WOW that looked like FUN

Hard to enjoy anything with tubes shoved down your nose...but yeah, he was pretty laid back.

I hear you - what I meant to say was that despite the circumstances, he looked relaxed in the position he was laying in. He looks like such a happy kid at 14 months - is that how old he is now? And how old is Quinn?

Reece turned 3 in July.

Quinn was born 8/21/06.

In Mid-June after school was out, my wife, 11 year old daughter and I went to Mammoth and Tahoe. These 1st shots are from Mammoth.

This was the middle of June!!! Preparing to hit the photographer (me) with a snowball:

In town, the weather was nice enough to go comfy in a windbreaker...just 4 miles from the snowfield.

She just turned 11 months, and had been walking for around two weeks now - she just zooms all over the place fearlessly - which is a good thing, but more work for us!!

She is beautiful Luwin. You are a lucky guy.

This is my first time posting pics using photobucket I hope they come out.

This is a picture I took of Kristine Lilly, captain of the USA Women's soccer team, right after defeating the Canadian team at the Home Depot Sports Center last Sunday night. She was signing autographs for quite a while and then came down right in front of us and took off her shoe, sighned one and gave it to her "bodyguard" for a lack of a better term. Then she took off her other, signed it and looked around at all the screaming girls, walked over to my daughter, Sarah and handed it to her.

This one is my daughter in shock.

I love this thread. :o Of course, I'm a picture freak. Nesdog, Luwin - what beatiful children you have. 1955 - thanks for the pics and story behind them. The smile on Sarah's face is priceless! Now that's a picture worth a thousand words! :)

she is beautiful Luwin! :D

How Cool is that! WOW! :D

Yeah, it was an incredible day that I'll never forget. It just happened to be my b-day and was the best one of my entire life (51 of them). About twenty minutes after I took these pictures, while driving home, she started to cry uncontrollably for 15 straight minutes. She just couldn't keep all the excitement insider of herself any more. I've seen her excited before, but this was off of the charts.

This is a nice place to share them, thanks for looking.

Well, well...you have a future superstar athlete on your hands if she was that excited. That makes the story all the better. It means she truly deserved that shoe and the whole experience does sound like a wonderful birthday! :)

I figured these might be appropriate to post today as it marks the 65th anniversary of the attacks on Pearl Harbor -

Funnel Cake...

How's that for random? :p

Looks like Oliver Twist or some poor orphan finding a stray funnel cake and devouring it!! Do you feed the poor child at home???!!

Just kidding, of course - great pics, looks like it was lots of fun!! ;)

I only feed my kids every fourth Thursday. They lucked out yesterday. ;) Marcellus is a SUGAR FIEND! It's nuts, if I allowed it, he would eat nothing but donuts, candy and ice cream. I'm careful about what we bring into the house, so when you present the kid a plate full of fried goodness topped with powdered sugar and tell him to have at it, he's all over it. :D :p

Edited to add...it's weird...when those things aren't around, he has a great diet. In fact, he has excellent taste and often still my sashimi...little brat! ;)

Ok...Fixer...I said I would do one also....
so here is my messy garage picture

http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...z/HPIM0531.jpg

I should really frighten all of you and post a picture of my messy closet. It, and the condition it is in, makes your garages look like Martha Stewart's kitchen. I've joked with my family that if I ever go missing that they should ask the police to searh my closet first. :o
