"I Wanna Be in Pictures!"

We took this video at dinner tonight. Hampton was being so silly! He wasn't wearing a shirt because he wanted to "take shower." We talked him into waiting until after dinner (since he asked while I was cooking!), but he refused to put his shirt back on. I decided that battle wasn't worth fighting, so...

Anyway, here's a video of a not-so-typical (well, probably typical) dinner at the Usher House.

Christmas 2009 and beyond...

It's been brought to my attention that I needed to update the blog, so I guess I'd better snap to it! HAHA! I'm sorry I haven't kept current on it. I'll try to do better.

We haven't had too many interesting things going on since Christmas around the Usher house. That is by design!! We had a nice, quiet holiday this year. Hampton enjoyed Christmas, though he didn't really understand what all was going on. We Skyped (video called) Mom and Dad while we opened presents, so they could see Hampton's excitement.

A few days after Christmas, my dad and brother (Hampton's PawPaw and Unka Jerl) came to visit. We had so much fun, but we forgot to take pictures!! We were so upset with ourselves everytime we'd forget our camera. Time just flew by too quickly. We enjoyed visiting the International Game Fishing Museum. We saw an alligator, fed Cheerios to some of the fish (not sure if this was "legal" or not!), and saw a few iguanas. We found lots of iguanas around town while they were here. We also went to the park, drove around downtown Fort Lauderdale and the A-1-A, and just played a lot here at the house.

So here are some pictures from Christmas and snapshots I've taken since...enjoy!!


Hampton fell asleep in the chair drinking milk (just too cute!)

Hampton got Play-doh for Christmas, and he loves it!

Is this a "Clint Usher" look-a-like or what?!!
