When you take kids to the zoo, you get a lot of photos of the backs of their heads...

Visiting Santa

10 Years Ago...

I bought my first and only car (a 2003 Toyota Corolla with roll-down windows...my dad convinced me it was better "in case I drove into a lake"). Today I said goodbye to it to make room for our new car!

Happy 16th Birthday, Simon!
