So I Think You Can't Dance

Thinking I CAN still dance, I decide to bust out some of my better moves for the girls and their friends. Adri looks at me and declares totally deadpan, "You embarrass me every day of my life." I think I might get voted off..

Crack Up

I'm talking to the girls about something I think is funny, and say "but that cracks me up!" to which Genie promptly replies "butt cracks crack me up!"

mmmm... ice cream.

On the road

Driving back from Tahoe, Adri read Genie's fortune on her fortune teller

Adri: You will travel many places.
Genie: What does that mean?
Jeanne: It means you're going to be on the road for at least another hour.
Genie: Won't the cars run over me?

When I grow up...

Adri and Josie were looking over my shoulder as I was doing the taxes...

Adri: "What are taxes?"
John: "It's when you give the government money."
Adri: "Once a year, right?"
John: "More like every day."
Josie: "I want to be a government when I grow up."

Happy Birthday Josie!

Here's a little video to celebrate 5 years of JoJo in our lives.

The dangers of being a fish.

Josie was watching me pour water into the fish tank...

Josie: "Is that for the fish to drink?"

Me: "No. I don't think fish have to drink."

Josie (very concerned): "Well then how do they stay healthy and not get kidney stones?"
