Hi All,

It has been a while since I last posted. I have been busy, but decided while the kids are in bed I would throw up a quick post and a few photos from my recent business trip to San Francisco. I had a great time and the city offers plenty to see. With that said, here are a few quick photos that I will follow up shortly with a Snapfish album.

Enjoy!

A Day at the Park

Hi All,

Me and Tina took the kids to the park yesterday to have a little fun. The kids ran all over the place and were pretty tired by the time we got home. It is amazing how cooperative kids are when they are exhausted and you tell them that the Easter bunny is coming in the morning! Worked out beautifully for us, they were all in bed by 8:15PM!

Here are a few shots of our time at the park.

Storytime with my Sisters

Hi All,

After taking a shot at his sisters in the last post, I felt like I had to show the softer side of Jace's siblings. One evening at bedtime they actually let Jace sit in the bed with them and read him some stories. Something about the look on Jace's face in the second photo describes how happy he is to be with his big sisters. I think these pictures are great from the standpoint that his big sisters are taking care of him and they are all actually getting along. In fact, I am happy to report that no punches were thrown during this photo shoot!

Story time

Don't fall asleep

Hello All,

It has been a while since my last update, so I am going to put a few up at once to catch up. This batch was taken in late February. Carley actually put Jace on the couch with a blanket and he fell asleep. Of course, once he fell asleep he was fair game and his sister did not hesitate to capitalize on the moment. See for yourself....

Hilarity ensues
Aren't sisters just GREAT?

I am not ready for THIS!!!!

Hi All,

Well Hailey Rose came home from school today with her first note from a boy in her class! Of course, Tina thinks this is cute, but I am not AMUSED!!!! Can anybody out there tell me how to keep my daughter under lock and key forever, or at least until she turns 40?

Incriminating Note

Father Daughter Dance 2010

Hi All,

Well I am officially getting old! ;-) I had my first Father Daughter Dance this evening with Ms. Hailey Rose. We had a great time and Hailey danced a lot with her friends. I tried to stay out of the way and take a bunch of pictures to capture the moment. However, I did sneak in and get one slow dance with my little angel. Although Hailey is fighting a cold and doesn't feel great she managed to suck it up for the camera and have a great time. By my calculations, my next Father Daughter Dance will be with Ms. Carley Elizabeth in 2013! That seems so far away, but will most likely be here in the blink of an eye.

Enjoy the photos....

The Blizzard of 2010

Hi All,

First, I hope that everyone made it through this last round of snow safe and sound. I ended up working outside for most of the day and night to keep our driveway as clear as possible. I am sore in areas I didn't even know existed. The storm was vicious and ended up breaking our snow blower. It can be fixed, but it made clearing the driveway a very difficult job. I don't know about everyone else, but I intend to spend today on my couch with a cup of coffee and doing absolutely nothing! This will be made easier by the fact that we have no television at all since the snow on the roof is so high it buried our satellite dish and there is no signal! Anybody venturing out today, please be safe and take it slow. By the way, the official numbers are in and Philadelphia has seen 70.3 inches of snow this winter, easily making it the most snow this region has seen since they started tracking these things back in 1884.
