Jonathan as Mike Teevee
Madi truly enjoys and thrives being in the spotlight, Jake too. So many videos on here involve the two of them singing or dancing or both. Jonathan doesn't mind the spotlight, but really has found that he gets his greatest enjoyment out of running the spotlight. Tonight however, Jonathan blew me (and the entire audience) away! Here he is singing his Mike Teevee song from Willy Wonka. He really nailed it!! Don't forget, if you live close, you still have a chance to see Jonathan do this again Sunday at 2!

Willy Wonka
If you are a local reader I hope you come see Willy Wonka tonight at 7, Fri at 7, Sat at 7 or Sun at 2...you know where it is. If you are a homeschooler you can get in for $3 instead of the regular admission $10 for adults and $5 for kids.
While I was on the Theatre website getting the picture of the poster, I found this funny picture from Into the Woods...
Old Rough and Ready
We just finished our last last President study for the year, here is a picture of Zachary Taylor and my nephew with the same name.
Alphabet soup
I got this from a blog that was linked to a friends blog...
A is for age:
38
B is for burger of choice:
From the grill, cheese (ideally cheddar), ketchup and sometimes pickle OR From Shady Glen in CT!
C is for what kind of car you drive:
2003 Honda CRV with the extra third row seat because I'm always driving extra kids around. We also have two falling apart 1995 Hondas that Mike likes driving.
D is for your dog's name:
No dog, Darwin was our last dog.
E is for essential item you use everyday:
Shower (three times yesterday...we're keeping our AC off as long as we can)
F is for favorite TV show at the moment:
Dancing with the Stars and American Idol have ended so now it's back to Reruns of King of Queens when I get in bed (and Seinfeld if I stay awake long enough). We've also been recording Nanny 911 which is apparently on CMT daily.
G is for favorite game:
Depends, Skip Bo or Scrabble with Mike.
H is for Hometown:
Does this mean where we live or where I'm from? I'm trying not to put where I live (although it is probably on here somewhere)
I is for instruments you play:
Took piano lessons as a child, but can't play.
J is for favorite juice:
I don't drink much juice, maybe white grape peach.
K is for whose butt you'd like to kick:
Hmm, tough one....
L is for last restaurant you ate at?
Bob Evans
M is for your favorite Muppet:
Kermit the frog
N is for Number of Piercing:
One in each ear that has earrings everyday...(two more in one ear and one more in the other that I could get earrings in if I tried, but I usually don't)
O is for overnight hospital stays:
WAY too many last year with Mike. Two with Madi when she was 5. AND too many with Jonathan between the ages of 3 days and 3 years. Two nights when Jonathan was born, two nights when Madi was born. One night when I was about 5 and had to get my extra tooth removed (at a far away hospital because the local nurses were on strike, all by myself). Jake has never spent the night in a hospital (he was born in a birthing center and we went home in about 5 hours) but I did spend one night in the hospital when I was pregnant with Jake for a weird pain that never got diagnosed.
P is for people you were with today:
Mike and the kids, but Mike has gone to work and the kids are still sleeping.
Q is for what you do with your quiet time:
read books and blogs
R is for biggest regret:
Mike having the ERCP (which cause all the damage in October)
S is for status:
Home in my PJs spending early morning quiet time on the computer before the kids get up. It is the morning of opening night for Willy Wonka!!
T is for time you woke up today:
Before 6 when Mike got up, back to sleep until 7.
U is for what you consider unique:
Maybe our lifestyle, but in our crowd it's not unique.
V is for vegetable you love:
corn on the cob, broccoli, salad
W is for worst habit:
WORRYING!!!
X is for x-rays you've had:
mostly just my teeth
Y is for yummy food you ate today:
Nothing yet today, tacos last night.
Z is for zodiac sign:

Tampa Bay Devil Rays
On Sunday we went to the Devil Rays baseball game. It was family day and the first 7500 kids got those free yellow foam giveaways. Our seats were right next to the Sting Ray tank, and Jake and I got to touch them (this might be the first picture of myself that I have on my blog!) AND...the best part...after the game the kids got to run the bases!!! It was so cool!
