Lawler's Diptych Action

My buddy Greg Lawler over at Zinkwazi.com, is one smart fella. He invented a Photoshop "action" for making a photo Diptych as easy as pie. While I have no idea how he did such a thing, it was fun to use! Here's my first dip into his Diptych action...

Drum Movie

As promised...enjoy!

Little Drummer

So, I added an electronic drum kit to Good Times Studio! I've been wanting to have a set to bang on for a long time but have waited for a good ebay deal to come around. Getting the chance to play whenever I feel inclined is great fun. What I didn't expect was Aaron's absolute obsession with playing 'em! He wants to groove every single chance he gets! I know what's gonna happen...he's gonna be drumming circles around his old man by age 6!

Look at that form!


Yesterday, I had an impromptu lesson with groove master, Dave Granada! He was stoked on the sound of my fakey Roland drums. ;)

Coming soon...a video of Aaron on the kit!

Aaron is Two!

My little buddy Aaron turned two this weekend. He had a "Bob the Builder Gymnastics" party. (Obviously Bob still needs to get his heart rate up too, right?!) It was fun to see Aaron smile and have so much fun. Here's a few pictures from his party...you can see a bunch more on my FACEBOOK.

Cute Aaron with disturbing expression on Dad in background...

Tully's Birthday

Tully had a pirate party at Padaro to celebrate his fourth birthday.



I put a ton of cute kid pix from the party HERE on Facebook.

BBQ Fun

Elmo had a 50th anniversary last Friday night. It was crazy fun...Dixieland band, cotton candy, popcorn, games, singing, inspiring speeches. It was like a potluck of good times!

Thanks to Karen & Matt Yonally for sending us a couple good pix from the evening.






Here's a great pic from Peter Trabucco...

My Buddy Matt Steele

Matt left us two years ago. I remember so many good times together. One day we will hang out again...
