Posted by Michael in Special Events

It’s that time of year again!  Every Christmas, we send out festive cards with an annual update letter and a family photo to our friends and family.  We paid a visit to our favorite photographer, Mandy, at the local Wal-Mart.  We always request Mandy, since Aiden smiles easily for her.  She can even make Gavin smile on...

There was a charity benefit concert for a local teen at Coruscant Comics on Saturday.  Chrissy had just left with her sisters, but she called me as she passed by the parking lot to tell me that there were Star Wars characters outside.  They were there to support the event, which was very cool of them.  Chrissy said we should...

This year is Gavin’s first Mother’s Day, so I wanted to do something special for Chrissy involving our two boys.   I looked around online for gift ideas that include your children, but I only found a number of options that wouldn’t work for toddlers and tiny babies (like building a photo frame out of popsicle...

Chrissy took the boys to the photographer again today for their Easter photos. This was a continuation of last week’s appointment, where Gavin cried the entire time.  It was just as well that the last session ended early, since Gavin was in a much better mood today.  Luckily, the photographer saved last week’s photos...

Mar 05, 09 My Downgraded Flickr Account Is Ruining My 365 Projects

Posted by Michael in Other Things

For a long time, I scoffed at image sharing sites like Flickr.  Who needs a photo storage site when you have a gallery on your own web site?  Well, I found that our web gallery wasn’t set up to do 365 projects, and I had a free Flickr Pro account through my internet host, so I decided to give it a try.  I was really happy...

Chrissy likes to have professional pictures taken of the boys every three months or so.  We’ve been to a lot of places for photos, but I think that we have settled on the studio in our local Wal-Mart.   The photographers there always manage to make Aiden smile and they’re very accommodating with our requests.  Also,...

Nov 14, 08 Memories Of Halloweens Past And Present

Posted by Michael in Being A Dad

Chrissy recently found some time to take some Halloween photos of Aiden and Gavin.  Yes, Halloween was two weeks ago, but it’s hard to find time for these things when you’ve got two kids!  She could have easily blown it off, but Halloween photos are an important family tradition in our house.  We’ve got fabric...
