2156

Our series continued with much excitement - you can see the costumes above, but you'll have to look elsewhere to see the videos. We dubbed a bunch of old kung fu movies with our own voices - with hilarious results. On top of this, we made a "Dan Kwon Do" video, which parodies our friend Rex Kwon Dow - and along with that we've got some other great videos including ninja races. It's been a great time at church!

Madison has enjoyed it too. In fact, today she was rather upset to leave her classroom! Still, she got to go home with Mommy and Daddy and relax the rest of the day. We didn't accomplish much, but this was mostly because we were pretty zapped again from the preparations for the service. Again, it went well!

It has been pretty hot outside, but inside it has been comfortable. We spent the afternoon on the couch watching television and playing video games. Occasionally, we did a few things here and there to pick up the house. But not that much. It was a day of rest.

News of the weekend! A British scientist has recently gone out on a limb: there's a person alive today that will see his or her 150th birthday. Of course, there's no real risk in making such a bold prediction - that scientist probably won't be around to see it! But, it is an interesting thing to think about, so let's zoom ahead to Madison's 150th birthday party. That would be in the year 2156. Based on Hollywood's current estimation, that's two years after all those problems on the moon of Pandora: the movie "Avatar" takes place in 2154.

Which of course leads to this: Madison as a character in "Avatar."

Daddy used an online program for this one - you can sort of see Madison in there a bit. Daddy's not a huge fan of the picture, but then again not a huge fan of the movie either! Still, that's what we'll be seeing a lot of in the year 2156, so we'd better get used to it, right?

At least the future is a whole lot brighter than it is in the year 2022! Now there's a pretty bleak outlook! *
