At Last!!

o.k So I am 2 swim meets behind and I CANNOT figure out how to download video of their meets to my computer. It is a new camcorder and way to fancy for my liking. I don't know what I am doing wrong...but I can watch the video on the computer, I just can't download and save it. Brooke, I will hire you to be my personal blogging trainer until I can get the hang of this...are you up for the job? Oh well. It was sooo much fun watching them race. We had a great time. They are both doing so well, especially in the butterfly. I think it is for sure their best stroke. Taking after Dad I guess. Anyway, if I ever figure it out I will show video of them trashing their competition. We also went to the festival of trees later in the day and that was fun too! Brians favorite tree was the Raiders tree and especially the fireplace with the Bronco ball on fire inside! Too bad the Raiders stink this year...however they did beat the Broncos the other day, so thats all that really matters. It is such a great time of year, I love everything about it ...if only I could sit inside the house and watch it snow instead of having to drive in it!

Exciting stuff!

So Tyson has finally lost his first tooth. He was very anxious as a lot of his friends lost their teeth last year! I kept telling him it was because his teeth were so tough! It didn't really help. What's sad is that I actually cried when he lost it. My baby is growing up. Pathethic, I know...but it's like he's losing his baby teeth...getting grown up teeth. I really don't like it. Anyway, he was very concerned that the tooth fairy was going to take his tooth away, because he wanted to keep it! I told him I would e-mail the tooth fairy and let her know. Thank heavens she got the e-mail in time! Sydney just finished a RAD kids program of self defense. Don't ask me what the RAD stands for.,..I can't remember. You can look it up online and see if there is classes in your area. Anyway...all the 4th graders do it at our school and it is a really neat program. It teaches them how to get away from a "bad" person if they are being abducted or attacked. It also teaches saftey from internet, to fire, to just about everything! Here are some cute pictures of Sydney fighting off the bad guy. She may be little, but boy she can be fiesty! I feel confident that no one would mess with her once she starts fighting back! Kylie has her first swim meet a week from today. Brian is so excited he can hardly stand it! I am so nervous I can hardly stand it! So check back next week...hopefully I'll get around to blogging about her first meet experience. Keep your fingers crossed for her!
