How about a Historical Post. I was cleaning up my pictures directory and came across this old picture and I love it. I took it about 6 years ago. It is of Cody fixing his Jeep while wearing my hard hat. I turned this photo into a kid pic contest years ago and it took second. Just thought I would share it.

I sat down today to find a picture of Cody to keep my current theme running. I could not find a photo of Cody that I liked so I will have to take a new one soon. The problem is he is such a ham that it is difficult to get the candid shot. I will work on it and I reserve the right to post again later… Watch out Cody… I wonder who is next?

OK, yesterday I made Clay mad with my post about his stairway face-plant incident. Now being a fair parent of three boys I don’t want any of them saying that I did not treat them all equally. Therefore, today I figured I would upset Mr. Mike. Being a teenager Mike tries to limit his activity with the family, we spend way to much time embarrassing him. He spends most of his free time talking to his friends on myspace. Here is a photo that he took for his myspace page. Dad got a hold of it and decided to share with everyone. Remember to delete those pictures off of the camera when your done with them Mike. I seem to remember saying that before. The best part, I am the only one who has the password to the blog!

Remember back in the day when your parents were always telling you to do this or not to do that? I am now my father and I am always saying stop, don’t do that, your going to get hurt, etc. Recently my most popular phrase is “walk down the stairs.” I cannot tell you how many times I have made all three of them go back to the top of the stairs and walk back down, they HATE it! Well sometimes you just have to learn for yourself. Clay was flying down the stairs and somewhere along the line lost his footing and bam, face-plant. This picture is a few days after the great fall and Clay is none to happy about me taking it! The real question is now; will Clay continue to run down the stairs? Only time will tell, I’ll let you know!

You know every now and then you have to surprise your wife with things that she did not expect. Here is a picture that she took of the flowers that I sent her at work, just because. She loves getting flowers delivered to her at work.

Continuing the grandkids theme, here is a photo from the party of Great Grandma with her Grandkids. At least everyone in this photo is making a normal face. No Photoshop needed.

Here is group shot of Great Grandma’s family, not everyone is in attendance but it is close. Great Grandma was very surprised that we were all there. It was great seeing everyone again for some of us it has been way too long. I will try to post individual family pictures over the next few days.

Ok, the last day at Disney, we went to the Animal Kingdom. They have a new ride here that just opened called Expedition Everest. I could not get Clay or Cody to ride it but Christi, Mike, and I jumped on. The ride is short but it is crazy. You first go up a big hill and then just sit for a few seconds. Then you start to fall backwards into a tight cork screw in the pitch dark. Suddenly you come to another stop. Here you see an animation of the Yeti ripping up your train track. Then you go forward down the steep drops that are very fast as you pull into the station. It is a very cool ride that I recommend to all. Mike and I give it two arms up, each! I have no idea who the two guys in the front of the car are. They were just lucky to get to ride with us!

Check this out. A few times a month Disney is doing an after hours event they call The Pirate and Princess Party. What they do is close down the park at 7:30 pm and then limit the number of people that can be in the park. Oh yea, there is an extra fee for this. What they say is that no ride will have a longer than 5 min wait. They stay open to 12:30 am. Well about 11:30 the park was just about empty. The boys got to ride the Big Thunder Mountain 15 times. The first 6 times they rode it they did so without even getting off the ride. The first 2 of the 6 times they were the only ones on the ride. They loved it; we then ran from ride to ride getting right on each one. The younger boys loved it, it was a once in a life time experience, worth every penny!

OK back to Epcot, this time Mom and Dad were done much earlier and got to go on some real rides. Here the whole family is enjoying Test Track. Clay decided that this was his favorite ride at Epcot and rode it as much as he could. I don’t remember what his final count was but I sure it was in double figures. The rest of us gave up after just 2 or 3 trips. The ride picture to your

Day two of the conference and the days were already becoming long. Christi and I managed to get a picture in front of Cinderella’s castle. The boys were there but they didn’t want their picture taken right now. Oh well, their loss…
