Get Well Keira!

James wanted to send good wishes towards Keira as she recovers from surgery. We hope you are back to your normal dancing self really soon!

Birthday Photo Shoot - In process

I am working on James' birthday party invites, and have attempted to get some photos. Someone does not want to stand in front of the camera. He only wants to see the "James photos" on the camera screen. Will keep working with the model, but this gives you a preview of what his birthday theme will be (if there was any question).

Animal Kingdom

We spent one whole day at Animal Kingdom. It was so much fun, much better than your typical zoo. I am not great at the details, but here are some best of images.

We started out in Africa on a Safari - Which we did twice it was that much fun.

I did not follow these tips, so much of my animal shots are not the greatest. Will spend more time to see if I can find some good ones.

Nick and James, not looking at the same thing.

Proof I was on the trip. Ahem Nick, that was directed at you.

Getting a better view.

Nick Dancing. Still cannot believe he did it, so I tried to keep the photos to a minimum.
The Tree of Life. Proof that Gigi was with us. That one was directed at me. James loved getting to spend time with Gigi, and I think is very confused that this is all her house.

Another cute one of the McCullough Boys.
Forced this photo to be taken. Glad I did, love it.

Not out of order, did the Safari again!

After Animal Kingdom, dinner with all the ladies. This is where we lost the Hockey stick and had to make a emergency stop to buy another one. We still had 2.5 more days of vacation, needed to have that hockey stick.

Disney Random Order - Last day

For some reason I am going to do this backwards given I started with the beach day first. I will try to keep the days at least in order. I do want to thank our wonderful hosts, Gigi, Tina, Megan and Molly. We had a wonderful vacation and memories that we will have forever.

He we are at The Studios. Did not take very many photos while here, but James had a wonderful time.

The plaque at Nick's Grandpa's Tree.

James waiting for the Toy Story ride.

James on Dad before we went to the parade. One of my favorites.

Family shot with Cars. Have not watched the movie yet, will need to add to James' list.

James before going on the toy story Ride.


Here are some general photos from EPCOT:
Outside Finding Nemo. We skipped the ride, but james got to go see all the fish, sharks and other creatures.

Donald Duck was the only Disney Character we got our photo with, however he made a lasting impression. We still call out Donald Duck at random times.


For Epcot, here are the photos of James from around the world. We attempted to get James in all nations, however with sleepy James and the dark evening, not all turned out. However you get to see what a good trooper James was the whole day.

Stop #1 - England. Not sure what the thinks of the ears and all the photos, but still in a good mood.

#2 Canada: Still happy in the stroller, just need a minor distraction.

#3: Mexico: Lets get out of the stroller, and it is getting late.

#4: China - Best photo. You will need to take my word for it.

#5: Germany: Sitting promos help!

#6: Italy. The fountain was just too interesting to look at the camera. (Actually that was a recurring theme.)
#7: Japan: Back to the stroller, getting tired. First one looking at the camera.

#10: Ok we skipped a few here, but I think this was Morocco.

#11: France. And this is how we ended the evening. Another day where we broke the baby.

Broken baby up close.

James at the Beach - Florida Feb 2011

Here are the photos of James at the beach that we took in Clearwater. The first photo is the end of the day photo. You can see someone loved the beach and water. We had such a wonderful visit with Gigi and the girls. Working on some Disney photos next.
