Hobo Kitchen

A while ago I tried to talk Craig into buying Dillon a fancy play kitchen but he wasn't into it. So I did the next best thing: I made one out of cardboard boxes. Order up!

Bringing home the groceries.

Whisking some stuff.

Nuking some stuff.

Safety first: always wear an oven mitt!

I am most proud of this drawing I made for her kitchen.

Company Picnic

Each year my company is nice enough to have a summer family event. This year we had a picnic at Shelter Island complete with yummy food, a bounce house (with Valium for the parents) and tattoos!

Flamingo tattoo...what else?

Family time!

We got tattoos too!

Measured against the rings of a giant tree.

Out for a hike.

Rain! I knew it was a real thing.

That Was Then / This Is Now (XIV)

You guys, these kids are growing up so fast. Take a look at Crosby and Dillon--friends pretty much since birth!

Still holding hands!
