Playing with my new toy.

December was filled with dentist appointments and doctor appointments as we tried to fit as much in as we could before the insurance deductibles reset on January 1st. Somehow we managed to get Christmas shopping done too. Mom and Dad came down for the extended weekend. We had a good time despite half of us being sick with a really nasty chest cold. I am on the tail end of it now and Nuan is in the middle of it. We are really hoping that the kids don't catch it. It was a Wii Christmas for the kids. They got a console, a few Wii-motes, and nunchucks and some games. They also got a Wii-Fit which we all like, despite the fact that it called us fat and clumsy within the first few minutes. Well, it called me fat and clumsy, it told Nuan and the kids they were just clumsy. For Christmas, my lovely wife gave me a flash for my camera. These are pictures I took the next day with it.

Kindergarten Christmas program.

Here are some pictures of Natasha performing in the Christmas program her teacher organized. It was a very nice treat for us parents and I really appreciate the work that Mrs. Armstrong put into it. You can click here if you want to view all 13 photos.

I Can Explain!!

Last weekend I took some more pictures of the kids holding the signs. It is funny how they can make sad faces and michievous grins really well, but once the camera is pointed at them all they can do is smile, unless of course I ask them to smile. Then they start looking at me like they are constipated.



We also took a family picture last weekend. It took me a while to balance everything out so the Christmas lights were glowing and we were visible. I think it was worth the effort. If you want to see the rest of the pictures you can click here.
