Still going....

Well the decades just flew by ....

We have had Count Thurston for 15 years and he was a least 1 or 2 years old when we got him and he is still going strong. He has just 2 teeth left and 0 personality! Shall we see how long he will keep going???????




NICE TEETH!!! He is so old he even wore the black color off the end his nose from licking it too much!!! He is so weird!!!!!!!!

Nutcracker is over!!!

Well, She did it and she looked awesome! Thanks to everyone that came to see her. She had a lot of fun and she was very tired. We did have the great opportunity to get to know the Sugar Plum Fairy.



Olga from Sarasota Ballet stayed at our house while perfoming with us. She was very nice and kind. Thank you Olga for the great job and the gifts! We are now back to our regular hectic lives. Will post soon.

Thanks again everyone!

Tea Time

Anna had a great time at her " 5th Birthday Princess Tea Party" We had tea sandwiches and little cookies before we played pin the tea bag on the tea cup and sang " I'm a little tea pot" . All the girls were so cute. I still cannot believe that she is 5!!!

Johnny strikes up the band!

Well, after many years John has found his trumpet. Here he is practicing his scales. As of this date we have not scheduled a concert tour, but will keep you posted.

Happy Halloween!

Well this year we had a unicorn (Anna), smarty pants (Austin), an ipod (Amber) and not pictured is a football player (Adam) (he wore a picture of a quarter taped to his back....get it... quarterback?!?!) They had fun and we now have too much candy in the house!

Happy Birthday Anna Josephine!

Happy Birthday Baby Gal!

I cannot believe that you are 5. I can still remember every detail of the day you were born. I am so amazed by you. You have grown up in so many ways.


You seem to be over you naughty phase. You are so funny and smart. I am so thankful for you and all your sweetness.
I love you very very much!!!
