Dubai looks like fun.

Kalani lost her first tooth today.  She bit a carrot about 2-3 weeks ago and that made it loose.  So, while she was playing a video game it came out.  She is very excited for the tooth fairy to come visit her.  I guess Kalani is going to be loosing teeth while Mason gets his teeth in.  So from now on Kalani is going to have a hole in her smile.  And I am sure the hole is just going to get bigger since she has another loose tooth!

Bearded Dragons are famous for their large spikey beards and ability to turn them jet black as a display of dominance, anger, or to attract a female.  Our very own Big Daddy rarely has reason to display his beard, the few times I’ve seen it were when we held him up to a mirror so he could attempt to intimidate the “other dragon” (Kalani says he was protecting his family).  However, today I was giving him a bath, and he either got really mad at me, or wanted to mate.  (lower-left picture below)

I love having my sister near me because she is a “Party Planner.”  She is starting her own business make it myne where she plans and throws parties.  She wanted to do a Valentine Party and mentioned it to our aunt and uncle.  They said okay and she started planning.  We had to come dressed as a “couple” and had some fun food and played some fun games.  It was great to see everyone dressed up.  Matt and I came as Lois Lane and Clark Kent.  I was surprised that Matt would dress up when as a child he wouldn’t even dress up for Halloween.  I ordered glasses and a t-shirt online and even got him to color his hair black.

Other couples seen that night include a Pink Lady and T-bird, Morticia and Gomez Addams, Mary Poppins and Bert, Ron and Harmonie, Barbie and Ken, and Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne (who won the best costume).  Thanks to my fun family and friends for a wonderful night.

When someone sends you an email asking if you’d like to catch dinner and the game, courtside, the answer is “Yes, please.”

Following are a few short clips from television intermixed with video from my camera phone. At the beginning you can see us taking our seats in the lower-left corner of the screen (I’m in the purple shirt). A few scenes are shown both from my phone and the TV.
