My baby girl Chloe turned three Tuesday, so I took the day off, and declared her birthday a holiday. Except we went to Chuck E. Cheese, which for me was like a day in jail, or worse. But Chloe loved it, and I guess that's what's important, right?
She is my baby doll from heaven.

Took a trip to the Pumpkin Patch this afternoon, and got a couple of photos. I am thrilled that Chloe is finally smiling when I ask her to, no small feat for the past couple of years. I had to trick her to get a smile shot. Caleb was sick this past weekend, but rallied enough to go with us. What am I saying- he had to go because Annette is out of town with the Wayne Show, and the cats weren't up to babysitting.















Connor and I went to see Mac King at Harrah's on a Friday afternoon a week or so ago, and had a great time. I had never seen Connor so excited- we had front row, aisle seats. Connor saw all the tricks close-up, and we were entertained. I was har-de-har-harring at all the juvenile innuendo in his act that was flying over Connor's head (Sir, did you just feel the first card jump into your pants pocket? No? How about the second card? Sir, did you just feel number two drop in your pants?) Mac King is a nice guy, and has a really pretty good show.

I made this last week in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of my high school, Yuma High in Yuma, Arizona. I am proud to be a Criminal! Let me know what you think of my story... I really enjoyed making it.

Connor sang in our Gospel Service last Sunday morning, and really did a great job with the old classic "It Is no Secret (What God Can Do)." Sure wish my dad was still here- he would have been so pleased, and so proud of Connor...

My nickname for Chloe is Babiness (Baby-ness). It's a combination of baby, happiness, and princess. She is all of those to me...

This is a good looking kid! My baby, Caleb, will turn two in January... where does the time go?

Here's a movie I made about our trip to Disneyland, and in particular, our breakfast with Minnie Mouse. Hope you like it!

Have you ever had breakfast with Minnie Mouse and her friends? We did, yesterday, at Connor and Chloe's first visit to the original Magical Kingdom, Disneyland.

Chloe is our daredevil. She does everything that Connor was afraid to do at two... She is practicing to be a crash test dummy, I think. Here's some cute photos of my cutie racing the Big Wheel, wearing Connor's Dodger batting helmet backwards...

I always take my camera when Connor and I go to baseball games. For one, Annette bought me a really great Nikon for my birthday, and you never know who you'll see in Vegas. I saw UNLV's Head basketball coach Lon Kruger on the field, and when I asked him for a photo with Connor, he invited us down on the field. We love UNLV Basketball, and Coach Kruger. It's a great photo...



Annette and I went to a John McCain rally led by Mitt Romney last Wednesday, mainly because I was e-mailed and told John McCain would be there. I am a McCain fan- I supported him when I lived in Arizona; we went to the same church for a couple of years (I was on staff at North Phoenix Baptist Church producing TV when he first started attending there); and I really support his leadership in international affairs. In my local caucus, I was the only delegate to the county convention who supported McCain (20 delegates for Romney). Anyhoo- we went, and McCain was not there (big disappointment), but we heard from Mitt Romney, and afterwards, I reverted to my journalism days, and took my camera to get some photos. I love figuring out how to get around- it's so easy for me to get the angle, snake around, and get in position for good photos. I still think I'm part of the press. Anyway, here's some Mitt Romney photos.
PS- I think the choice of Sarah Palin is really great- she has so much upside, and I think McCain- Palin will take the day in November...
