Dylan’s New Bedroom

“Dylan’s newly remodeled bedroom with the ‘Paw Patrol’ theme” – Arlington, VA.

This year as a birthday present for Dylan’s sixth birthday, I decided to remodel the spare bedroom, which is slightly larger than Dylan’s current room, and move him in there. I also changed it up a little to give it more of a school age look rather than the preschool look it had before. There was also a theme change as Dylan decided that he had out grown the ‘Cars’ Lighting McQueen bed and was now into the ‘Paw Patrol’ thing! The project did require the purchase of a new mattress, but it was so worth it. My little boy is growing up so fast!

Dylan’s 6th Birthday!

“Dylan and friends running the obstacle course at Dynamic Gymnastics” – Arlington, VA.

Here are the pictures from our son’s 6th birthday party, held this year at Dynamic Gymnastics in Arlington. This years theme, which just happens to be his new favorite Sunday morning cartoon series, was ‘Paw Patrol’! We had a great turn out of kids this year. There were several of his friends from the neighborhood and almost his entire kindergarten class also showed up to help celebrate. It was truly a good day for all… Happy Birthday Dylan!!

The Blizzard Of 2016

“A view of our totally snowed-in street” – #blizzardof2016 – Arlington, VA.

As most everyone in the United States knows, the East Coast got hit with a huge snow storm this past weekend and it left the Washington, DC metro area with some crippling snow fall totals. At our place in Arlington, we measured a total snow fall accumulation of between 22 and 24 inches (depending on where you stuck the yard stick.) The snow started falling on Friday and didn’t stop falling until Sunday, but it wasn’t until Wednesday afternoon that we could actually get off our street. Here are some pictures from the event.

Ballston Tropics vs. Maple Leafs – Full Game Video

KCIHL Ballston Tropics vs. Maple Leafs – 01/15/2015 – Arlington, VA

One of the players on the KCIHL Maple Leafs was nice enough to post and share the entire game footage from our Lower C League hockey game at Kettler Capitals Iceplex in Arlington, VA. This was a normal Friday night KCIHL Adult League game between my team, the Ballston Tropics and the Fairfax Maple Leafs. What’s neat about this video is that two Go-Pro cameras where used to film it, one behind each goal, and then the video was spliced and edited to show the action at both ends of the ice… real time! Nice job guys!!

BTW… the video should start in the second period @31:15 where you will see the sweet back-hand goal I had to give us the lead. If you want to watch the entire game, just scroll back to the beginning of the video. Another good game and great team win! Go Tropics!!

@OceanImagery – I had a sweet second period back-hander last Frida…

The Best Of Dylan – 2015

“Dylan enjoying the warmth of the afternoon sunshine at the pool” – Tucker’s Point, Bermuda

Here is  collection of pictures my wife and I have taken over the past year of our precious son Dylan. We post these mainly for our family and friends who can’t always be around to visit with us on a regular schedule. My mother says it’s nice to be able to just click on my site and see her grand son when ever she wants. It’s almost like being here… and as you can tell, Dylan has done some growing this past year. We all had a great year and look forward to another fantastic one in 2016!

Dylan’s Swim Lessons

Dylan ready and eager for his swim lesson to begin! – Arlington, VA.

We have been taking Dylan to swimming lessons at our local pool now for several years and it is really starting to pay off! He has so much more confidence when he is in the water and can now swim the entire length of the kids pool without touching the bottom. For parents who are avid and active scuba divers, this is a huge relief to know that he will one day want to join us under the ocean. He is now working on his free stroke and learning the back stroke.

Halloween 2015!

Julie and Dylan in their matching ‘Sully’ costumes! – Arlington, VA.

Here is my collection of pictures from this years Halloween festivities. We started off the fun with the annual RS Halloween costume parade and classroom parties at Dylan’s school. Than Dylan decided to change costumes for the neighborhood evening trick-or-treating. I was even persuaded to join in the fun with one of Mikes favorite costumes… Scooby Doo!! The whole family had a ton of fun and my parents always enjoy spending time with Dylan and seeing all the neighborhood kids and their cute costumes.
