  • Toren dancing

    Toren can dance. Okay, well, he can’t dance very well yet, but when you play music and ask him to dance, he… um… moves. I missed filming the best moves he pulled one day (moving his arms up and down), but here is a clip of him dancing to the intro music from Big Bang…

  • Another reason to like Florida

    I walked out of my building yesterday on my way to my car to go home and saw this: I walk past this almost everyday, but rarely notice it.  The sun setting on Plant Hall struck me as very beautiful.  Oh, and it was 85 degrees yesterday.  Sucks to be me, right?!?   😉

  • Toren at the zoo with the manatees

    Toren and I spent a few hours at the zoo in late October and I shot some video clips. Here are two of him in front of the manatee tank:

  • Toren and Debi rocking and reading

    Here’s a cute little video of Toren and Debi in our rocking chair reading a book together:

  • Welcome to Florida – where contract killing is legal?

    I saw this sign on my way in to work the other day: I hope it’s a joke, but it is Florida.  And that means… Well, anything goes.

  • blinking to smile

    I told Toren to smile for these photos.  What did I get?

  • neighborhood activity

    Our neighborhood has seen a little activity of late.  Unfortunately, the father of one of our good friends/neighbors, Mike Leon, passed away last week.  Mike had lived with them for most of the past year and a half or so, so we knew him.  It was sudden, even though Mike was 85.  We attended the…
