Stairway to Heaven

My cousin Dan is a major led zeppelin fan - as we all should be! I know at one point he had aspiration's to become a singer - he still might, and there is nothing wrong with that. I recall one evening years ago he tried singing the stairway. This You Tube video is a very close approximation to Dan's performance that night.


Enjoy!

Morgan's 6th Birthday

It's mighty weird to see your little girl go off to school. When she tells me stories she expects me to know all about the people she is dealing with and how her school is setup. She hasn't come to the realization yet that others do not know what she knows. Some never come to that realization in life.

Katie went to a "blessing way" Sunday afternoon. A blessing way is like a baby shower but you don't give gifts. Her friend is on baby number 3 so there is no need for more baby crap. So anyway I had the two girls for the afternoon. I thought I would be the good dad and take them to the playground were they could run around get tired out and then nap the rest of the time. We walked down to the playground and Morgan wanted to show me the monkey bars and how well she could climb them. So as soon as we got there she got all the way to the top and promptly fell off landing flat on her back. I had to carry her and Gwen back to the house. That is about 90lbs of wiggling crying children. So the rest of my time watching them was torture as both of them were crying at the top of their lungs. Morgan is fine now...I think anyway.

Also I apologize for the spelling errors in the subtitles. I had to redo them and I was in no mood to check on them.

The 1st day of School

Morgan started Kindergarten today at Spaulding Elementary aka Primary school for you Brits. Katie is going back to work soon and Morgan and Gwen will have to go to daycare in the morning before school starts. This means that even though we live less then 100 feet away from the school Morgan has to take the bus. Oh well its Morgan's first lesson that when you enter the "machine" aka US educational system many things don't make sense. We also got some fun pics and videos of Gwen. She has become very daring recently. There is a shot of Gwen and I going down a slide at the end of the video which is not evident but its a really long tube that twists and turns. After we went down together once she went as fast as she could to get back up to the top and then wanted to go head first by herself. Morgan never would have done that at her age. Its amazing how different two kids can be.
