Family Talents

At the Campbell Family Reunion a couple of weeks ago, we had a family talent show. Jake sang a song, J.D. told a couple of jokes, and we did a family skit (song). Here are videos of the boys' talents so the rest of you can see how talented they are. (We didn't practice our skit/song beforehand so it was a little choppy and J.D. hit his mouth on the microphone halfway through and started to cry, so that also made it not very smooth, plus it was long--so I didn't post it.)

Jake sang "Stinkle, Stinkle Little Skunky," which he learned in music class (Thanks, Logan!). Here are the words if you can't hear them very well:

Stinkle, stinkle little skunky

Tell me why you smell so funky

With your tail up to the sky

You smell so bad I want to cry

Stinkle, stinkle little skunky

Tell me why you smell so funky

J.D. told some jokes he learned on a Wiggles DVD. Here is a transcript in case you missed them (like my niece, Maxine, who says, "They have a what?" at the end of the clip):

Joke 1:

How do sheep get themselves clean?

They have a baaaath.

Joke 2:

How do monkeys swing across the telephone wires?

They have a ooh-ooh aah-aah. (It is supposed to be, "they go ooh-ooh aah-aah.")

(Incidentally, Jake wanted to tell a joke too, so I had to send him back to Daddy in the middle.)

What talented boys!! :) Logan will be glad that Jake likes his favorite song! FYI We got that song from a performer at the RR Library, Lucas Miller. His other songs are all about science (more in depth than the skunky song) and are a lot of fun!
