Thanks for the comments.  The answer to your question is, yes.  I didn't like from friend's sister anymore than a friend after coresponding and meeting her, so I let her know that and things were fine.........I thought.  In the end, I had my sister mad at me too.  Just better to leave sister's friends alone.

HA! Those are hilarious. That'd be too fun.

"the kids were fun to shoot" Only in photography can you get away with such statements!

Those are too much fun!  I bet it was a night full of laughter during that photo shoot!  Glad you had a good time with the company. 

Those are such fun shots...your oldest son looks so much like you...

That's absolutely hilarious! The pictures are great! Looks like you all have had a blast! Hope you have a great end-of-the-week!

Ahhh... Joel has military garb on in that one picture.  Hehehe, I say "Joel" as if we grew up in Compton together or something and we're tight.  (That's one son of yours I've never met.  Hehehe, out of the two of them.)  Anyhow, these pictures are really fun.  Boys are funny.  Nice editting skills.  And now I'm going to sign off with the following which was actually going to be all that I was going to write, but I didn't actually mean it to mean anything, I just thought it'd be funny and random, but then I thought people would be confused.  But I don't want you to be confused, so now I've told you not to be confused, so don't even think about it very hard.  Sheesh, now it won't even be a hint funny.  Seriously, it won't.  Not like it was.  Okay, I'll stop.  I like typing fast, though.  Woot to the secretarial skills I'll probably never get to employ.  Anyhow, originally I was just going to write:

What kind of propaganda is this?

That's the best kind of propaganda.  :D

That's awesome! I guess I didn't realize all of you were related before now. interesting!

:) you must spend a lot of time on your computer

well, my first inclination that you're on the computer alot is that you're over 45 and have a xanga....my second inclination was because those pictures were all photoshopped and whatnot :)

so Matt Birnie is your nephew mr superpeanut tell me about him i'm listening

You're very welcome. Sorry you're having physical problems. What sort of tests are you having?

Those pictures are hilarious, by the way. Matt cracks me up.

I really liked the story of how you met your wife...very, very nice!! How long have you kids been married? I think it would be so incredibly cute if you remembered the date that you kissed her in the band room & sent her flowers...and when she asks you why you sent them you can remind her of the blessed day when you stole that first kiss. Awww...now wouldn't that be precious?? Ok, I am officially a girl!! Oh, & I know this is a bit late but thank you for subscribing to my blog. It's nice reading the thoughts of other Christians...and looking at pictures of their kids & goofy nephew!!  

I do read this site.

Hey, thanks for reading, Jim!

So I think the tagline for the second picture should read, "Was this the face that launched a thousand ships...?"

Well, I guess I couldn't say for certain if I'm nicer than Bill...but I could definitely propose to do nicer things with his money!

Hmm...Kevin thinks he can take me as his mistress but I'll have you & everyone else know that it is not EVER going to happen.

TGIF and nice weekend !

It's a small world after all. You know, it's fun seeing how our circles of

influence intersect one another! And isn't it good to see your Godly heritage

lived out right before your eyes? I know that must be pleasing to you as a

father, and imagine it's also true of our heavenly Father. God Bless

The testosterone must have been flowing the night these pics were done....oh, my....

Cool collage!
RYC: Thanks!

ryc: i understand completely...half the reason i thought those were so funny was cause of how many i fit myself or how many fit my friends and family i think i could put a name to ever single one of those...that just makes them all the more hilarious! glad you enjoyed!

Wow. How did I not know this whole time that you're Matt's uncle??? I knew you knew each other, but didn't know you're related.

And thanks for your comment on my slideshow!
