Pete, where did you get the leopard attire? I'd like to have something like that - got a bengal cat and that would be perfect to have.
 
OK, here's my little darlin...

It's a snuggy I put on backwards. Got it Peir 1 Imports for me wife.

Ah, ok - thanks for the info. Always looking for leopard attire.

Since this is daughter pic day - here is two of mine. One from two Chistmases ago and the other from a day out on her soon to be in laws boat last summer.

I'm guessing a few of us need to have a "how to" intimidate the daughters new date thread, though you're long past that point.
 
So, since this has turned in the official "bring your daughter to BGO" thread...



They are 4 and nearly 2 in this photo taken last fall so I have a bit of time before I have to learn to be intimidating. ;)
 
Neo, they are adorable! Beautiful shots! I would learn quickly, btw. Those kindergarten boys...

No worries on that count, brother. We are enrolling the Ainsley in an online virtual school for Kindergarden. If it is half as good it looks like it might be, she will likely do grades 1 through 12 with them too.

Man, my daughter did 1 virtual class in her sophomore year. She took it so she could squeeze in another class, and even as a very focused kid, she constantly fell behind because of work for other classes.

I'm sure if it's all virtual, it should be much more controlled, but what about all the extra curricular activities they'll miss out on over the years ?
 
Lots of ways to do that, Miles. There is a home school network locally that has everything from a band program to a football team. There is a girls soccer club just up the street and she has been in swimming lessons locally with a place that feeds right into a swim team if she is interested. My wife and I both have a ton of theater contacts if she wanted to do that. All her closest friends go to the same church.

It was an initial concern of mine as well but any objections I had have been over come by the school program they have in place. She will get a better education this way then the local elementary school could give her and I will have a lot more control/input into the curriculum. I really believe this is the direction education will take in the future.

This is democracy and capitalism at work.

Sounds outstanding ! Many of the points you brought up are what I feel kept my daughter on the right track. Church, sports, band, and Odyssey of The Mind. Her team made the world finals for the third time in 4 years.

Oh, your daughters are just little darlings....

I have a friend who is a mother of 6...the oldest is 9. :laugh: Anyway, she is homeschooling. I asked her about the social aspect and she mentioned the same activities for her kids that you mentioned.

I like the sound of the program you described and I also like my friend homeschooling her children.
 
The family about 4 years ago at my stepsons graduation from police academy.

Pete, post 41 in this thread is good pic of my son from his graduation last year. Being a former wrestler doesn't cost a lot to feed him. Does have expensive transporation habits. If you will school him and keep up with his transportation wants...he's yours! :)

I can't keep up with my own transportation needs, so unless he wants the 91 Previa with no AC, I guess the deal is off.
 
Me and the misses on my birthday. She took me to see my first live performance by Cirque de Soleil.

We are all excited to experience the announcement of draft selections IN REAL TIME TOGETHER. If you feel the need to be the first to 'blurt out' the team's picks you are better off staying out of chat and sticking to Twitter. Please refrain from announcing/discussing our picks until the official announcement has been made at the podium. Thanks!
