Jokes by Jamie

The boys have been working on their standup routines lately.  Jamie's got his jokes down, but he chuckles after he delivers the punch line, so he's got a little work to do.  Here's a little teaser of his schtick:

How does a cow fly?
It runs.

How does a 6 yr old climb the table?
It eats stuff.

Chocolate and Tomato Ice Cream!

Go watch this cool video and listen to Harlan playing trombone, trumpet, and horn.

If you teach kids, share it with them and tell me if they liked it.

Presents

I just wanted to thank all of my family and friends for the thoughtful gifts they gave us for Christmas and Hanukkah.  It was so fun seeing the kids' faces light up.  We are blessed and thankful.
