Christmas South, Part VI, Geocaching

Just what is geocaching, anyway? Well, imagine somebody hid cool clues all over your neighborhood and you had a magical way to find them. What you’re picturing is geocaching. Only take the “magical” part out and replace it with a GPS and a set of online instructions. It was the 27th of December, and Melissa […]

Christmas South, Part V: The Saga Continues…

So that wrapped up Christmas as the calendar knows it… we celebrate Christmas across many days, however! Santa is pretty amazing. I want to thank Santa and the the Johnsons and Kunzes for their generosity regarding both Christmas and Nina’s birthday. Thanks! On the 26th we spent some time with Grandma Sue, and special guests […]

Happy First Birthday, Little Girl!

Christmas dinner was the one last event before Christmas celebration turned into Nina’s Birthday party! See this image larger. Grampa Ray holds Nina while we try on the appropriate hat! See this image larger. Ok, little one, this is just like what happened this morning, except that it’s all about you instead of all the […]

Christmas South, Part IV

Nina and Daddy wave at the camera! Hi everybody! See this image larger. *I love my Daddy!* (At least that’s part of what I remember feeling during this picture… I also remember her filling her diaper. Oh well, either way I’m there to support her, right?) See this image larger. Grandma Sue arrived to share […]

Christmas South, Part III

I’m guessing it isn’t too hard to imagine that Christmas for four kids is a little complicated. And just look at the pile this year! See this image larger. Big enough it didn’t fit in one pic! See this image larger. Don’t ever ask a girl born on Christmas to show you a little Christmas […]

Christmas South, Part II

Long entry this time, folks, I gotta catch us up to present in a hurry! (My computer is “fixed,” but that doesn’t mean what it should mean, sadly… new mother-board, new video card and a slew of new problems all for free! Special thanks to my recent back-up for saving my buns.) It was the […]

Bad News

Bad news, everybody, my computer is not working, and won’t be for about a week. The video card and mother board died and that means i’ll be unlikely to be able to update the blog, or do any work. The good news is that I signed up for AppleCare back in March of 2008… Which […]

Christmas South, Part I

And so we begin our journey south. Airline tickets were a joke this year, and frankly we just wanted to try driving to see how it would be. It turned out not to be too bad at all. The first thing we did was drive over to Grampa Dave and Grandma Marcia’s. They let us […]

Happy Birthday, Little Man!

Four years old? Seriously? Kiddo, you are so awesome. I’m looking forward to watching you grow and change s’more. I’ve had so much fun so far, and we’ve learned a lot together. Thanks for choosing me. 😉 Love, Daddy. Everybody else, after we get through Christmas South (still compiling) I’ll share some pics of Ian’s […]

Christmas North, Finale

The movie “Cars” has a sort of sequel that came out on DVD only… this is a set that lets you launch a car through a loop and off a ramp… He couldn’t see what it was at first… See this image larger. Now he gets it. It was around here that he said something […]
