Featured Again

I checked our Blog’s stats today, and we were featured again.  This time we were featured under The Wiggles tag.  It’s pretty cool to see your blog being featured.  Until next time, happy blogging.

Hannah’s Tooth

On Thursday Hannah lost her third tooth at school while drinking her Danimal.  I know you must be thinking how can she loose her tooth by drinking yogurt.  Well, her tooth had been loose for quite some time.  The day before it was really loose, and we tried to pull it, but it would not come out.  When Hannah lost her tooth, the school nurse gave her a little tooth shaped case to put her tooth in.  So, that night we put the tooth case in Hannah’s tooth pillow for the Tooth Fairy.  And wouldn’t you have guessed it, Hannah was visited by the Tooth Fairy that night.  The Tooth Fairy collected her tooth, and left her two dollars.  Now Hannah is one short one more baby tooth, but she is two dollars richer.  Three down and twenty-nine more to go.

Design Change

I changed the page design template.  I chose this one because I can add images to the header.  The picture I added was taken on our Sea World Trip at the Shamu Show titled Believe.  Lucky for us we were sitting far enough back that we did not get wet.

Featured Blog on WordPress.com

Looking at my stats this morning I saw that our Family Blog is the featured blog on WordPress.com, under the blogs about Shamu.  I am really excited that our Family Blog is featured.  When I started this blog, and my Tech Blog I didn’t think it would get noticed, boy was I wrong.  Thanks everyone keep reading and blogging.

Sea World Trip & Brownilympics ‘08 Slideshow – Update!

Last night I updated both of our slideshows on our website to 640×480. Originally I posted 320×240 slideshows. I was talking with my brother, and he recommended that I down size the images to 640×480, so that I can serve up a similarly sized slideshow with a bigger footprint. I took his advise, and viola, a bigger footprint slideshow without all the overhead. Hope you all enjoy the updated slideshows.

Brownilympics Pictures & Slideshow

The pictures and slideshow from the Brownilympics are now on our site at http://www.lagnor.com/.  Enjoy the photos and slideshow.

Brownilympics ‘08

Yesterday Hannah’s Brownie Troop 133 participated in their first Brownilympics. Everyone had a great time participating in all of the events. I was one of the volunteer Dad’s for the events. I worked the Obstacle Course. It was an all day event, and all the girls went home winners. I will be updating our website with the new photos. I have to go through about 550 photos, so hopefully I can set them up on our site tonight. If I can’t I will have them up by tomorrow.

Just hanging out.

Sea World ‘08 Slideshow

I have finally completed the slideshow from our trip to Sea World.  The slideshow is a little over four and a half minutes.  Enjoy.

Sea World Pictures are on our Website!!!

Last night I finally got the pictures down to 105 pictures. I have posted them on our website at http://www.lagnor.com/. I am also going to post pictures taken from Robin’s camera on our site. I was going to add a slideshow from the pictures with music from the Shamu Show, but when I uploaded the slideshow the pictures looked really fuzzy. So, I will be working on the slideshow.

Sea World Pictures

Good morning.  When I last posted on Friday evening, I said I took over 700 pictures.  Well, I have uploaded all of the Sea World pictures into iPhoto, and the official count is 785 pictures.  I am currently going through them to get them done to a more manageable size.  Last night I pretty much finished that, but I only got it down to 191 pictures.  That is still quite a bit of pictures.  I will be going through them again to see if I can get rid of some more pictures.  The reason why there are so many pictures is because of my new camera.  It is a Nikon Digital SLR, it is capable of taken successive pictures without the traditional digital camera delay.  What does that mean you ask, well for example, while we were at the Shamu Show, I was able to take multiple pictures one right after the other of Shamu jumping out of the water and diving back in.  Hopefully by the next time I post, I will have the Sea World pictures posted.
