The Inauguration in Legos

I don't want to name names, but someone in our house is totally into Legos. The only hint I'll give is that his name ends in "N."

Barack Obama's inauguration in Legoland, California

I saw this headline in my Google Reader and thought, I can't wait to see this.

In this picture, look at the background and the people standing up. It gives you a great perspective on the Lego buildings and people. There are twelve images in the story I saw. You can see them here.

The Lego Land website has a section called What's New. If you scroll down a bit, it has more info on the pictures.

I'm being observed tomorrow for TAP. I think one of these images might be a good VTS lesson and earn me good points on my "questioning" score.

FYI: Lakeshore Learning has their own version of Legos that work with real Legos. They even have a set of Lego people. To Adams and Oldenburg, keep this in mind when your little ones are older.

Ella's Baptism

Today was a great day in the Knaus Family.  Our littlest one, Ella Rebecca, was baptized into the Lord's Family.  She was a perfect Angel with Pastor Jeff and throughout the entire service. Except for the time she spit up on my sleeve.  Ian struggled with not getting all the attention but was fine once we started opening presents and eating cake!

Here are a few pictures from this morning.  Thanks to Uncle Jake for grabbing our camera.

Thank you to all the Aunts and Uncle, Grandmas and Grandpas, and especially Ella's Godparents, Uncle Jake, Aunt Heidi, and Aunt Rebecca (or Becky, as we like to call her.)  And lastly, to Cousin Eli who lit Ella's Baptism Candle for her.  We appreciate all of you!

Maybe I've Got It All Wrong

The secret to long live? Me, a vegetarian? It might be time to revisit my entire belief system. Unless Fake Bacon counts....



I still don't think I'll join Bacon of the Month like Adams.
