My Little Cutie Cowboy

12/27/2007

Caleb Cowboy, originally uploaded by JL!. We dressed Caleb up in this little western outfit (complete with boots!) and took pictures of him in my parents’ basement.

Our Christmas Letter

12/23/2007

This year we sent out our Christmas letter in e-mail. Is this a lame thing to do? You decide.

Then, Josh and I looked at each other and said, “Why?” So, as Read More

Then I saw the add for Clash of the Choirs. It’s a reality show that features Michael Bolton, among others, going back Read More

My Mom Rocks!

12/02/2007

This pic of Caleb is priceless. I love the “My Mom Rocks” shirt, which he’s wearing along with a hat that Jen Alward made for him. Actually, you may recall seeing Caleb & Josh wearing the matching hats that she made for the two of them!

My Gary Fong Lightsphere

The following are some comparison pictures to show how awesome my new Lightsphere is. I stuck Caleb in his Read More
