The Menace

Here you see the most recent photo of Dennis (the cat I married into). After some recent high intensity workouts, Dennis has dropped his overall weight from 19 to 18 pounds. I think his most recent catch, a field mouse, which occurred when Grandma Erath was here may have cost him a half of pound.

The first child

Although Copper looks a little angry, the photographer was not intimidated. Notice the nice trim around the ears. The close trim on the chest brings out the bright white spots on his face.

Ready for the ball


Here are the kids in a private photo session not sponsored by the wedding coordinator.

Cinderella?


This picture is from Auntie Lynn's wedding where Aubrey and Bryce were the flower girl and ring bearer. It was a great day. Princess Aubrey had some problems staying clean from the time pictures started to the time the wedding march began. She ended up with black grease stains all over her legs and dress from climbing on empty chair holders. Classic Aubrey.

Bryce's Blast

Bryce just completed his 2nd season with the J-birds tee ball team. He hits a little like Trammell, closed front foot, good hip rotation. Na would be proud.

Welcome to our first Blog

Besides taking a week long class about how to incorporate syntax, tone, and infinitive phrases into my teaching, my wife asked me to complete another project; creating a blog. I was a little concerned when I started this venture because Elliott wasn't here, but I think I figured it out. The basic premise of this well-constructed blog is for family and friends to view recent pictures of our children. I will try to keep the pictures of myself to a minimum, unless of course I am coincedentally in the shot somewhere. You will however see a recent picture of Copper, who just received the 3rd haircut of his 8 year life. The haircut was free (daddy did it), and it was mostly done in the dark, so you can only imagine. Enjoy...
