Matt the photographer



Here are some photos Matt took. Can you believe 4 posts on the same day? And I thought this blogging would only be an outlet for my take on the world of music. Little did I know.

More snow fun










Another fun day at the football field with a different cast of characters!

Matt and the snowman

We had Josh and Matt over Friday night to endure a little winter camping out in the back yard (an activity they enjoy all year round). Hey, I've accumulated some decent winter camping gear from my years as a Scoutmaster, so why not put it to good use! The funniest thing happened right after they arrived. Di and Wilky had made a rather largish snowman in the back yard. Matt thought it would be a great idea to climb it. He made it to the top and was sitting on the snow man's head when he realized one of the maxims of climbing, it's always easier to go up than to come down. It took him quite a while spinning around on the snow man's head before he found a toe hold to let himself down. Unfortunately I didn't get to my camera quickly enough to capture it so you'll have to let your imagination run. Here's a shot of the snow man. The "arm" lying on the ground is thanks to Matt. Most of the other embelishments had already fallen to the ground due to the thaw since the snow man was built.

Happy New Year!

Here are some shots from New Year's Eve at the Carters. I pooped out early knowing that I'd be taking Mary Ann and kids to the airport in the morning but I understand the partay went on without me.

A Very Carter Christmas

There were a few interlopers at the normally ultra private "Carter Christmas Kick-Off"!


































































































Christmas Morning was a package opening mayhem.












































Let the games begin!
