The Search Is Over!!

Rob sent me this video, and thanks to him, James' search for a Halloween costume is officially over. He's going as this guy. Enjoy...



Just another day with additional flourishes Being Billingsley...

Happy Father's Day

Thanks to all of you out there who are great fathers to your kiddos. Especially those of you who have sons... my girls will be looking for good husbands one day.

These two think they have the World's Greatest Dad...


I think they're right.

Just another day thanking our Heavenly Father for this wonderful life of Being Billingsley...

The World's Funniest Dad

Just another hilarious day Being Billingsley...

Another of Abbie's Tremendous Talents...

Abbie does hair! She actually specializes in coiffures for male figure skaters.

After all the hard work Abbie put into getting James' hair all fixed this morning, James said he's pretty sure he's getting the gold.

If you watched much male figure skating this year, you know that between his hair and the amount of sparkly spandex in his wardrobe, James CAN'T lose.

Just another day using Olympic amounts of hair gel and Being Billingsley...

Happy Thanksgiving From The Billingsleys!

Hope your day is a special... complete with at least one solid nap and three trips to the dessert table!

Just another incredibly blessed day Being Billingsley...

Warning: Adorable Baby Laughing

Apparently James has the funniest fake laugh ever...

Just another hilarious day Being Billingsley...

Bye Bye October...

I have started the sad, sad task of putting away the October decor.

In addition to Halloween, October is the month we celebrate the old man's (James') birthday. My favorite of all the decorations I put out this time of year is a picture his youngest cousin drew for him many years ago. She was 7-years-old at the time. She is now a very impressive, completely gorgeous, and hilarious 19-year-old college student. My how time has flown by!!

It is hard to see because of my wretched photography skills and the glass on the frame, but notice she had every member of our family at the time depicted and labeled...even our canine daughters. She was a very thoughtful artist.

Bet you can't figure out which one is me.

Just another day, looking like a clown and Being Billingsley...

Dancin' Fools

Anyone who knows James well knows he loves to dance!

It doesn't matter where we are or what is going on, if he hears a funky beat...he's ready to get his dance on. A DJ at a wedding recently asked if he could hire James to go to his gigs and "get the party started" by being the first to take the dance floor.

Because I do not participate in dance moves of any variety at any time, James is thrilled that Abbie has always shared his love of dance. He has been teaching her moves for years, and she has always loved the tutorial.

And now, he has another daughter he's trying to teach his moves to. Apparently, you can't start too young. However, she seems to feel the same way about dance as her mother. Check out that face. Maybe it's just Akon she doesn't care for...who knows.

Just another ridiculous day Being Billingsley...
