The 5 Second Photo Shoot

Sunday night - 8pm and oh poo - I haven't taken a single picture this weekend. It's not like we didn't do anything - Friday was out with Chris' coworkers which was a blast, Saturday running around and being home, Sunday the zoo and yet - here we are - almost bedtime and no pictures... So - I introduce the 5 second photo shoot.

First - you will notice the ever creepy painting of a clown in the background of this next picture. This painting was given to my mom as a baby gift for Matt, my brother - I think. So my mom proceeded to decorate his room with clowns and circus type items - up through high school - I can't make this stuff up. I think this has to explain a lot why Matt is the way he is. Could you imagine going to sleep every night with this picture starring at you? yikes. Why do I have it - well you don't just get rid of a gem like that - I found out my boss doesn't quite care for clowns - so I add fuel to the fire and make sure its in the background if we need to video chat. :)



Next - have I mentioned Heidi doesn't like pants? She is like an 50 year old man coming home from work and immediately taking off their pants and sitting on the couch. It doesn't matter if Chris or I ask her - "Heidi - where are your pants?" Her answer: "Are we going somewhere?" Us: "No" Heidi: "Then, I'm okay."




We were waiting to Skype - so I continued with my 5 second photo shoot. Chris has taught Heidi to say: "Stop Paparazzi" when ever I try to take too many pictures of her as well as she knows how the camera works - so this time - I let her take some pictures of me. I know - I know - you have never seen a more beautiful person - but keep in mind - it's after spending a hot and humid day at the zoo - no makeup and grease - you get this super model!

Onto Skype! Best invention ever - the kids love it - even though a majority of the time is spent making funny faces. Please excuse the messy desk - It was a busy work at week and didn't have time to clean up. Oh and you can't tell too much in the pictures - but I'm pretty sure my dad is channeling Grizzly Adams as a style mentor...Bev is away with her sisters - so it's bachelor time at Grandpa's house...










Also congrats to my dad for winning the Member - Member this year! (That's golf for those who don't know what the hell I'm talking about) Maybe the beard was the secret weapon!




Yet another random post - enjoy!
