There's a New Sheriff in Town!

Joshua and Marian's school held a very well done Barn Dance.  We paid for dinner, and it was tasty.  Then you could buy tickets so you could buy other fun items.  I didn't know there would be ticket purchasing, and I only had $6, which was spent very quickly!  I let the kids each choose one of the fun items to get with their tickets.  Joshua chose a Sheriff Badge.  Marian got a fabulous mustache, and Callie chose a cowboy hat.  I will admit that it was a lot more work than I expected, taking all the kids without Dan. (He is having a wonderful time visiting his brother, now that his week of training in LA is done.)

So, here are the kids, all ready to go, dressed in their cowboy finest....

.... Okay, Joshua was the only one in his cowboy finest!  (Thanks Grandma and Grandpa White for the hats- they have lasted what, 3 years now?!)

During gym class, the kids had been learning the dances.  There was a Square Dance Caller who kept things very fun.  Joshua is showing me the moves he learned in class. 

Callie had no idea what to do, but she was out in the middle of the crowd, shaking her thing for most of the time.  Here, I caught her doing the "Hokey Pokey".  She's so cute!

Since Marian had a marvelous mustache, everyone had to try it on.  Here is Joshua.

(Dangit!  My pictures are out of order and I can't figure out how to move them on the Apple!  The drag and drop isn't moving them.  So, this was not the order these last ones should be in!)
Delaney is having fun with Callie's hat.  Marian is just having fun!

Yes, even I had to put on the 'stache!  And Callie's hat!

And last but not least, is Marian, rocking the mustache.  She loved it and wore it most of the night.  It was the coolest part of the evening. Well, that and Callie boogieing!

Your kids are amazingly cute. I love your photos of them. Especially Joshua's pose in the first on, and Marian's expression while wearing the mustache.

What cuties!

Those are funny savannah had fun looking at those pictures too, she was so confused though why mirian was so big in the tree picture she thought joshua was bigger, and I said, "well she is standing in a tree." she said, "ohhhh" It was funny. She thought she was another kid in your family.

Our stroller is a Chariot Cougar II. They are quite pricey, but the best. The chassis (w/o any attachments) is about $600...so with the jogging, strolling and bike attachments, it is close to $1000! We found ours on craigslist.org in the Bay Area for $275! I LOVE it! You should get one for sure!
