Looking Good Lancaster

We just got back from the 2008 Looking Good Lancaster work day. Last year, we picked up trash and put down bark around newly planted bushes. This year, we went to a neighborhood and painted street numbers on the curbs.

Spring Picture - New Head Shots

On Saturday, we went down to LA to get new headshots (Head Shots?) for Jacob. As long as we were down at the studio, we had some taken of Jennie as well.

Jacob Richard White 4/19/08

Jennie Linnea White 4/19/08

Now for the real pictures - this is who are kids really are!

I took about 20 shots to get Jacob to give up a 'real' smile!

Sure, its cheesey, but hey, so is Jennie!

Belt Testing

We just got back for Jacob and Jennie's belt testing. Jennie tested for her red belt and Jacob tested for his recommended decided black belt ( his last 'color' belt before his black belt).

The blondie and the zen master...

Jacob goes in for the head shot

Jennie goes for the leg

Jacob gets through the board!

Jennie gets her kick in as well!

Both kids did a great job, and Ann and I are very proud. (So was Uncle Christo - he watched the testing as well!)

Day at the Park

Just a little fun in the sun...

More Camera Fun

Testing the new camera

I bought a new camera for the family to use. It's called The Flip. All it does is shoot video - no pictures, no fancy settings, just point and press 1 button to start recording and one button to stop. then you just pug the camera into the USB port on the computer, hit one button and voila' instant video on the web!

Here's is a test of what it looks like.
