Film festival

Hey y'all, just catching up on some cute videos.  We've finally gotten into the groove here in Ohio, so here's what the kids are doing these days...

The new routine

With Brooke starting work at the hospital now, we're in The New Arrangement.  That makes for exciting, chaotic dinnertimes when Mommy gets home, and attempts by Daddy to entertain the kids...

Graduation and stuff

Hey friends,
Here's a clip of the kids practicing walking across the stage for their own graduation.  (Actually, they're running up and down the ramp, which would have been fun to do during the ceremony, as well I think.)  And don't worry, he was fine after his little spill.

Yes, that's a domino on the thrift-shop guitar...

Cooperation!  How do we keep this going?

One year old!

Happy First Birthday to our little Hannah!  We had a fine celebration yesterday with some friends who were also gathering to celebrate our graduation - the cake and singing were much enjoyed.  I also took a video of her this morning, showing off her new footwork.

Jack and the Beanstalk (revised)

Hannah has now officially started saying, "uh-oh." She says it like a conversation piece. It's quite difficult to catch on film, but below is our first successful filming.





And this may be one of my favorite videos ever. Emmett has been playing all the characters of Jack and the Beanstalk lately, and this was his rendition of the Giant:

Music!

We've got some musical fun happening around the family. First, some fun with kazoos caught on film.



Singing with Uncle Bill, and Emmett working the pedals:




And a duet with his great-grandmother!



Trying the dulcimer - with Hannah on percussion:

Fun at the table

Considering how much time is spent at our table, it seems appropriate to have some fun there...
