Family Update 3/2/07
March 2, 2007
Wow, been three days since my last post. I have been really enjoying rediscovering America’s Army. I havent been playing it too much until the last couple of days. So, what’s going on…
Since Suzanne forgot to take her camera to the Showstopper Dance Competition in Phoenix a couple of weekends ago, we dont have any pictures. One of the other dads who was there recently gave her a CD with a mess of pictures from the competition. So, we are cleaning them up and should get them posted up here this weekend. Be on the watch for them!
Tomorrow, Savannah goes to Young Authors. To qualify for the event, you have to write a story and have it judged one of the best in the school. Then, the winners go on a bus trip somewhere (Phoenix? or Tucson?) for an event where authors speak and you can meet childrens authors. There is also writing workshops and such. Or at least thats how I understand it. Sean has been to several of them and really enjoyed them. This will be Savannah’s first trip and she is really excited. She has to be at the school at 6:00 am tomorrow, so I guess we dont get a late Saturday sleep in. Luckily, we dont have to go.
I have recently began in earnest again my workout regime. I havent been able to do much lately since something happened to my foot in November. I feel really out of shape right now. I have been getting on the treadmill most days after work.  Today was a day off but I went out there anyways. After about 12 minutes, the treadmill shut dow. This is like the third time in the last year or so it has died. The last few times it has been a fuse, but this still cant be good. I wonder if someone is telling me dont workout
 It might be time for a new treadmill. This one doesnt owe us anything as its over 10 years old.
Alright, back to a night of Americas Army…
Celebrity Mercury Mexico Cruise Photos Uploaded
December 8, 2006
I have uploaded a batch of photos from our recent cruise on board the Celebrity Mercury to Mexico. This was our first major event since the purchase of the new camera, so hopefully, they have come out nice and everyone can enjoy them.
I think we ended up with something like 500 keeper photos. I selected about 160 of them to upload to Mr Papa’s World to give a good flavor of the wonderful cruise. I think Suzanne is going to be uploading most if not all of those keepers to her Cruise Talk site and do in depth features on a bunch of different aspects of the cruise.
These 160 photos weighed in at about 175 MB, so it took a while to get them uploaded and into the album. As such, most do not have captions or correct names at this point, but I wanted to let everyone take a look at them. Over the weekend, Suzanne and I will be changing the titles to something descriptive and adding a brief description of what each picture is.
In the meantime, please feel free to enjoy the pictures of our recent cruise.
