We even had flowers for the girls.
We rode in the ridiculously huge limo. . .
Went to dinner. . .
(Here is the fire spewing Godzilla onion.)
And then went to the dance. (Hazel was a little tired by the end, and didn't like the flash on the camera.)

Daddy Daughter Dance
Yesterday was the daddy daughter dance at our new gym. We went with some friends as a group. We got all dressed up. . .
We even had flowers for the girls.

This Is It
What happens when you let you kids watch too much So You Think You Can Dance, and then rent a little MJ.
Long, but entertaining.

(Nate and I were racing to see who could post first. So here's another camera angle)
gotta love iphones.

Good Dog!
Hazel often pretends that she's a puppy. She even has a puppy name -- Tootsie Roll. One day, on the way home from church, Tootsie Roll rolled down her window to bark at passing cars.
The funniest part though, which I missed getting on video, happened when we pulled up to the stoplight and there was a real dog with it's head out the car window. Hazel started barking at the chihuahau next to us. I'm sure that dog's owner thought we were a little strange. But hey, Hazel loves making new friends of all varieties!

15 loads of laundry
Washed in 25 minutes.
My washer broke again. It was broken before Christmas. I was without a washing machine for four weeks. They got it fixed a couple days before Christmas. Then it broke again a week later. Kind neighbors let me do a couple loads when I was desperate for whites or jeans for the kids. But we finally ran out of towels, gym clothes, church and work clothes, and socks. By then we had 15 loads of laundry and I couldn't bring myself to impose on anyone for that. So we found a laundromat. The nearest one is 15 miles from our house!
Kids thought it was very fun to put the quarters and soap into the machines.
We brought a movie to watch on the laptop while we waited (although it wasn't very long).
Everyone chipped in to help.
I decided against spending more than the $25 I had already spent to wash my clothes, and I took everything home wet. My dryer still works at least.
Fast forward a week.
The repair man came on Tuesday. It worked fine when he came to check it out. (of course) So I ran a load after he left.
Still broken.
He can't come back until the 29th.
That will make 2 months without a washer.
Is it a sign? Maybe I should just get a new one.
Looks like I'll be at the Laundromat again this weekend.

Seriously? Again?
I'm sick.
Maybe I'll add it to my weekly exercise routine.
At least the tire place repairs them for free. The will even change the spare back out for me and put it back under the car.
And this was me at 7:30 this morning, trying to take kids to school.
