Preggo Pics

Jen and I went out by the golf course and took some pics – trees with shade are a definite plus!  The preggo belly is definitely getting to be large – growing a little Pongie looks like hard work! There was a single flash camera left  on full power, about 45 degrees.

Parental Visit

Mom and Dad came down to visit this weekend, and they brought/cooked a TON of food!  Yay!  Nothing like comfort food to help you along while your wife is pregnant… that doesn’t sound right. Jen wanted a pic of us before the baby came since we most likely won’t have a chance to see my …

Sharp Aquos 46″ LCD Television

That’s right!  Jen and I picked up a new TV last night.  Now… to figure out if we can mount it above the fireplace or not.  I’m pretty sure it will be fine right there.  The 27″ CRT television that  Jen got me 9 or so years ago has served us well, but I think its …

Happy Birfday to Gene!

We drove up to Prunedale today and met Mom and Dad, then caravan’ed to San Jose – dropped the truck off at Mike and Mary’s, and then met Gene and Kristine for lunch.  Had a little coffee afterwards then headed back home.  Quick little day trip, but it was enjoyable nonetheless.

CygNet Party

Stopped in Santa Barbara for the CygNet dinner party.  It was good, drunken times.  Well… not for me, I ran around and took pictures of everything.  And they let me!   Here, Chris Smith took the camera from me.  I am flanked by Mike and Chris here (from left to right).  Good times, good times… …

The J. Paul Getty Museum (“The Getty”)

This year’s annual CygNet party included a trip to The Getty followed by an awesome dinner banquet in Santa Barbara.   Chris and I spent almost the entire time there wandering outside taking pictures of the scenery, architecture (amazing) and random things scattered around the grounds. I was worried that it would be a horrible …

Tahoe Snowboarding Trip

Took a nice trip up to Tahoe for a snowboarding weekend.  Marcia was gracious enough to let us use the cabin, so we all had a nicely affordable place to stay.   We had a bit of a conversation trying to figure out who was going to get chains, if anyone had 4WD, etc. when …

Carmel Valley weekend getaway – it was swell

Mike and Mary treated us all to a nice relaxing weekend at the Carmel Valley Lodge, the same place that we had a nice weekend a couple years ago.  Its out in Carmel Valley (obviously) and is close to a nice tiny downtown area, a lot of restaurants, and even more wineries.  Monterey County has some …

Trying to keep up with the pictures…

I’m trying to keep up with the frequency of the preggie pics, but i’m finding it hard to stay on target…  I did get a few on Wednesday before the night was over.  It might be easier if we had a little more room to work with but our rooms are so tiny (and i’ll admit, …

Nintendo DS Lite

I got my Nintendo DS Lite yesterday, yay!  It’s pretty neat and with the R4DS in combination with a microSD card – it will hold everything I need to play.  So far i’m really diggin’ the split screen action – we’ll see how attached I get to it!
