Sydney – Finalist in Elementary School Art Project
Late last year Sydney entered an art class at her elementary school. It was a very last-minute project that I refused to do with her due to her late request despite knowing about it for weeks. However, her mom was much more understanding. The contest was to create art of any type, from writing a […]

Andrew’s First Edit Job
The day I’ve been waiting for finally arrived. The day I should start teaching the kids how to edit FOR ME! Today Andrew is doing a cutdown/stringer of the entire AGT 2017 season while removing all commercials. He’s all over the JKL keys and is learning fast. Because it’s one of those really repetitive jobs […]

FAITH Dance Performance
I wish I had a better recording of this, but beggars can’t be choosers. Andrew is a great dancer.

Andrew, Maximus and Sydney School Photos, 2017-18
Today I finally had time to hang up the most recent batch of school photos. We were pretty happy with the way they all came out this year.

Glasses Try-On for Sydney
As it turns out Sydney needs glasses. Not as bad as her brother did, but she’s crossed over that line enough that we’re going to get her a pair soon. To get the ball rolling we went and tried on a few different frames to get some ideas.

Over two years ago I took the kids to the hobby shop (in part to revisit my own youth) and let each of them pick out a model to build. And finally, the first one was built. So I guess two more years before we do the next one. This one was just a snap […]

Dr. Goldberg Visit, Fall 2017
It’s been awhile, but we finally made our trip out to CA to see Dr. Michael Goldberg. While we go on a regular basis regardless of what’s going on, this time we were motivated to go because Maximus has been having issues staying on his clean diet. While it’s true that every kid (and most adults) […]

Talking With Andrew – Creepy Movie Trailer Idea
The boys (not so much Sydney) have always liked watching scary movie trailers. Even if they are not old enough to watch the movie, they obsess over even the most terrifying trailers in hopes that one day they can watch the movies. So while sitting with him at the table one day I flipped on […]

Pure Michigan – Summer Vacation Begins
To kick off the first days of summer vacation we spent a week in Michigan visiting family and doing fun activities. Mini-golf, Dave & Busters and seeing a movie are just some of the highlights. While everything I was shooting was supposed to be for this year’s “Summer video”, I couldn’t help myself and created […]
