No… it’s not that. (A month later, we STILL don’t know what part of Chicago we’re going to. But, for now, let’s get off that nasty subject.)
It’s a HAPPY DAY because my mom found my missing camera!! No - it wasn’t my kick ass Nikon DSL that I lost, thank God, but it was my [...]

I Will Survive

Staying true to his Gloria Gaynor ringtone, my dad (and mom) survived the visit with us.
I talked to my mom from the airport in Austin a little while ago and I told her I thought the weekend went really fast. “Well, I’m glad you thought so,” was her reply. Hmmmm. Does that [...]

God’s Freebies
April 17th, 2008 · 5 Comments · Adventures, Family, Parenting, Picture Taking
I decided, when Jack was about a year-and-a-half old, that God must give new moms a “freebie.”
I don’t remember every detail, but I do know that my God-given freebie involved me in another room changing a newborn Maria’s diaper while Jack stayed in the kitchen with a pot of Spaghetti-O’s on the stove. I [...]

Introducing “The H Team”
March 13th, 2008 · 3 Comments · Parenting, Picture Taking
Yesterday after picking up Jack, we all headed to the drugstore where kids’ sunglasses are on sale.
Usually the kids turn away from the camera, but I guess hiding their eyes gave them a new confidence. Or something.
To see more in the series (’cause you know there’s always a series) plus some pics from Luke’s [...]

M-I-L photos

My mother-in-law loves me. Really. I know she does. (You do, don’t you, Pat?)
However, how can anyone who really loves me request that I do a photo session of my children? Why not ask me to shove splinters under my fingernails instead?
I guess I should have downed a glass or two [...]

Do you think he’ll be this excited when it’s his own homework in a few years?

Park Day

We visited a different park today. We drove down to Nashville, played at Centennial Park and then had lunch at the San Antonio Taco Company in the West End. Yum! Reminiscent of Taco Cabana back in Texas.
Here are a few pics from the day. There’s a huge, authentic locomotive at the [...]

Santa
December 11th, 2007 · 6 Comments · Family, Parenting, Picture Taking
Oh, the dreaded Santa pictures. (Of course, even sans Santa, you know pictures are dreaded around here.)
What do you think the ratio is of good to bad Santa pics out there? Are there ever really any good ones? And by good, I’m not talking about the quality of the photo. [...]
Twenty-Five
December 2nd, 2007 · 8 Comments · Family, Parenting, Picture Taking
When most people see or hear the number “twenty-five” just before or during the month of December, they think, “days until Christmas,” or “Christmas Day.”
Erase that thought.
Instead, think “twenty-five photos to choose from. And they’re of THE FOUR.”
Yes, Ladies and Gentlemen, the time has come again to design Christmas cards. My absolute favorite [...]

Pajama Party
November 15th, 2007 · 5 Comments · Dads, Parenting, Picture Taking, School
It’s always some kind of party when we get a box from Maddog and Gran. Today it was a jammie party, as we received a boxful of new jammies for everyone.
As you can see from the photos, my new camera isn’t quite the miracle I was hoping for. Don’t get me wrong — it’s [...]
