Skiing At Sunrise

Last Saturday Marisa and I took Livi and Kiera skiing. The snow was perfect - Fresh Dry Powder. The weather was perfect too. Here is the video. Hope you enjoy.

The Circus Comes To Show Low

A couple of months ago the Circus came to town and I took the kids. The Kids loved it! It was pretty good for a traveling circus in Show Low. They had Flying Trapeze Artists, a Tight Rope Walker, a Bear that could walk on top of a barrel, they even had a round, Steal Cage that 3 motor cycle drivers road around in, all at the same time. It was pretty impressive. Here are some of the pictures. I had to shoot with the available light. It was pretty dark so I boosted the ISO to 1600, opened the aperture as wide as possible (f2.8), and slowed the shutter down as far as I could without losing complete focus.

A Snow Day For The Kids!

As promised here is the video of the snow. It was a fun day for the kids. This was actually the 2nd or 3rd snow of the year but this one brought enough snow to play in, so we'll call it the 1st.

Things of interest in the video. Check out the cool snow suits on Kiera and Dillon. They were donated to us by a Friend that moved to Sedona. Dillon with his favorite toy ever! (Thanks Uncle Kevin and family). Ashlyn with her snot covered lips. (Don't get me wrong she is still cute). And the fight that broke out due to some snow in the face! All and All a pretty fun day. Hope you enjoy.

Long Lost Cousin Stacie

While I was taking a break from my blog, Stacie (Smith) Downs left me a comment. Here is her very cool blog. And here is her adorable family. Great photos huh? And Stacie I agree with you, it is very cool to be able to keep in touch with the family through blogs.






Hey look at me this is 3 days in a row that I have updated my blog. I know what you are thinking... something must be wrong with me.... But, no I am fine. By the way we got some decent snow last night (3 to 4 inches) and the kids had a snow day. Marisa shot a video of the kids playing in the snow. I will try to post it next time. Marisa is on the other computer and won't let me on, and my lap top doesn't have the software for transferring the video.

Suns vs Spurs in San Antonio

Once a Year the Phx. Suns take their radio affiliates on a trip with the team. This year Marisa and I got to go to San Antonio. Our seats were 7 rows from the floor. Not perfect for taking pictures but, I did manage to get a few good shots. Let me know what you think. I guess I can only upload 5 at a time. So I will do some more in my next post.

Thanksgiving In Pima

OK, So it has been a while. A lot has happened since I last posted. I have a lot to talk about. Last night Jen and Mike watched our kids in Phx. so we could go to the Suns game. Thank you sooo much!!!!! And yes the Suns won. They always win when we go. They should invite us more often, huh?. Well instead of dumping an incredible amount of information tonight I want to try something new. I will attempt to upload a video from our new camera (bought on Black Friday at Wal-Mart for 249$). We were in Pima for Thanksgiving along with the rest of the family and it was a blast. 6 different families, 14 Grandchildren and Flynt and Ambers dog crammed into Mom and Dad's (what once seemed big, but now feels quite small) house. Here's the family picture.

Dillon's favorite thing in the whole world is to talk about, play with, and ask his Grandparents to buy him a tractor. Well Grandpa let him do the next best thing, drive his tractor. Here's the video.
