A few randomly selected photos

Good Evening one and all!

I realized that in a previous post that Erin said I would post some of my photographic work, and I happily oblige at this point, after taking a few minutes to catch everyone up.

Let's start with the youngest kids.  Sami is now pushing a year old, and is over 100 pounds.  She is a sweetheart when she want to be, but is a holy terror of a toddler when she wants to be.  Her training continues, and will continue for another year or so before she is ready to accompany Ian to school.

Ashton is 8, and still is picked on by Sami on a regular basis.  Even though he is the alpha dog in the house (Sami has made that clear), the two of them do not necessarily agree on most things - especially politics and baseball.  Ashton is a Red Sox fan, and Sami is a Yankees fan.  At least they agree that the only hockey team is the Boston Bruins (I have them well trained).

Ian continues to amaze all of us on a regular basis.  His musings are more like that of a 25 year old, and really will give you pause to think.

Jordan continues his clarinet mastery (Gary must have rubbed off on him), and his playing has improved greatly with his new instrument.

Alex was recently so kind to inform us that he is the #2 ranked lacrosse goalie in his division.  His skills are amazing, and his coach has invited the Westminster College lacrosse coach to come take a look at him.

Erin is doing amazing work at her new job.  She loves what she does, and she is so good at it.  Sure, there are rough days, but most of the time she comes home with a smile on her face.

And now, for me.  The boring part.  I continue to work for the City, with only 11 years, 2 weeks and 45 minutes until I am eligible to retire.  Unlikely that I will (or that I will make 30 years with the City), so we will see how that goes.  I recently completed my FEMA Professional Continuity Practitioner, and I am working on my master level.  I have also been placed in charge of the airport's Continuity of Operations program.  A lot of big words for saying that we will keep going when it gets ugly

I haven't picked up my camera much lately because of my schedule.  However, I have a few that I would like to share here.

That is all for now.  Love to all.
