Just a little stuck...

Well its been a while since I've been here. Times have been busy. Lately we have been kayaking a lot. The rivers have been up and down. Here is a video of me just a little stuck. Its pretty funny.

Pooches on the road

Here are the pooches riding in the van. having a good time. Both looking happy right? Well they won't look that way for long--they are on the way to the vet...Surprise on them.

check them out now!

Look at my flowers now!

I don't know how long its been since I last posted about the flowers but look at them now!

All abloomin! Even after beein snowed upon last weekend.

Prom again

Prom musta been wonderful. although non of the large and wonderful prizes were won by my daughter. I think she did get a tatoo and ride a bull, runn through a maze, play las vegas type games and was hypnotyzed soo that sounds like a good time right?

Prom

Prom is arriving this weekend and things sure are different then when I did prom.
Girls:
The dresses are still as fancy and they still tan, get there hair done. Now they also get their nail and toes done.
Boys:
Some wear a tux others wear a suit some only wear whatever they have on at the time.

Limos:
Yes they still use limos but they also use Hummers and now the Party Busses. The latter is what my daughter will be on this year. I am of old school and think Yuck! a party bus thats not for prom but again that just dates me :)

Dates, Pictures, Dinner:

In the past you only went to prom IF you had a date, now you go to prom if you have a date or not. They take pictures throughout the night soo you might not get the old formal pics and if you do there probably won't be just 2 people in the picture, usually a group. Dinner is sometimes at a restaurant other times is a potluck at a parents house.

Then after the dance they now have this thing called AfterProm--its an event that once you go in you can't leave and if you do you can't go in again. Its from 12am to 6am. Then the kids go over to a friends house and sleep it off. About 11am the parents make breakfast for the sleeping kids and then send them home.
Prom over for another year.

Harlem Globetrotters

Last night we saw the Harlem Globetrotters.

It was awesome! Very good entertainment. Last time I saw them

was in the 70s. Of course now they have different players..Curly

and Meadowlark weren't there. They have new players Big Easy,

Skyscraper and Airport just to name a few. The show was basically

the same as I remember but updated. It was very funny and even

thought Amber didn't know who they were and what she was

going to other than a basketball game...... the kids really enjoyed

it...all 4 of us :)

Make sure you click on the photos to look at them in large format so you can see the people faces in the background espically in the shot with the little girl.

Before and After

Well we got the van back and here are some before and after shots...What happened??? Amber hit a mailbox when the roads were slick so we decided to get the van and mailbox fixed.
