Our Little Guitar Hero

My parents have guitar hero and I think we played all day on Christmas. Rachel and I got really good at AFI's "Miss Murder" and of course Megan beats everyone at every song. My famous cousin Jack came over one day and played by himself from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm. One day he asked my Mom for help in beating a song and when she messed up and didn't beat it he yelled "I'm screwed!" He is seven!!!!! Our Jack loved guitar hero, too. Well, he loved eating guitar hero!

The Waldron Family said...: He looks like a natural with the guitar. I cannot believe our little boys are 1 already. Time flies. Jack looks like such a little boy and not so much a baby. I hope you are all well.; March 11, 2008 at 10:34 AM
The Lilly's said...: Hi Sarah! Laura Gleed gave me her blog address, who had a link to Kristine, then I realized she had a link to you, I was so excited! Jack is too cute, sounds like you're lovin' the mommy life. I caught the blog fever and decided to start one, it's sillylillys.blogspot.com. It's still under construction but there's a few cute pics of Alex. Take care, Lana; March 15, 2008 at 12:38 PM
