Another one from the beach, and my favorite. I took this picture when they were jumping in mid air...love it..

More Beach Pictures

Forgive me these were taken with my phone's camera. The top one is the other airport shot, and to the next is at Divine Fish house, with his new shirt, and we were hanging out on the deck by the fishing boats. The deck had rubber pads and was floating in the water. He loved that the deck moved. The one with the log was on the street by our house where we tried to roll that log back.

If its the Beaches

We were down at Myrtle Beach for the first time in a while. This was Jemma and I's second visit together. The first time was with my side of the family, and now this time we went with her Dad's side of the family. It was "beast". Anyone who was there will get that one. We golfed alot, played alot at the beach, and went to a waterpark. This picture is from the airport. Jemma took lots of pics of Donovan from the waterpark, I got most of the videos we were lucky enough to capture. I got his first time in the salt water, ever. I'm going to post those soon, so stay tuned. Enjoy some of these pics here. I and Love and yinz.

Donovan driving the forklift

We were at Independent Carpet and Tile in Bridgeville picking out tile and new floor for our bathroom and fireplaces. Our friends Doug and Tanya Mills own the business. So Doug showed Donovan the forklift and he had to get on it, we turned it on and we let him use the levers. I cant believe how interested in big trucks and machinery he is, and of course Thomas the Train. We just got him an actual train (a replica of Thomas) that blows bubbles, and hes in love with it. He still likes the movies and books of course. He can say "bubbles", his 3rd word, after moma and dada.

Must have Album

(Ep) 2006 by one of our favorite Artists, cant wait to see them down in Myrtle Beach this summer, on my birthday. Looks like the stars have aligned for this show since we missed them at the terrible ches-a-rena in Cheswick. Anyways, check out the song "if its the beaches"

cheers

I wish it was still summer...

..and we could play in the pool. I cant let the last post be not of Donovan.

Capitalism: A Love Story (preview), with a side of Dylan

The Dylan cover is hilarious, but he doesnt do a bad job.

I had a video up here of Michael Moore doing a Dylan ballad "The times they are a changin'"
on the Tonight show with Letterman. He did it justice, not mispronouncing one letter. Im going to go listen to this song and think of how the world can just swallow a man.....

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone.
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.
