Kids Being Cute in June

Link: https://picasaweb.google.com/ultimadj/TheKidsBeingCuteInJune


What a Summer!

Wow! What a busy summer!! A few of the highlights include:
  • A road trip to Tennessee that involved the Adirondacks, a crazy frenchman, a crew from nova scotia, and sleeping 8 in a kitchen!
  • Isaac's first trip to the beautiful Berkshire mountain range.
  • House hunting
  • My 29th birthday
  • Family get-togethers...
We've made more memories in the last 30 days than the previous 3 months combined!! Woo!

Adding to the string of fun and fancy free joy at home, things have been going really well at work. As usual, me and the crew are taking our project to new heights while enjoying our time together. Ha! Today, we had a scooter race. Yes... think 70's, foot-powered scooter.

We did time trials up and down the trail out behind out building. I came in fourth, falling a full 3 seconds behind the leader (Dustin, that was crazy man!), but far from the back of the pack. :) What a blast!! This was a proper scooter with 8 inch wheels and a shock. The first few pumps didn't feel like much, but after that... WHOA! BLISTERING UPRIGHT SPEED!! It was terrifying! While many waivered, we only had 2 major wipeouts. (Not too shabby for the fact that we had 30+ participants). My job is fun, and the people I do it with are even more so.

Speaking of 30+, I'm turning 29 at the end of the month. I'm almost to the land of 30-somethings. It's amazing how the time flew. Bring on the next decade baby!

Annabelle's Ringtone

I was browsing Zedge for ringtones the other day when I stumbled onto "Papa Fone". The kid was adorable! I thought, "Man, I have GOT to get Annabelle to do this." Today, she did. Click the listen button below or download the mp3 using the download link. Aaah! So cute!

Paintball

Yesterday, I played paintball with Armondo's groomsmen. It was fun. I came home with enough mud on my pants that I had to pre-wash them outside before I brought them into the house. XD Catch the video and photo galleries at the bottom of the post!


Three quick stories:

From 2011-05-14_Paintball

One of my favorite moments was when I was storming the castle with Nathan inside. I saw him scurry around the back and started to move in that direction, then slowed as I came to the corner, waiting for a team-mate to flank around the other way. Pfft, pfft, pfft! Nathan got me in the back after rushing around. Turns out, Nathan had done a stellar job of striking terror into the hearts of my mates, leaving me the only one to approach the building. :D


From 2011-05-14_Paintball

Me and mud get along. In the first round, I ran and dove for some low cover on the side of the field. In quick order, I flanked left, covering the distance to the middle of the field doing a belly crawl. When I popped up over the side, the other team didn't know what hit them. XD

From 2011-05-14_Paintball


In one of the scenarios, Nathan was a VIP and Ryan was his bodyguard. The VIP took up cover in the far corner of the field. I called out for suppressive fire and advanced under cover as much as possible, covering the full distance of the field. 1, 2, 3, Another burst of suppressive fire as I
flanked right, taking them by surprise again and ending the game in a 5 round burst. Woo!

Annabelle's Photography

Annabelle has a digital camera. The battery life only gives it a few days before it needs to be recharged, but man alive, she loves to capture anything and everything!

Here's a quick video from one of her photo sets this week: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvZtYyI39SM
