Obviously this video tape has a lot on it from 2003. Here we have a few excerpts from the Easter season. This one is a little bit longer as it has 3 separate events… about 9 minutes.

We are not quite sure either one of them could still do this today! 🙂

Ok, so Alex still has about 3 more years before he graduates from Trinity Christian School and moves onto college, but back in 2003 Alex graduated from St. James Preschool and here is the proof. We converted another old VHS tape…

We found this old VHS tape of Sam’s first birthday…. the whole video is about 20 minutes long, but this montage is only about 5 minutes of the better footage. 🙂

Here is what Rod’s car looked liked this morning after his 4 hour ride home yesterday in the ice storm..

Not Surprising, but the Tigers lost another not so close one today… about 30 points. The good news is that the last couple of games Alex has seen 2-3 minutes of playing time and he is getting some good marks for his defense. The team they played today had a strong zone defense and the team was having a hard time passing – but Alex got off one good pass and dribbled around someone in another instance. On a good note, we came home after the basketball game and watched KU come from behind to beat Texas. 🙂

Sam has added a few more images to his extensive collection of dino art. Sam’s preferred medium of choice is of course the colored pencil and he likes to use tracing paper to make it easier to transfer the image.

It seems one of the most consistent things this school year at TCS is that the JV team will lose their basketball games. Last week the JV Tigers scored 15 points in a 60 point loss. On the plus side, Alex did see about 6 minutes of playing time during that game. Tonight they lost again, this time by only 15 points, but Alex didn’t get any playing time. Looking back on the game we think the team tried to run the same play the entire night… obviously this doesn’t work and they probably need to learn a few more plays. We did get a picture of Alex during warm-ups before the game.

Here is one of Sam’s dino paintings from the holiday season. Sam purchased some dinosaurs at Target in Waynesboro with some of his Christmas money and this is one of his paintings he created.

Rod found this video of our first Baltimore apartment while cleaning up his Mom’s house a few months ago.  The apartment was in Little Italy (Baltimore, MD) and just a few blocks from the National Aquarium and the Inner Harbor.  The entire video is about 15 minutes long, however this clip is just the first 5 minutes of the tour.  We estimate that this was taken in 1998, so you will see some great technology as you tour the house.  WARNING: you will never get this 5 minutes of your life back.  🙂
