You want a car?

Scottie, car salesman extraordinaire!

Hannah got the camera!

Hannah wanted to wear Mommy's coat...


Scott wanted in.


Hannah takes up photography...Hi, Mommy!


Sometimes when Daddy's not helping you point the camera, you might accidentally take a picture of your shorts...Daring!

RenFest 2008

Pauline and I took the kids to the Minnesota Renaissance Festival this year. It was lots of fun - petting zoos, animal rides, and lots of crazy people wearing costumes.

The twins got to ride a llama. I was hoping for the elephant ride... but you know moms. They just don't want their two year olds to ride elephants for some reason. Maybe next year...

They both had a lot of fun with the llama. Hannah wanted to pet/yank the hair of the llama's mane. We had to constantly remind her to keep her hands on the bars.

We also found a booth with giant bubble wands. The kids have had a fascination with bubbles recently, so this was a lot of fun for them...



Taking twin two year olds to a wide open fair (with lots of crazy people in costumes) can be an adventure. Scott and Hannah spent about half the time in the stroller... and about half the time running away from me and Pauline.



Next year, we're going with leashes. Just kidding... maybe.

Sometimes, you just gotta dance...

We've all been there. You're quietly dancing to the tune in your birthday card and mom sneaks up behind you with a camera. Ten years ago it might have just been an silly picture or a home movie you drag out for a laugh every few years. Welcome to the YouTube age!



I can't wait to share this with Scott's first girlfriend.

RenFest pics up next.

Or maybe it will take a couple of months to get that video

Sorry - I know I promised I'd get the tickle video up in a day or two. I'm a horrible blogger... what can I say? I'm going to make it up to you, though. I have the tickle video, Scott Dancing video, and pictures from our trip to the RenFest this summer!

Here's the tickle fight...



Scottie Dancing, RenFest - all coming up next.
