Finally, More Pictures Posted

Posted on by

It seems like it has been ages since I’ve added more pictures to the website and some of you have let me know it too. These have been in work for some time but I’m finally just getting around to finishing them off.

First, there are some pictures of the kids playing outside from last month. These are focused on Caroline since the boys were biking up and down the street and it was hard to get any good pictures of them.

Next, there is a set of Andrew learning how to ride a two wheeler. These pictures happened not too long after I had my appendix out so I wasn’t much use trying to help him so Jen ran along with him. I have to say I was pretty impressed with how quickly he’s managed to pick up riding. These pictures were from the 2nd time he had ever been out with a two wheeler. I even managed to post some video with these.

Lastly, there is another set of Andrew but this time playing soccer. He’s on the same team as he was in the spring but with a new jersey colour. On the day I took the camera he got to play goalie which he was really excited about and had been talking about all week leading up to the game. While he was in net the team did a really good job keeping the ball at the other end of the field so he wasn’t called on to make any heroic saves. None the less he still had lots of fun.

Florida Vacation Pictures

Posted on by

At the beginning on June we took a family vacation to Watercolor Florida which is located in the pan handle kind of mid way between Destin and Panama City. Kelly was the vacation planner and booked a house that the whole family stayed in. It was a really relaxing vacation with swimming in the gulf, hanging out around the pool, afternoon naps, and other really strenuous vacation activities.

We took a bunch of pictures which you can see here.

And before anyone asks, we managed to make it there just ahead of BP oil spill tar balls washing up on the beach. While we where there they started showing up in Pensacola and by the looks of the Google Map of the oil spill it won’t be long before they start showing up there as well.

Yearly Pictures – Finally Done!

Posted on by

I know it’s just about the end of June now and I’ve finally got around to getting the yearly pictures posted. I got Caroline’s done back in February but just didn’t get around to getting the boys pictures finished even through we took them relatively close to their birthdays.

Here’s Andrew’s Pictures and Alex’s Pictures. And, in case you missed it, here’s Caroline’s Pictures.

New Collage for Home Page

Posted on by

I always promise that I’m going to keep the picture collage on the front page up to date but it’s been about a year since I last updated it and it was really out of date. Since everyone went to bed early tonight I had some free time to myself and I put a new one together.

Andrew’s Birthday

Posted on by

We finally had Andrew’s birthday party the other weekend after having to delay it a couple of weeks due to me being out of town for his actual birthday and then conflicts because of sporting events. This year he wanted to have his party at McDonald’s and after Jen took him to see “How to Train Your Dragon” that’s what he wanted for his party theme.

Like usual Jen worked her magic with the cake and did a Viking village complete with two Viking cottages on the hill overlooking the sea with a Viking longboat and we printed out some characters from the movie to place around the village. Instead of handing out party bags we made Viking hats, swords, and shields to give out all the guests.

There are two pages of pictures. The first one is just Andrew opening his family gifts at the house and the second page is from the McDonald’s party. You can find the pictures here.
