Recent Family Trip

My parents and I just recently went to visit the G's and Uncle. Had a good time but felt a bit under the weather without Charly and Barney there. I don't travel well without them I guess. So here are a few of my favorites.

My parents.  I just love this one of the two of them.  I don't think I've ever been able to get this good of a shot of the two of them.  They don't like there picture taken so they would never make a special trip just to get pictures done with a nice background.

My Gramps.  He's 80 and still in great shape.  I just love that they are still around.

My uncle's living room.  I like the effect here so that's why I posted it.

My uncle shingled his whole house front to back all by himself.  It took him 8 years I believe.  

My uncle...

I'm not very political but I thought this poster was different from the usual.  Of course I did the usual editing to give it this look.  So Republican's, please don't hate me because I put this up.  I just like it for what it is without meaning.

Weird random lady.  I liked her outfit so I snapped one when she wasn't looking.  I ended up liking it so here it is.

We had lots to celebrate this occasion. 

This is the famous John Lasseter's father.  For those of you who don't know he's one of the creators of Pixar and is partner's with Steve Jobs.  Toy Story was one of his first creations.  John Lasseter is my mother's cousin and I guess that makes Paul (shown above) my great uncle.  I really think Paul is a nice guy.  We throughly enjoyed his company and all the great John Lasseter stories.

My uncle prefers pictures of himself where the right side of his neck doesn't show.  Years back he encountered a life threatening illness that stripped from him a few everyday comforts.  His good looking neck was one of them.  Glad you're still here though neck and all.  

My mom recently got a new camera.  I think most of it was to find a way to connect with me.  She was great at taking pictures and showing an interest in what I do.

Grandpa at the yard sales.  He always picks something strange up and tells the owner of the item what it is and how it works.

This was Grandma's find at the yard sale.

My cute grandparents.

My mom has such long hair.  I wish I could grow mine out but it just never works that way.
