…since there’s been a post here. And way too long since there’s been a shot of my kids here…
This was Nancy’s Xmas card this year. A shot I took of the kids on a trip to “The Tree” at Rockefellar Plaza.
Happy Holidays!!
This is our Xmas card this year, but we’re so far behind I thought I’d put it up here. You will get the photo eventually, so don’t bother trying to print this one.
Hope everyone had a great holiday, and if you’re not back to work yet, hope it stays great.
I-Xmas!!
I-Xmas comes to The Legends of the Falls!!
Beginning Christmas Eve, after the kids go to bed (maybe late) link from the image below to spend some time with your NJ I-kin. Who knows, you might see Santa Claus!
Cartooning
While watching an old Christmas movie with Charlotte this weekend (an animated film, done in Claymation style, but with puppets) I started describing to her how animation is done. I explained the idea of lots of slightly different pictures using puppets, or clay, or hand-drawn, or computer-drawn. She totally understood, so i took it a step further and showed her how she could make her own on the computer. So she did a test (and I emphasize a test cuz she did, she wanted to test the idea, but not put a lot of effort into the drawings as it was getting to be bedtime).
Here’s her cartoon (click to link).
And Lex did one too:
More Thanksgiving
Not much more, really. Basically just some photos. Not enough time to compose an eloquent essay of our trip. We had a really great time. The kids did too. They seem to appreciate seeing family. (Maybe Shannon or Marilyn will tell about Lex’s spontaneous hug of Shannon.)
And we loved checking out Shan’s piece of America. Nice choice, Shan.
BTW, Sorry for the long loadtime on this post. The blog isn’t working correctly (making corrupt resized images) and I had to tweak the html manually to get these posted. If I have time I’ll fix it.
There’s a Turkey in the Attic!!
Yoda and a Witch
Night shots just didn’t turn out so well, so this is from their school parade.
Marilyn & Steve / BBQ & Bocce
Had a nice visit and small BBQ party with Marilyn and Steve yesterday. A few friends, a couple kids, lots to drink and more Pulled Pork.
Bocce and croquet, too.
Tennessee Vacation
More photos (not a lot) can be seen here.
Lex’s 1st Two-Wheeler
Man, he’s thrilled!! Just needs a little work on starting and stopping. He’s been working hard, too. Went riding 5 times this weekend.
