Welcome to Abu Halen.

If you listen real heard, you can actually hear the good times roll. Or at least limp. Maybe crawl.

Risk!

Here Grace laughs in the face of risk.
By Shannon:

Our family game of Risk last Sunday afternoon surpassed everyone’s attention span but Joey’s (because he was winning). Grace and Halen faltered most, but Savannah kept at the game for quite some time. After one particularly risky move, Savannah reasoned that Grace wouldn’t be smart enough to attack her . . . which was not actually a smart thing to say aloud. Joey and I glanced furtively at Grace, preparing to initiate emotional damage control. Startled by our attention, Grace straightened in her seat, pulled her foot from her mouth, and spit out a toenail.

No harm, no foul!
