We [still] rock
Sure, we are nearing or slightly "over the hill" but we still love to rock. Tonight we headed out to a Skillet concert in Orlando. The show was HOT!!! ...in more ways than one. I'm pretty sure that the AC was not working, so it was more than slightly warm.
Jen Ledger, Skillet's drummer who stole the show all night long, improvised with an amazing drum solo to fill the time when one of Ben's guitars broke. Below is a small sample of the show...

Many thanks to Shelby for watching the girls while we went to the show. Jodi - YOU MISSED OUT!

1st Dance Class
Today was Bekah's 1st dance class. She seemed really excited all week, but anyone who knows Bekah knows she needs lots of encouragement to do anything she doesn't want to do! So I was concerned that she would get in there and freeze. Or maybe even want to quit entirely. We talked and practiced all week, and I let her wear her dance clothes the other day and got some great videos of her "dancing".
Dance #1
For more of her dances, see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZEX6Nadd4U (notice the tongue) and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJG6iTa1eIE
All my fears were for nought! She did amazingly well at dance class! She listened to the teacher, obeyed, and generally had fun. When we were getting in the car, I told her how good she did. She said, "I know. I didn't even cry. It's because I loved it." :) Later in the car she said, "but now I know how to dance, so we don't need to go back." That lead into a great conversating on practicing things to get better and better. Here are some pics of her in dance class.

Above: All girls are at back of class facing the teacher, but Bekah decided she should stay in front next to the teacher. :)

Trip to Brazil
In January Justin took a trip for business to Sao Paulo, Brazil. Below are some of the pics. I was really impressed by the architecture of the city, its pure size (bigger than NYC), and how nice the city was. Sure, there were poor sections of town...but overall it was a very metropolitan, modern city. Abraços!
