Thrilling Dance Moves

Jacob loves to dance to Beat It & Thriller. He wanted to post this video on his blog.

Jacob says, "I like Michael Jackson because he is the best singer in the world. My favorite songs are Thriller & Beat It. Below you will see me dancing to Thriller with my brothers. Someday I hope to take dance lessons and learn how to be a performer (singer & dancer) when I get bigger."

MJ Influence

All three boys have developed a passion for dancing to the cool beats of various Michael Jackson songs. It started when their childcare provider and her children got them dancing to Thriller in preparation for a planned Halloween show for parents. A friend brought them over their first Michael Jackson CD, This Is It, and the rest is history...

We listen to MJ in the van and at home. They like Thriller, Beat It, Jam and Billy Jean the best. My favorite is "Man in the Mirror". Everyone should listen to that song - it has a great message.

James also likes to sing. He even got up in front of a large group of students at camp to sing some Beat It lyrics.

"Beat It" has also been among Kyle's first words.

Geesh. Who knew.

Hello again from Las Vegas!

Hello James,

How are you? We are good. We are just making dinner. It is only 6:40pm here but will be 9:40pm there. You will already be in bed! Anyway, we miss you lots and I wanted to post a picture of what we did today, which was horseback riding! Daddy's horse's name was "big Joe". I can't remember what mine was called. I rode on a girl horse. We were out near Red Rock Canyon in Nevada. I have lots of pictures, but will only post a few here. Miss you and see you soon,

11-06-10: Hello from Las Vegas

Hello cutie-James,

How are you? We are good. We just spoke to you on Skype. It was really great to talk to you. We are just heading out the door but I wanted to post you a sneak-peek at your special gift. You said that you really wanted a snowglobe so Daddy and I looked high and low for the perfect one just for you. We found a Las Vegas snowglobe and we are bringing it home with us tomorrow. Do you like it?

We love you James, see you tomorrow.

Dear James,

How are you today? Daddy and I are good. We are still in Las Vegas and will be here until Sunday. We will get home late Sunday night and will be so glad to see you sleeping in your bed. Grandma and Grandpa are taking care of you and we are sure that you are having a great time with them. Hopefully you are not bickering with your brothers too much!

Daddy wants me to tell you that he misses your hugs and your big, happy smile. Both of us love it when you wrap your arms around our necks and give us lots of love. You are such a happy, loving boy and you are a true pleasure to be with. You get along with everyone and bring lots of happiness to our family.

Anyway, that is all for the moment but we hope you like reading your blog when you are older. This is the first post.
