Kids on Drugs





Dancing with the Alien

The reason this post is called “kids on drugs” is not the reason you think it is. This video was made before the parents were even up…at all. Scott thinks that this video is certified evidence that we made the right decision by medicating Abe for ADHD. (since obviously no awake parents=no stimulants for the day yet) The entire video is like an acid trip, maybe like the way Abe’s mind is always working.

I think this video is proof that I have geniusly  artistic children and someday they will rule the world. Just watch and see if you find your self humming “dancing with the alien, the alien, there is some poison right there.”

We can’t stop singing it.

Every Good thing must come to an end

Grandma shows us Abe’s brain waves. This was perhaps the highlight of the entire trip.

Abe also got a little shock when Grandma tested his nerves. The morbid curiosity overfloweth.

Side trip to Orinda

We love stopping by Orinda. It is a barrel of laughs and seriously you never know what to expect. I never take any pictures here because there is always someone who has a need. Thank you Ember and Jacob for reminding us how much we miss you. (We talk about it everytime we say good bye to you) and just because you never have much representation on the blog, please know, it’s been real!

On our way back home, we stopped after one block. Something stank. We went back to Mom’s. It was our shoes. We left them out the night before and something had peed all over them. Sorry about the kitchen sink MA!

The coast is the most

We finally camp in a Yurt, mixed reviews result.

Rachel spent 30 bones on this wicked cool eagle kite. I’m still trying to figure it out.

Doesn’t look like a big deal unless you run over it in your mazda at 60 mph.
