Fast flying Miranda

We were housesitting/babysitting for some friends last week and they had the best slope on their street for gliding. Here is a little video of Miranda doing just that. She had the best time ever!

Breakdancing Bella

Bella decided that she was a cool breakdancer. She is so hilarious!

Ice Ice Baby by "The Boys"

Last night we got together with some of our friends for a Valentine's dinner. After the dinner, we had fun with a bit of karaoke. SO FUNNY!!!!!!!
This is our friends Ben, Mike, Todd, Ricky (my honey) and Fred performing "Ice Ice Baby". You might need to watch it several times to be able to see each one of these guys with their dance moves. It has been a long time since I have laughed so hard!

Straight A's!!!

Yeah for Miranda....she got awards last week for straight A's for the first & second nine weeks, straight A's for the first semester and for outstanding attendance (she had only one absence for the whole semester!)
Here she is receiving her awards from Mr. B, the principal and her teacher, Ms. Black.

We really love Ms. Black. She is a really great teacher. She has really helped Miranda to love math and science!

TV-watching snake

Ok...if you know me at all...you know that I am not super comfortable with snakes. Well, this was just too funny not to share. Rick's snake, ISIS, was chillin' with him and Miranda the other night. She was totally in a trance with the tv. She wouldn't take her eyes off it. [oh, and please no comments on the Christmas tree in the background! :) ]

Park Day

How I love these two girls. We had a lot of fun the other day when we went to my friend Jolie's neighborhood park.
This is Bella doin' the "peek a boo".

Is this the face of an angel?

Here Miranda was determined to conquer the rock wall....

...and she DID! So proud!

Miranda's Arctic Animal Condo- Art Project

Miranda was learning about the real ice hotel. So they had a project to make some sort of ice looking project. She made this and got a 100! She did all the work and all I did was carve the styrofoam where she told me to. Pretty cool, huh?

The inside has more animals resting in their new digs. Gotta love that girl!
