"This is It" and that was that! Good Times!


These darling children and their Mommy brought by this poster for Sister Shattuck in England and invited me to the Michael Jackson Movie "This Is It". These darling children knew most of the words to these songs and we had a blast clapping and singing. I was "Thriller-ed" that someone else was such a big fan of his music also! These kids are a crack up singing beat it! Thanks for the invite, it was a blast and the company is so dang cute!!! I just wanted to squeeze them!
