Paseo (I think this is translated into the formal procession during a Spanish Bull Fight)

Shout out to Coco for all the research and creativity! Where would we be without you? Somewhere way less interesting for sure.

Jamboree '10 Theme


Folks - It's time to pick a theme for Jamboree '10. We are just about 8 months out and the planning is kicking into full gear or high swing...whatever.

Over the next 15 days the blog will be open for you to post your best and brightest ideas. If no one posts than I will have total control over the theme and all matching outfits (really it is in your best interest to post other ideas).

So - here is my best and brightest... Mexican Wrestlers and Mujeres Bellas
I can't wait to see Brian, Jason, Coco and AJ in wrestling outfits!!! It will make for some AWESOME family pics not to mention Christmas cards :)

I also think the women will look quite lovely in coordinating shirts like the one above...we will not have to wear wigs, but you can if you want to.

We can make or buy cute things like this Obama loving one above to remember the Jamboree by! Or below are some really great alternatives -




The food will natural match the theme and I think everyone will be happy in the food department!

The monkeys are adjusting to the new environment quite well. They pretty much have the run of the place, but help keep things clean too. They like cheese crackers and grapes or oranges for snack time...I know what your thinking, and monkeys don't like banana's all the time!

Beer with Breakfast

We had to go to Walmart early this morning to get eggs for breakfast. Manny insisted that we get some rootbeer to quaff with breakfast. So we had Beer(even if it was the root kind) with our breakfast this morning.
