Shakey Face

happy 4th of july! astoria is hoppin tonight! there are block parties and fireworks! it is loud and if you had no idea what 4th of july was, you might be terrified that the world was ending.  it is seriously nutso here! 

i went to cleveland for the weekend and flew home today.  the plane landed 20 minutes early, but we were stuck on the tarmac for one hour and thirty minutes because they had no gate to pull into.  that was terrible.... hard to be so close to home and not able to get off the plane.

the weekend was awesome though. two friends got married, congrats laura and joey! so happy for you both.  there was ice cream. there were salads.  there was reading alone time.  and catching up time.  i spent quality time with my mother and father in law, or as i call them m2d2.  it is cool, like r2d2... you know.  yea, you know it. 

there is a game that is really fun if you are a little bored.  shakey face.  you relax all the muscles in your face and shake your head back and forth.  then you let the camera do the work.  here are some righteous examples!

here, mauricio is doing the opposite of shakey face, it is called "really tight face"

  2. Ridiculous. Definitely fun especially if you stiffen your face before shaking it. Annika really enjoys that one.

  3. We had a variation on this in college theater that was called "Richard Nixon / Jimmy Carter"
