Claire made a magazine worthy Apple/Pear Pie for Thanksgiving. I bought the pie plate and crust cutters from Williams Sonoma.

New CDs

Sorry for the lack of updates lately. I’ve been pretty busy with my day job and work at church. I’ve been painting my foyer recently. It was a descent sized task with 20 ft ceiling.
On my way home this evening I made a couple stops and one happend to be the Family Christian Book store. [...]

I’m home today after what I call an “unpleasant adventure” at the dentist yesterday. I snapped this of Ruby (my cat) on back yard surveillance and Bailey chilling in the chair.

Wedding Entrance

I want to shoot a wedding like this.

My little cousin just got married in June. I finally got around to looking at the pics and putting them on flickr. It was a good wedding and we wish them [...]

Recent Bottles – June 2009

Had a few good bottles of wine recently.

Muscat Canelli – Chateau Ste. Michelle (Columbia Valley)
2007 Vintage
This was  a good sweeter dessert wine. I picked this up when we were on the Washington 2008 Trip.

Gamy Rouge – V. Sattui Winery (Napa Valley)
2006
Even though this is the only Gamy Rouge I’ve had, I thought it was pretty [...]

The Smitty’s got a new car, an ‘09 Traverse. It’s pretty slick. It’s unfortunate that bsmith isn’t going to be the primary driver of the new ride.

New Website Launched

I don’t blog a lot about work, but we just launched a new website where I did a lot of programming and theme customization within Wordpress. The site houses our Professional Development offerings at our district for the year.

Dog pool

Chloe is more of a swimmer, Bailey thinks the pool is a big water bowl.

Dog Accesseries

I’m not really into accererizing my dog like some people, but we did just get a new backpack and leash for Bailey. They are made by ruffware, and they are by far higher quality than the average dog pack and leash. We had a cheap back back for the Bailey, but it didn’t fit well [...]

This guy is pretty creative.
