Bentley competed in her first skating competition this past Saturday. There were four girls in her division and she tied for first with one other skater. She's worked really hard this last year and we are so proud of her. She had quite the cheering crowd, especially at 8:30 am. Thanks for everyone's support. She loves the sport and had a great time performing. Okay, here we go...we're officially in for the 2nd generation of figure skating in our family.

Little Jocelyn and Max--First time campers!Items to remember if I EVER want to take a baby camping again:
1. Naps are out of the question.
2. So are pack n' plays--baby only screams.
3. Watermelon...good!
4. Chances of them being wide awake at 4 am--VERY HIGH.
5. Driving baby around lake at 4:30 am--only option if you want happy campers around you.
6.Sleeping in car off side of road at 5 am...well, it's better than not sleeping at all.

Other items to note:
7. Deep fried fish is the best!
8. Bentley loves watching fish be gutted and cleaned.
9. Walkie-talkies cause kids to fight too much.
10. Somen noodles and musubi's taste awesome on a camping trip.
