RJ getting his Haircut

This is RJ getting his haircut at the beauty college. (Technically this is RJs 2nd haircut. Ryan actually took him a couple months ago to get a few loose hairs snipped. But this is probably his 1st REAL haircut.) I just love the Car Smock they used...as if it makes it all better!! I love my 2 boys and thier new hair cuts!!

Another PhotoShop Adventure

Here is something else I created in PhotoShop. Believe it or not this little thing has quite a bit a time into it. Lots of fun and I think everyone should have the opportunity once in their lifetime to be able to see their name in burning flames with stars surrounding it.

With a rebel yell he cried- "more, more, more"

Anji wanted me to take a picture of his "Mowhawk". When he is a rebellious teenager I will know where it all started and who to blame.

Went on a walk today, it was hot but it was good to get out and exercise. I looked for the "Southgate" geocache again and didn't find it but we were able to take these pictures (which I think are some of the best pictures of my two most favorite people).

RJ THE BRUISER....

Rj just got done with his first MMA fight with himself. Good news is that he won bad news is that he lost also. Just goes to show you when you use anger as your primary coping mechnism everybody loses. Honestly, I have no idea how he got it I noticed it right after I caught his cousin Courtney hitting him....it was just on his back and totally unrelated to the incident (I think).

Since RJ has been more mobile......trouble, trouble everywhere.

Anji has been really worried about baby proofing the house. She has covered all the electrical sockets, hidden all the loose wires but she doesn't seem to be able to do anything about our cobra problems. I Snapped this shot of RJ before she woke up in the morning. Man he loves those cobras...can't keep him away from them.

World Traveler......

RJ recently took a trip to the beach without us....(since he just learned how to drive). He sent us this Pic with the Caption, "Having the time of my life". I am glad to see that he is still driving in his car seat.....the extra height gives him some more visibility.

Photo Editing Class....

Had some fun as you can see with the latest class in getting my technology endorsement. Here are two picture the first one is a before picture and the second is after I worked my magic on it.
Before Photoshop:

After Photo Shop:

30 minutes in 2 minutes...

I wanted to show how much RJ is moving around so I did a little time lapse videography.

RJ's Army Crawl.......

Last week I took a video editing class and learned about stop animation. I was hanging out with my mother on father's day and decided to have a little fun with my camera phone. I know it's short but you can see that RJ is starting to get mobile.

Midway Utah Summer Conference 2009

We had a fun weekend with Anji's family in Midway Utah. Every year I go to a summer counseling conference and usually I spend it with other counselor in some hotel in SLC. This year we booked our condos and I commuted to SLC. I had loads of fun and hope that this becomes a tradition. It feels less like work and more like a vacation when my family is there.

Teaching RJ to drive....yeah my kid is a little ahead of the curve

Reverse works.....

Anji came and got me and wanted me to come see where she found RJ.  It really isn't a big deal but given the few seconds of worry that RJ cause her...its worth mentioning.  Anji laid RJ on the ground to get some tummy time and went into the kitchen...when she couldn't find him she looked a little harder and he had reversed himself right back into a little cubby hole.  Picture will be coming soon
