You have to check this guy out. He does a bunch of other little cartoons you can find on you tube easily...all funny! Not so good for kids. And while you're at it, here's another one with an interview of him at some film short festival.

diarama drama...

Emmett is studying the habitat of the anteater.
Thanks to glitter glue, pipe cleaners, and toilet paper rolls.
And of course, the worlds best kindergarten teacher,
Miss Morgan!!
and its for school of coures. (adds Emmett)

b-ball with pop...

I just love watching these two play outside. Mac, Silas and I hung out upstairs reading Harry Potter #6...again (!) listening to papa and Emmett throw the ball around. They are both so happy doing this...

happy birthday nana!!!

Mac and Emmett painted pictures for Nana! They painted them on wood for
her garden. It was a great Earth Day B-Day!

When the rain comes

While all you people are sitting in your comfy armchairs, drinking hot chocolate and reading cozy books, think of me on some foggy mountain side. On this glorious SoCal day it took me two hours to get down "Batman's Ridge". The water in my boots made it worthwhile...

Basketball

Congratulations to Emmett and Benjamin! Both of these fine young athletes recorded their first baskets in a game today. I think that I was more excited than Emmett, but that is a Pop's prerogative. Emmett told me he is going to be in the NBA one day. I told him that he played a good game.

Matt

peace...

...just wish there was more of it.

I got my teeth pulled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, first we (Nana, Mama, Silas,and I) dropped off Emmett at kindergarden. Then we went home and watched Sponge-Bob Square-Pants. We got in to the car and drove into the dentist place. I got in the chair and they put a mask on my nose it was supposed to make me calm. Then they started talking about the usual like "How is school?" and "do you have any siblings?" They took my blood pressure and stuck little pads on me to see my heart beat. After that they gave me a tooth to squeeze. It was a stuffed tooth and they gave me an..............................................

I-V!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cold crept up my arm and when it was at my shoulder I closed my eyes. Then when the medicine got to my heart I fell asleep. When I woke up I was in a bed facing this chinese woman. She looked like a vampire because she was pale and she had two things sticking out of her mouth to suck up the blood because she had teeth pulled too. Those looked like fangs. I took the things outta' my mouth to say hello when a nurse told me to put 'um back in. I sat up in bed and a nurse pushed me back down. Then my mom took me outta the stupid place.

And that is my story.Thank you

And here is silas getting some pear juice straight from the pear.

The animals and the open spaces were the highlights for the kids...
