The Chance-Man is ready for a haircut! His long blonde locks

look pretty cool...

like he does here getting ready for the school "Sock Hop"

But, he says he's ready to lose some hair for the summer.

Still, he looks a bit nervous...

Can you believe how long that is???

Brace yourself....

Ta-da! This is a "shag"! It's all the rage with seven year old boys.

Then we took our little "Abercrombie & Fitch model" home & he had a tickle-fest with his

sisters & Boston to celebrate his new "do".

"Yeah - I'm still cool."

Bailey's Senior Prom - 2008

Don't her & Aaron look fabulous??

Although, this is how I normally see them...

Crazy kids


This is Aaron's dog "Bacon" - while this is not technically a "prom" picture, I just wanted you to see how this dog lays. His front legs are straight back behind him flat - what a cutie.

Speaking of cute...
These two are really made for each other.
Enough with the kissing already - geez!

There they go - off to enjoy their evening...and the rest of their life...
man, they grow up fast...

Kaden Jill - Six years old - 2008

Kaden Jill turns 6!!

First, we have cake...

Then, PRESENTS!!

What girl doesn't love shoes?

I think her favorite present, though, was her new bike. Here she is spotting it.

Now, here she goes trying it out. Just look at that raw athletic ability - she must get that from my side of the family (not).
She had a great birthday party with family then on Saturday, she had a big party at the neighborhood park with her friends. She had a Moonbounce & piniata - the works. Jack was in charge & I was afraid he wasn't going to make it through it, but then Bailey spotted him hula hooping and blowing bubbles with his sister, Shirley. He did just fine.

Bailey Jayne turns 18! Isn't she gorgeous?? The whole fam and Bailey's "beau", Aaron, went to Shogun Steakhouse for a celebration dinner!

OK, where's the dinner already - we're starving....

I think Kaden is starting to gnaw on her chopstick.

I know - let's do a present while we wait.

Score! A laptop for college!!

Come on man...chop faster...I said we are starving!

Woo-hoo! It's not a party till something is on fire.

Look at that beautiful smile! (Only about $5000 at the orthodontist) Bailey still loves cake and candles, and bubbles, and video games, and playing in the rain...maybe I haven't lost her to "adulthood" afterall.. Yummmm.......cake.....

This is a test blog! Mom - can you see this??????
