Band on the Diaper Run

Freakin

Magnolia does this thing now where she tells stories while she draws them out.  Today she was drawing stories about houses.  In one picture all the lines in the drawing were wavy to convey a haunted house.. .  Then while telling the story to accompany the picture, she said, "It was scary.  It was so FREAKIN scary."  I don't even say "freakin."

 

 In this one each person in every apartment got a present except for one, he got a lump of coal.  And someone broke into the house and stole a few things (the arrow shows how he got in)  I think she was thinking about that lame thief who broke into my car and stole my GPS.

 

Anyway, we're gearing up for my sister's wedding next weekend.  Magnolia is stoked for her "performance" as a flower girl.  June is thrilled to put on the ballerina-esque dress. In fact she trew another massive tantrum because she had to take the dress off yesterday.  It lasted until I carried her kicking and screaming out of the taylor shop.  Fun.  I hope she's as excited wearing it when she walks down the aisle.  I will be so freakin proud!

Their daughter, Magnolia, was born in 2004 and started touring with the band at 10 weeks. June, their second girl, was born early this year. The whole family is touring the world right now.
