I love how this turned out. He kept using a friends hat and tipping this orange soda like a frosty brew.

This is such a cool city. Hanging out with my dad this weekend and every place we need/want to go hang out is within walking distance. This comes in handy when you have 4 or 12 beers and don’t have to drive home. Just a 2min walk home.

The other great thing about being up here is all the microbrews. Portland is known for having e most of 2 things. Strip clubs and microbrews. We aren’t in Portland so we haven’t visited any strip clubs. But the bar we’ve been hitting here, Wanker’s Corner, has 30 microbrews on tap.

It’s been fun so far. 4 days is a perfect vacation. Anything more and you start to miss home too much.

I may not not a lot about cars, but I know what cars look cool to me. I got to snap a few photos from the car show in Henderson this weekend. Wish I could have stayed longer, but the temp hit 100 for the last time this summer and the fam was getting annoying. I can only hear “it’s hot, i’m tired, this is boring” so many times before I blow a gasket. Anyway.. Enjoy. See the full flickr gallery here.

The Crew

What a Saturday. Got Nolan fitted for his tux, cruising around The District in Henderson. The kids love to walk around shopping.

The District isn’t a bad place to take pictures. It was dead on Saturday, I guess it’s not fun to walk around with it’s 105 degrees out.

I could make a qoop book with pictures of these 3. I have plenty of pictures over the last 3 years using my Canon XTi.

I’ve been sampling a few different beers lately. For those that don’t know I’m not an avid beer drinker and I’ve only recently started drinking beer.

Going out drinking with friends is a lot cheaper when your drinking $3 beers as opposed to drink $10 scotches.

Favorite beers so far are Labatte Blue, Stella Artois & a Portland microbrew called Firehouse5.

Whinners get nothing!

I’ll be happy when this phase is over. Both boys went through this one. Nolan is right in the thick of it.

How can anyone be sad when they have hulk hands on?

A series of news for my oldest. I tried not to embarrass him too much. He forgot his lunch money that morning so I drove to the bus stop with my camera. Crazy how fast the years are going by now.

I’m so happy my iPhone 3Gs was on hand to record this great moment in family history. So happy to see another member from my generation to experience the never ending bliss of marriage. Does the sarcasm come across in this text? haha

Young Love

My cousin and his girlfriend came over to my house to shoot photos for a possible Save the Date invite or a photo to put up at the wedding. She’s expecting a little one so I’d like to take photos of both of them each month to show progress. At the end of 9 months I want to put together a photo book to put out somewhere in their home.

I’ve made 2 photobooks so far using Qoop. It’s simple to use and the books turn out amazing. Always a good conversation.

Wilderness

We don’t get to go camping much. My oldest had a blast riding around on trails. It’s the simple stuff that you remember when you’re a kid.
