6-Sept-2008 Lots of pics from September, click under family at the left. 4-July-2008 Had a great 4th of July. Just hanging in the neighborhood with the neighbors. Cooking out for lunch, playing, napping, then to the pool for some fun. Finally, another cookout dinner, and mega fireworks. Hailey stayed up till 9:30 or so to watch a few, then got tired and went to bed. Nathan stayed up past 11 to watch the whole thing...and loved it. Click July08 to the left under family. 22-March-2008 Added the 9th progress installment in the VeeDub project. Also, started getting caught up on Family uploads. Made February08 and started March08. 3-June-2007 Well, I've done a little updating that wasn't blogged...mostly because it was related to my Volkswagen project. But alas, I'm starting to get Hailey's pictures up. Have a peak. 17-Dec-2006 Updated some funny Nathan sayings. 28-Nov-2006 Had a great time in Alabama for Thanksgiving. The whole Newton gang gathered for the event plus some. I think there were about 44 of us staying with Uncle Bill and Aunt Sarah. Head to Nathan's Pics - and click on Thanksgiving-06 31-Oct-2006 HALLOWEEN - Nathan loves candy in a major way. 30-Oct-2006 Took the family to Portrait Innovations for a studio photoshoot. Good stuff. Head to Nate's site and click on Portrait Innovations. 30-Sept-2006 Laura had a girls weekend in Atlanta, so Nathan and I did the bachelor thing this weekend. Went to the grand opening of Herdklotz park in Greenville. Very nice playground. Head to Nathan's pics and select Sept-06 24-Aug-2006 Well, we had a great vacation with the Smittys and the Sextons at Blue Mountain Beach Florida. I posted the link on Nathan's area (Beach 06). Have a gander. 23-July-2006 I have a LOT of stuff to update. Overwhelmed again. But for fun, I put up some pictures from a photoshoot my neighbor and I did with his E46 M3 and the EVO. Head to my side for the pics. 15-May-2006 Started a "Nathan Sayings" section on his site. Laura has written down a lot of stuff that he has said. Some pretty funny stuff. We'll be updating this one regularly. 19-Apr-2006 Got my Canon Speedlight 430EX today. Works incredible with the 20D. So I renewed my photography bug. I started a macro section since this is one of my favorite aspects of photography. I haven't done much, but it will grow. 18-Apr-2006 Nathan's Easter weekend photos are up... 10-Apr-2006 Nathan got a nice 12" bicycle for Christmas. He loved it at first, but didn't know how to pedal...since then, he's let it sit while he Fred Flintstone's his big wheel. I came home from work last week, and the little booger was pedaling like a champ on his bike. He loves it now - constantly saying, "I want to ride de bike." Here's some of his ride from yesterday. Head to his video section and check him out. 4-Apr-2006 Ok, so I've been lame. But I just got turned off with the stack of un-scanned photos, the cost of film and developing, and the time to photoshop each one. So finally, we decided to get smart. Bought a Canon 20D digital SLR which is great. Took it out for a whirl today with Nathan, Laura, Jen, and Emma (at Southside Park). Head to Nathan's page for a look. (I'm BACK BABY!) 22-Dec-2005 We took Nathan to see Santa and ride the park choo-choo train. We told Nathan he'd have to tell Santa what he wanted for Christmas...well, I guess he understood - cause he wasn't shy about telling Santa that he wanted a Tractor. See it in his video page. 22-Nov-2005 Added a Photoshop section to my area. I've been having fun photoshopping cars in contests...stop by and have a look. 8-Nov-2005 Added an audio section to Nathan's area. He and Laura started singing ABCs before bedtime...and I got it on film (and transferred it to MP3). 18-Oct-2005 Skipping ahead a few months...August and October. August contains a ton of photos from our beach vacation. October has Nate visiting the grandparents and Nathan's trip to the airport. He loves going, and Boppie loves taking him. Head to Nathan's Pictures page. 11-Sept-2005 Might get around to adding some *new* pics this weekend. Still have hours of video to produce...but ran across one that I made in March and forgot to upload it. Head over to Nathan's video site and check out Boogie Time! (This one's for you Matt). 03-Aug-2005 Still so far behind, but I'm working on it tonight - in the meantime, I bought a new(er) car. 2003 Mitsubishi Evolution VIII with Dave Buschur stage III kit. 400+ crank HP, AWD lovelyness. Head over to my side for photos. Ok. I spoke too soon, I've got Nathan's December pics up and steaming forward. Ok, I lied. I've updated all the way through May of 2005...WOOT! 07-June-2005 Shew - how far behind I am. Last week, I scanned over 100 photos. Then each one needs a touch up here, some cropping there in photoshop. Arrrg...will this ever get up-to-date? The answer is yes. Starting now. I've completed November pics for Nathan...December is soon to follow...as well as some videos. So head on over to Nate's page. 20-Mar-2005 We had an "adults" vacation this past weekend with the Michenfelders and Dombrowskis. Headed to Orlando for our pal Javier's wedding. There will be pictures scanned when I get time - but I HAD to edit / upload a video of Jeffie...eating his banana.

But I needed to at least get the October pictures that are already on the PC out on the site. Nathan has a new Picture of the Month (August) - I still need to do September. See what I mean. But the big news is Nathan's teeth are finally popping through and he has taken his first steps. More to come as I un-lazy myself. 10-Oct-2004 Feeling like we have been neglecting the cats, we pulled out the old laser pointer for Boyd and Abby. Boyd hadn't forgot about this jewel.

I'm sure Nathan and Charlie will be as close as Dan and I are. In HONOR of Charlie's birth, I made a little flash loop. Check out "ICY HOT SEXTON" in the New Section at the right! 14-Aug-2004 FINALLY - got the new PC stable, smooth, and FAST.
