Happy New Year

From our kingdom to yours, have a very Happy New Year!

Four EYES

The prince, looking studious and oh, so handsome in his new specs! He's loving them, but then, he hasn't been to school yet and gotten any razzin' from his peeps!

Dancing Queen

Here's the princess, looking HOT HOT HOT in her cool dance outfit and also a photo of her in action. This sistah has got it goin' on!

Final (hopefully) Moped Update!

As the photo indicates, the king is too big for the moped. Although it says it'll support 250#, and he SWEARS the problem was that there wasn't enough air in the tires, what you're looking at is a sad, sad day--really, I had tears rolling down my face as I took the photos (okay, I was laughing my butt off, and the tears were a result of that...)--as the king had to push his moped up the hill the way a toddler would "peddle" a trike up hill. The prince was also too big for the moped though he could get up the hill. It really only "fits" the princess! Se La Vi!

Drunken Daughter

I'm at work today, and the princess is doing a VIP presentation. Totally in her element. All about her. She's showing the medal she got for singing in a talent show on the cruise ship. She tells the kids that the kid center is where you go, and I quote, "WHEN YOU PARENTS WANT TO GO TO THE BAR." Her teacher was cracking up laughing.

She then points to a picture of herself, holding a strawberry daiquiri, and tells the kids, "It didn't have any alcohol."

A couple of hours later, she gets in the van and gets very excited to hear her FAVORITE song playing--Whiskey Lullaby.

I give up!!!

Royal Treatment

The king is currently in "sunny" Florida--well, maybe not so sunny. When he arrived he called to say it was only 60* there. At the time, it was 58* here. I said, "So you flew 2000 miles for 2 degrees!" It's warmer there now and much colder here so I guess he's the winner, anyway!

Speaking of winning--his Boise service center was named "Service Center of the Year"!!! He knew he was in the running for it, but didn't find out until Wednesday night when they handed out awards!! YIPPEE for him. One of his employees in Billings was one of the top Employees of the Year too! It's very nice for him to get some recognition for all his hard work.

They worked at a YMCA Camp Service Project yesterday. He said he's never seen cockroaches that big except for in display cases!! Meetings this morning and a tour of the area this afternoon. More meetings Saturday, and he flys home Sunday. He's got to be up at 3 AM FL time to catch his flight. He'll be sleeping in his chair by 5 PM our time!!

Low Rider

If Rich's knees--in relation to the size of the bike--aren't enough, the tall boy should give you an idea of just how "LARGE" this beast is!!

I was able to get him to pose for you--on the bike. He's nothing if not politically correct!

Too much snow to fire this baby up. So sing along with us instead:

Slow Ride...

Take it Easy...

or maybe

Low rider, take a little trip, take a little trip...

or maybe

I don't wanna grow up, I'm a Toys R Us kid...
