Some more scenes from day care.  This is a school bus to help the kids learn each others names.

A detail of Lil’ Dude.

Noah called this piece, “This People”.

It’s game day (Pats vs. Jets) and you live in enemy territory. Fans of the opposing team will try to distract you (by reflecting light in your face off a mirror), especially while you try to get proper nourishment.

You can’t let them get to you. You have a job to do, your team needs you to cheer them on, so you persevere.

As the game begins you are psyched, your team gets off to a big lead.

Then, in the second half the other team wraps up your offense and takes the lead.

Your team can’t adjust to this new defense and you “spill the crayons”, losing a game you should have won.

This post is dedicated to those people who are forced to live in these kind of hostile environments. It’s not easy, but at least we look good doing it.

Ryan and Ellen got crabs and invited a bunch of us over to share, so for the second weekend in a row we got (to eat) crabs!

It’s a messy dinner so I had to set the camera down after this flick.

Thanks for letting us help you get rid of your crabs Ryan and Ellen.

Before Amanda and Brian had to hustle for a flight back to the west coast, we met up with them for some coffee.

Noah convinced Amanda to take some photos of him…

I still feel like a 16 year old, so seeing my name with my wife’s name, and our son’s name… on a tree… together like this… at our son’s day care…  Grown-up times.

Lil’ dude’s cubbie.

New day care means new scenes for our walk to the playground.

Sara was back at the playground after spending a month and half with her grandparents who live in Switzerland.  Good to see her again.

Kids grow up fast.  Soon they will look at trees with their own kids names on em.

We’re almost over adjusting.
