George the gymnast

Saturday afternoon the whole family was sitting around in the family room and I remembered that I hadn’t filmed George doing his latest trick. Rachel called me in the other day and told me to watch what he had come up with. I’m not sure how he imagined that up, or how he decided to put his hands in the air, but it was pretty funny.

I’m sure Grandma Watrous will cringe every time she sees him do it. In the video window below there’s a button in the bottom right that will make the video full-screen. It might take a minute to start after you press play. Give it a second.

Squirrel in the backyard

The other day we ate lunch with in the backyard. While we sat there, someone noticed a squirrel sitting on top of our swingset. After lunch we decided to take a little video of him. Hope you enjoy it.

Easter egg hunt and some pictures

So I’ve been busy and haven’t gotten around to posting pictures and other tidbits. Here are some pictures and a video to get you caught up.

And here are some pictures (including our Christmas gift of a new picnic table from G&G Watrous).

Clara and Dad play with new webcam

Clara and I had a little fun today with my new webcam software.  It has facial recognition and allows you to decorate yourself up with accessories.  You can imagine how much she loved that.  If you’ve got a webcam then let us know and we’ll do some sweet video conferencing.

On the first day of Christmas…

Our video this year is a modified twelve days of Christmas, but I didn’t have a lot of time to work on it.  I hope you enjoy the rough cut anyway.  Merry Christmas!
