Here’s what the kid’s and I did yesterday:

And here’s what we did today:

More on Sean

Sean wasn’t too intimidated at the hospital:

Here’s a picture of Sean’s stitches. Each one of those knots cost us $50.

I added some more pictures of Zelda, if you want to check that out:

Proof Scan

Barry — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 02:39:08 +0000

I was going to write about what a nice day it was today, and how much fun we had, but I decided a picture would be better. I finally got around to scanning the proofs from the picture session we had in February.

Picture of the Week

Barry — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 03:08:13 +0000

I haven’t done a picture of the week for a while, so here is a good one Cortney took with Sean and Princess:

In other news, Sean and I raked the front yard this morning. The big mesquite tree has dropped quite a few leaves, although you wouldn’t know it from the amount of leaves still on the tree.

I also checked out the sprinkler system, which is finally working after the valve fiasco we had last weekend.

More Lego Star Wars

Barry — Mon, 18 Dec 2006 05:03:52 +0000

Sean, Ethan, and I played more Lego Star Wars today. Actually, we played until I insisted we stop, as my thumbs and wrists work getting sore. Some of the levels require non-stop action on the game controllers, which was too much for me.

In other news, Sean and Ethan saw Santa Claus today. Here’s the picture:

Actually, this Santa just came back from the hospital. Apparently, a large, unsupervised child ran in and jumped on Santa’s knee, injuring him enough to spend the night at the hospital.

Here is a picture from today’s hiking trip:

This picture was taken a while ago, and I just got around to downloading it from my cell phone. Sean loses his first baby teeth:

A Hike

Barry — Sun, 19 Nov 2006 01:45:58 +0000

I was feeling a bit better today, so I took Sean and Princess with me on a hike. The trail was crowded, and Princess did really well with the other dogs on the trail (and people too). Lots of people commented on what a good-looking dog Princess was.

We all had fun on the trail. The only thing keeping us from doing this more often is that Princess collected an amazing amount of dirt and dust on the trail. Sean and I gave her a bath, and the water was brown from all of the dirt.

Here is a picture from today’s hike:

Zoo Day

Barry — Mon, 13 Nov 2006 03:49:04 +0000

We all went to the zoo this afternoon. Today was the grand opening of Stingray Bay. The new attraction was crowded when we first arrived, but it wasn’t too bad later in the afternoon.

We asked the kids what they enjoyed the most about the zoo. Ethan enjoyed the popcorn. Cortney bought some kettle corn right after we walked into the zoo. Sean and Ethan munched on the popcorn while we walked around and saw the animals. Sean enjoyed the stingrays the most.

The stingray exhibit allows you to put your hands in the water and touch the stingrays. The stingrays have had their barbs removed, so they aren’t dangerous. And while we were in the exhibit, they passed out food to feed the stingrays. Sean and Ethan both dropped the food (fish parts and shrimp) into the water, but I was able to actually feed one of the stingrays. I have to say they are really slimy. Sean was at least able to touch the stingrays, but he did not mind the slime.

Here are some pictures of the stingrays. The first picture has my hand in the lower right corner getting ready to feed one of the stingrays. The second is Sean attempting to touch one of the stingrays.

Playing With the New Cellphone

Barry — Mon, 06 Nov 2006 01:46:46 +0000

I finally got a card reader for the memory card in my phone, so I was able to pull the pictures off the phone. Most of the pictures did not come out well. Unless the light is good and the phone (and subjects) are steady, the phone does take good pictures. Here’s my best effort so far.
