Easter Pics 2010

Mom thought Mike needed an apron so he would not get his shirt dirty! I am sure he was thrilled.

Mike probably realizing that everyone is taking pictures and then he realizes that they will be posted on facebook!

Amie made her first cheesecake… it was awesome!

Amie cutting her first piece!

New Years Eve Shennagians

New Years this year was fun. Here are the pictures from the night… enjoy!

Meet Claudia… she is Clayton’s cousin and she is from Germany. She was in town for a family wedding. Jen loved her because she brought her favorite kind of wine.

Brooke is going to love me for this!

Bill and his lady friend (aka Edith). Her name is Mary. Clayton made her fit right in to the group by farting on her… the best thing was is she called him out on the fact that he farted on her… classic!

Not really sure what is going on here…

Jen boozin it up

Random

Clayton trying to play guitar and sing. Songs that were visited this night… the doobie song, nudie bar, and a brand new song that Clayton made up that night. That is all I will say about that.

J Biz… the freshest gangsta around.

I always bring fireworks on New Years. This year I brought 4 artillery shells but no tube. The tube is essential to being able to light these dudes off. So since we did not have one… we did what every American would do in a dire situation and crafted one. **I don’t recommend doing this, it is not the safest thing to do, but it worked rather well… kinda**

Before

Getting ready to light the first shell… and getting ready to run like hell to safety.

The aftermath… we were able to light off 3 out of the tube. It only went about 15 feet in the air. The last shell I just blew up on the ground.I think we successfully lighted 15 bottle rockets at once… a feat accomplished by only the best.

Meet Josh Emerson. This is not from New Years, this was my partner in blowing up stuff. He also supplied the pictures for this blog post.

Christmas Day is crazy for us. We only get a 3 hour break during the day but even though it was busy it was awesome. I managed to take some pics of course. Enjoy!

Amie and Emily, they are cousins and they both just obtained some boyfriends. Not sure how I feel about that….. haha just kidding.

That is Chrissie my sister on the left, Amie my niece in the middle and my mom. Amie was not expecting that smooch!

Sarah my niece being smashed.

I did put that there… and of course I got that wonderful look for taking this picture.

Debbie makes the best the cookies in the world… no really she does!

Amie and one of her wonderful looks… I have so many of these to blackmail her with… its great!

Amie and me… she loves her Uncle so much!

Whew… that was the last picture… I wanted to post more but I restrained myself from doing so. I will be posting the links to the full Christmas albums when they are uploaded. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and was able to spend it with some people you love.

Christmas Eve Pics

I went to my sister’s house tonight for dinner and I am staying the night. It was nice to be here spending time with family. Dinner was awesome and I helped with the Santa Clause duties.

I am sitting in a most wonderfully comfortable theater chair writing this blog post. Enjoy the pics!

This was my job as Santa… I was happy to help!

My sister’s tree… it is huge… 12 feet to be exact.

The 2nd Christmas tree…

Used my fisheye lens on this picture.

I went a little crazy taking pictures tonight!

I wish there could have been fire going but it isn’t working right.

I love the way my sister decorates her Christmas trees.

but wait there is one more… this is basically the same as one of the pics above but this was after Santa visited.

Sarah got a Wii… I am jealous… I should sneak up there and  hide it somewhere… just kidding Sarah I would never do that….??? :)

Playing Santa

Today I was Santa at the daycare. Its funny how kids love Santa… but at the same time they are completely terrified. A number of kids immediately started crying and would not get anywhere near me.

This girl was one of those kids… she loved Santa from a good distance but would start crying when I moved towards her. She eventually warmed up to me and gave me a hug at the end of my rounds.

Santa and Mrs. Clause! Well ok she is not Mrs. Clause but that is Miss Lori the Cook.

Tracy… she is going to love me for posting this.

Santa’s little helper

this kid was so cute!
