Skateboarding Compitition April, 2009

This is Nicholas, Stephanie's first child, and of course our grandson. He is really into skateboarding so his parents entered him into his first skateboard competition on April 18, 2009. He did really well for one of the youngest there and his first time. He is 7 years old. We went to cheer him on which was alot of fun. We look forward to more competitions. Check out the slide show below for a few of his many skateboarding moves.

Mardi Gras Fun on the Cruise

When we went on our cruise we stayed the night in New Orleans. We then toured the city. At a flea market we found these Mardi Gras Masks which we wore on Christmas night on the cruise ship. Also as we were walking the streets of New Orleans trucks drove down the street with Santa in them and threw out beaded necklaces.
