Fred Astaire
So my sweet, innocent Dallin had his first kiss the other day. It had been a day unlike any other, with the warm St. George evening coming to a close. Dallin had been playing with his cute friend off and on all day, and I hadn't given their time together a second thought. Then they came into the house to see what was for dinner, and when it wasn't done yet, they said they were going to go outside to dance, and that I shouldn't watch. So, I did what every other nosy mother would have done.....I peeked out the window. They were on the side of my house behind a tree so that passers-by wouldn't see them, but I had a pretty good view from my window. They were, Fred and Ginger, slow dancing!! He had his arms wrapped around her and she had her head on his shoulder!!!! Just when I thought this was too much, they looked at each other and then they kissed!!!!! I went out there to break up the love fest, and asked them what they had been doing. They came up with the usual brilliant explanation of "nothing." Fortunately Dallin still thinks that we can tell if he is lying by the color of his tongue (Thanks Ben and Rachel!) so I did the "tongue test" and verified that they had in fact kissed! I didn't even know what to say.....I just sent Ginger Rogers home and told him that the only girl he should be kissing is his mommy!

How cute is that!!! I couldn't help but smile during that whole story!! How cute! What is the girls real name?
Amanda - I give you permission to use Ginger's real name. I am SO sorry that my girl is a romance queen. Boy will my hands be full with her. I like your tongue idea - I have always used that I have a camera that records everything she does, so when I know she is lying I tell her that I am going to check my "mommy camera" and the truth always comes out. Again, I'm so sorry - hopefully it won't happen again. And sorry for today, with our kids 'getting lost' together and all. What on earth are we going to do with these two??????? Or maybe what on earth am I going to do with mine???? Maybe she's a bad influence on Dallin.
How funny! I love the tongue idea I will have to try that.
Come on, you do have to admit that's pretty darn funny... And very good idea about the tongue!
Oh My goodness! That is so cute! I agree with Angie...i couldn't stop smiling while reading that!
I am sorry but I can't help but laugh! He is quite the charmer. Good luck living life in the motherhood! It's an adventure for us all!
Oh boy, life is just starting for you now that Dallin has reached 16 or is that 6 years old. How fun for him (and you). He will definately have to be chaperoned from now on. No kissing around the side of the house. Cute, Cute, Cute.
How funny!! Dallin the charmer...too bad you didn't have a video camera on hand :)
The tongue idea actually came from Ben's family. It works every time for our kids, although I wonder how much longer with Katelyn.
Miss you guys!! Have a great time next week.
I think I have witnessed a kiss also... where did they learn this??? They are too funny!
