Puttin on the Hits in KC!

Flash Back was their name and dancing was there game! They came up with a 10 song mix: #1-Super Star #2-Hit me with your best shot #3-Laffy Taffy #4-I Love Nascar #5-First Date #6 Spice Girls "I'll tell you what I want" #7-Grease Lightning #8-Let's get Physical #9-Thriller #10-Numa Numa! Elyse, Neisha, Saije and Maria put on the best show KC has ever seen! They had every wig known to man and the costumes were awesome! They are already thinking up something for next year. The points possible were 5 per area and total was 15 and they recieved a 14.3/4. How is that possible we have no idea, but They WON! They took 1st place! There were so many great talents. It is about time that all the years of putting on plays at Grandma Larsen's and dancing in our basement paid off! They won $150.00, free movie rentals and a certificate for Chinesse food. We have it on tape I will try to remind the fgirls to bring it down to the lower 48 this summer.

Trace has a new hunting partner

Ya it's true and mommy ain't happy! Another DOG! Trace came home from the neighbors and brought home a little friend. I thought that Andrew would march him right back over there and take it back, but I was wrong. He told Trace that he could have the dog if he fed it and cleaned up after it. Ya right! I knew it would be me so I was all prepared to send the dog back. Well the feeding went well, but then the clean up came and I wasn't sure Trace was going to make it through it. All the sudden you hear, Dad I can't do it! Then, Son are we gona take the dog back?
Then Dad I'll puke! Do you want me to puke? Then, Ham that's what you have to do when you have a dog. Then, If I touch it I'll puke, It is gushy not hard! Then I came in and helped pack the dogs belongings and Trace ran over and plugged his nose and tried with all his heart to pick it up and when his breath ran out he screamed, I am going to die if I have to pick that up!
Well Muck didn't die. I whispered in his ear to ask dad if he would show him how to clean up after a dog so he can learn. Lars happily showed hem and Trace has been doing it ever since! Yea! I mean Boo000!! I wanted to send the dog back! His name is Tanner and he is the newest addition to our home in KC!

A Visit To Juneau, Ak

Juneau, AK
Cherie had to go to a conference for Head Start and got to spend 4 days in sunny Juneau. Usually it is very rainy. She said that it was sunny because she brought her bright and cheery personality to share with everyone! There are 31,000 people that live there. It has nothing but trees and water! The big Cruise ships come in the summer months and dock. That is a big $ maker. She also got to visit the Glacier and had many warm walks on the docks.

Pictures of King Cove

One is from the top of the pass looking down on King Cove. A shot of Peter Pan Cannery and boat dropping off their catch. A seal in the Lagoon. It only freezes the halfwhere the fresh water comes in from the streams. Standing on the Ferry dock, I took a picture across the bay from where we live. Our house is the one on the far right.
