We are the dancing queens...

Yesterday I expressed my fear that Henry and Ezra may drift into the hideous world of amateur theatre, primarily because they both are supremely talented singers, dancers and - most of all - drama queens. Now, I am hoping that their lust for the STAGE is just a STAGE, and that they'll settle down to non-theatrically based activities in the near future.

Until then, we are left with scenes like this...

I couldnt stop laughing while watching the video. It is hillarious and CUTE!!!!! Whose idea was this anyway? or was it an impromptu gig.

Henry sure is showing more than just passing inclination towards theatrics. Couldnt help noticing his little touches here and there while dancing, specially that "back-touch."

Ez is giving him good company there with the claps.

Henry didnt look too happy when the music was stopped. Did the audience ask for an encore? I want one....

I think they are ready for a...Greek dance (zeimbekiko). One is in the middle dancing and the other on the side clapping-like zeimbekiko lol

So cute!
Have a great day!

When you said Henry liked the moon I didn't realise you may have meant that he liked TO moon!!!
And all the wargaming the boys have been doing may have been because they are in the "Seven Nation Army"???
I'm gonna fight 'em all...
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back..
They're gonna rip it off...
Taking their time right behind my back.

They are a great team!
This carefree stage of life is great. If only it would last past 5 years old.

Happy birthday sweet Ezra!

Yamini, they're both keen dancers. Pure naturals.

Marianna, well, Henry LOVES saganaki and I could eat octopus all day, so maybe we have some Greek in us somewhere.

I know I have Sicilian, so maybe it is Greek/Sicilian!

KL, he's too little for Kindergarten. Those moves are one's I've taught him.

Lost inside an adorable illusion and I cannot hide, I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside, we could've made it cruising, yeah.

Yes it is Theme Thusday again, and today we are talking GLASS . I've three possible hooks to hang my [glass] hat on with this theme. First, the photo! Yes, it is the river again from an odd angle in an interesting light. You can just make out the bottom, which should tell you that I'm right on the shore. In some ways, the distortion of the stones below the surface reminds me of ye olde glass windows, what they call "cylinder blown sheet glass". You can still find some of this around Hobart these days. Thw second link comes from a trip I took to Venice a few years back. You're probably aware that Venice was (is?) a glass-making centre of excellence. If you have ever been there and taken the tour of the glass factories, you might be familiar with the sheer amount of coloured glass that sits at the bottom of the water there. These fragments of glass have been worn down and had their edges dulled by their time in the water, which makes them ample keepsakes for the ...

Hold me now, oh hold me now, until this hour has gone around. And I'm gone on the rising tide, to face Van Dieman's Land

Theme Thursday again, and this one is rather easy. I am Tasmanian, you see, and aside from being all around general geniuses - as I have amply described previously - we are also very familiar with the concept of WATER. Tasmania is the ONLY island state of an ISLAND continent. That means, we're surrounded by WATER. That should help explain why I take so many photographs of water . Tasmania was for a long time the place where the British (an island race terrified of water) sent their poor people most vile and horrid criminals. The sort of folk who would face the stark choice of a death sentence , or transportation to the other end of the world. Their catalogue of crimes is horrifying : stealing bread assault stealing gentlemen's handkerchiefs drunken assault being poor affray ladies being overly friendly with gentlemen for money hitting people having a drink and a laugh public drunkenness being Irish Fenian terrorist activities being Catholic religious subversion. ...

Happy anniversary baby, got you on my mind

No it is not a webcam, but this photograph was taken a mere forty-five ago on my way in to work. Here you can see a good old fashioned Hobart autumn morning, with the rain pelting down and me getting drenched. This one was taken on the corner of Macquarie and Elizabeth, while I was waiting for the lights to change. Come on Ampelmännchen ! Today is my wedding anniversary, an apparently I need to be showering Jen with leather -related goodies. Va-va-vaVOOM! To you Jennifer, here is a poem I wrote this very morning. Anniversary I love you i love you iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou I LOVE you I love YOU iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou I LOVE YOU iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou Happy anniversary
