PreSchool


The kids go to the First Baptist Academy pre-school on Monday's and Wednesday's. Recently the music department put together a program to showcase the talent of the various classes at the Academy. Of course we had out the camcorder and camera to document the moment. Anita and I were very proud of Annika and Andrew...they sang beautifully!

Dallas Zoo Trip



Anita, the kids, her mom Kerstin, and our friends from Sweden (Guhn, David, & Lily) went to the Dallas Zoo. They had a good time and David (the photographer) took a lot of good pictures. We enjoyed their stay with us and look forward to their next visit.

Learning to Fly


The kids have been learning how to ride their bikes without training wheels. While teaching them, we learned a valueable tip from some of our neighbors that have older children. Don't do it on the concrete! First, they're going too fast and have trouble with control. Second, if they fall, expect an injury. Finally, it takes longer to learn good balance. Instead, take them to a school field and train in the grass. It was amazing how quick they got it...and without any injuries!

Midieval Times

I don't know how many of you have been to the Midieval Times, but if not you should go at least once. Apparently it's been in the DFW metroplex for over 20 years but this was my first time. We went with Guhn, David, and Lilly Nillson (swedish friends) and had a great time together. The next day I built a sword, shield, and axe for Andrew so we could do battle and joust with each other.
