Where'd the Camera Go?

Our camera has seem to have gone misplaced. For some reason, Mary didn't feel like blogging if she didn't have photos to share - HA! We do need to keep the outside world updated somehow though. Please make do with the archives and photos Mary found on the internet.

What this guy has been up to...

Fox has been watching:

He loves this show and we can't check enough DVDs out from the public library. HA!

Seems to eat...

every morning and for "snackies".

He also likes to ride...

choo-choos. How'd you every guess?

What this guy has been up to...

School. Labs. Write-ups. Lectures.

ta-da, it's MCC! Then some random photo from the internet of agar plate with colonies...microbiology stuff. It ties in with school and MCC and that other smart science-y stuff.

Waiting for this guy to come around...

slowly we're hearing from schools.

Been watching on DVD:

It's addicting and the library has the entire season!

He's been wanting to go here for a while now...

it's Five Guys! Looking at this picture, can you blame him?!

What this girl has been up to...

(besides posing with a $14o.Oo wheel of cheese?!)

Listening to:

Death Cab for Cutie. It reminds her of Seth Cohen from "The O.C.". These are quickly becoming her favorites to listen to. Maybe someday she'll live in McMansion just like Caleb Nichol when James rolls in the big bucks and Fox is playing college hoops for Duke and then becomes a Kicker in the NFL...HA!

Just finished reading:

Love Rory Gilmore. Always will be Rory to her! Also finished up the Gossip Girl series in two weeks. Maybe it will spoil the season?! Spoiler alert to anyone, Chuck Bass on the show and Chuck Bass in the book - totally NOT the same character!

And of course, she's a Cameron Crazy...

minus the whole not wearing a shirt thing. You can find her in front of the TV fighting with Fox for the remote when Duke plays.

We did this during Thanksgiving at James' mom's house in Gilbert:

Actually been meaning to put this up on the blog since November. Jason and James painted the calipers purple on the Jetta. They would have done the street red but it's over done and seen on too many other cars anyways. Besides, when was the last time you saw purple calipers?

Fox watching Jason take the tire off...

James prepping the caliper...

No after photos were taken. Maybe Mary should run out and take one. Naaah, too lazy.

Not much of an update from us but it's a post. James is a Jets fan and was so very excited they had made it to the AFC championships. Then very saddened by their defeat to the Colts. Mary is enjoying college hoops all she can before March approaches. This blog update was her lame attempt at humor - w00t. Fox talks everyday and drives his folks crazy with tantrums and tattle telling on everyone - including grandma's boyfriend's cat.

This starts up this week too that James and Mary like to watch together:

It makes us almost want to open up our own detective agency.

So this is us. nothing else to report. adios!

Times with Suit

The weather was just too good to pass up. Where else can you be where it is a pleasant seventy degrees the day after New Years?! We took advantage of it and took Fox to Desert Breeze Park in Chandler where we would what else but ride the choo-choos.

Fox LOVES the big slide.

A cool shot of the Santa Fe train Fox and James rode.

Fox and James waiting for the train ride.

Suit. We call Fox "suit" every time he wears one - which isn't that often. For those who watch a certain television show, you'll get the reference better than others.

Fox and James on Sunday. What a terrific duo.

Fox saying "cheese" in his suit on the way out the door to the car with Moose and quiet book.

This shot shows just how tall Fox is getting. We can't believe it. w-o-w.

Fox and James at a wedding two weekends ago. No shot of the happy couple though!

Fox and Mary after church. Yes, yet another wonderful seventy degree day for early January! Can we get a w00t w00t?!

We await responses from various schools. We can't believe college football is almost over. Had a few family gatherings. Almost have our bearings straight (as much as they can be) for 2010.

so this is us. nothing else to report. adios!

Santa Stops at our House!

No photos of our tree...sorry. But we do have some photos of our gift opening from Christmas Day.

Fox got Choo-Choo stuff. No surprise there, right? On the back right, you can see that Mary gave James wall art of Joe Namath during the 1968 Superbowl against the Colts. Mary chose that thank you very much for you doubters out there.

James got Mary Jacksonville Jaguars earmuffs and Fox was trying them out. Apparently, James is trying to tell Mary that Downers Grove or Erie are a very high possibility.

James got a Brett Favre Jets Jersey. James' first jersey ever. He adores his Jets.

A pleased Fox opening gifts by the heat lamp. Yes, a heat lamp in Phoenix - are we lame?!

That's about it for our Christmas Photos. Do not let it fool you - we are tripping constantly over toy cars, trains, and books.

So this is us. nothing else to report. adios.
