happy birthday hobie & katie!!

i must first wish my cats a
happy, happy birthday!!!!



so, the scripps spelling bee....WOW!
i thought that all they did was
memorize words..turns out these kids
memorize roots and definition!
CRAZY how these students can pull
something out of thin air just by
knowing a word's root origin!
and then, not only that, but they actually
congratulating their opponents authentically
after they lose. i'm amazed! wow!
most of these kids are "home schooled"
and i think that if they had been
allowed to remain in "mainstream"
schools that they would have been
massively attacked personally and/or
crucified by your everyday student.
it's sad to say that students today
just simply are afraid of and are
threatened by those who have i.q.'s
greater than the average student.
the nerds of today are the billionaires
of tomorrow!

last night we bounced back and forth
from "so you think you can dance" to
"so you think you can spell"! big night
at the austin house!!

today...2 cancer families check
into the airport hilton in bloomington.
(don't forget about hobie & katie's
11th birthday today!!)

i aligned myself with a new organization
yesterday... it's the CFPA!
"children & family photographers of
america"...pretty cool group!
i'm excited to be apart of this great
team and share my knowledge!
check them out!
here are a few of the images that i
submitted to them...







i'll be adding their logo, the miracles of mitch
logo and the NILMDTS logo to my home page soon.
perhaps the starkey hearing foundation one as well.
all with hyper~links.
