Kung Fu, er, Tae Kwon Do

When we're not doing pushups,
we're going to Tae Kwon Do class. We got there early and Danny got some one-on-one time.
A teacher asked as we were leaving, "Danny, do you listen to your Mommy and Daddy?"
"Well, sometimes I do, and sometimes I don't."
"If you listen better, you can get a belt, and a trophy. Can you listen better?"
"Well, um, no."

Later, at dinner, he told us he "was only joking!"

Reading

Reading, we are told, is fundamental.
So is bathing.

Vermont, Bradford Road style

Danny and Janine prepared for Germany's eventual beat-down of Argentina by dressing the part.We got stuck in some vicious 4th of July traffic in Vermont, but got lots of pro-Germany comments once we got out of the van. Here a German checks out his bunk bed. Danny was quite upset when initial reports indicated the bunk beds were missing. "I will never sleep!"Leigh entertained herself with a puppy.Danny ensnared a baby sitter in a whiffle ball game.Chasing Elsie.Theo the birthday girl.
