The Waldron Family

The Grand Unveiling. and for some reason we are back in blue with underlining. I guess that is because i started typing at the top of the blog. let's switch to the next little section below my no longer lovely knee. Yep, that was it. Here is the grand unveiling. that yellow stuff is steritape. i guess it keeps it from becoming unsteril and untaped. did i mention it's yellow. That's cotton batting on my leg. i don't have grey leg hair. it's the same stuff that they use on those cheesy decorating shows where they say they are going to make them a new couch then just staple some of this stuff to a hunk of plywood. ooo, real comfy. could i have more scars? the round one on my knee cap is from when i tried to knee slide out of a wipe out on a concrete bank. the nice long one next to the 6 staples is from when i wiped out on my bike a few years back. had like 5 stitches for that one. they wanted it to drain. eeeeuw. this time i had a total of 15 staple...

Hey, that looks like operation scrubs. Why is Rusty going under the knife? And who knew he had such sexy knees? Pretty shocking contrast to the pictures from Stowe taken in February, eh? this is where the surgeon and i signed my knee to make sure we were all on the same page as far as which knee we were cutting open. But wait narrarator, why are you cutting open your knee in the first place, let alone the one that you and your surgeon signed? well grasshopper, it's a long story. It probably starts years ago in a galaxy far far away, known to many as Rusty and Doug's backyard quarterpipe in Buffalo. Dumbass here was skating with his yo-yo and paying more attention to the yo-yo than the fact that his foot was slipping off the back of his board. so my back foot stayed on the top of the ramp while my front foot(still on the skateboard) and the skateboard (with my front foot still on it) decided to head to the bottom of the quarterpipe, precipitating a most uncomfortable...

Psych!!! no legs in this one except for the legs of the Seneca Wildcats!!!!!!! This was the Rockville competition. We got second out of 5 teams. Pretty groovy girls! Here's the girl doing various cheery things. She has been promoted/demoted (depends on if they drop you) to a flier. She wasn't too hip about it at first as they kept dropping her, but she hasn't gotten dropped lately, so things are cool. Can she stop growing up now? please!!!!!

Hey, Look, She's back on her feet. and i cropped it so that you don't know that it's the mattress that i haven't moved downstairs because there is still too much stuff in the old computer room to turn it into the new guest room. Ha. Technology rules. isn't she hot? Now i'm watching the E! true hollywood story about Corey Feldman. Technology rules. Truly.

Here's the last few pictures of the Waldrons Cutting the Rug at The Johnstone Wedding. Lots of shifting in that last sentence. Although you will notice that Rusty is standing on his own two feet. Why is that pertinent? wait till the next post. Kim isn't actually laying down here. she is standing in front of the mattress that i dragged out of the old guest room which is now, or soon to be, the babies room. It's in our bedroom rather than downstairs in the old computer room which is soon to be the new guest room. why isn't it down there? because we still need to disassemble shelving units and computer tables so that we can make room for beds and such. why haven't I done any of that stuff yet, wait until the next post. It's called foreshadowing people. I'm watching Star Trek the next generation as i type this. there is a guy on it who looks like a hamster. He's flying a ship though. That's one educated hamster guy.

yeah, yeah, yeah, boyeeeee. I don't know where that came from. here are more S+K pictures. the pretty side of the group. no one really wants to see the guys. bunch a fools in suits. it's a wedding . everyone knows it's all about the woman and how she looks. here's the girls. look, it's the first dance of the Johnstones. it's kinda like we're on national geographic. (narrarator's voice over) "Here we have the elusive first dance of the Johnstones. See how they glide effortlessly across the dance floor. Our camera man had to disguise himself by wearing a jacket and tie to sneak close enough to capture this seldom seen ritual." Then we have the Best Couple, The Ding-a-ling Man and Sophia. lovely, just lovely. and lastly, speaking of lovely, it's Keisha's legs!!!!Wooo Hooooo!!!! Go higher Steve! Teeth, teeth, teeth!!!!! Sorry, i got a bit carried away there. who is that little person in the bottom right corner?

A little rehersal dinner buffet with Austyn, DJ, and Princess. Love those rolls. And now on to the main event. Keisha and Steve, Steve and Keisha, it doesn't matter which name comes first any more, now they are one. wow, that was queer. Keisha was a cheerleader. Steve is a boxer. Can you tell which is which? Very sweet cake topper. Very sweet cake. So, the title of the post leads one to think that the Johnstones are the focus of this blog, but no, it's really about the Waldron fambily. Austyn was a junior bridesmaid with Keisha's niece Princess. here's proud Daddy with his beautiful girl. Kim looks a little shellshocked, but here is the handsome Waldron crew. Yes, Kim is pregnant. if you didn't know , then now you do. and learning is half the battle. Yo Joe! Ok, so it is a little bit about the Johnstones. Johnstones, Meet the Johnstones, they're the modern Jamaican/American family....Johnstones, Meet the Johnstones, they live in Frederick, Maryland...

It was march when i started working on the baby's room. What the heck happened to February? you'll see in the next few posts. One of the many things we did was attend Austyn's cheerleading competitions. The Seneca Wildcats are getting better and better each competition. I don't have any great pictures of the whole team competing, just video, which i don't know how to put on here. Here is our little cheerleader all curly and cute. Kim loves putting it up in rollers.

Hey look, it's my fat bald head! We all needed to see more of that. So we decided to go with a nice two tone with a swoosh . Our theme is sea turtles, so the green is the sky and then i am going to do the lower half blue for the ocean. "But the sky isn't green!" you so rightly cry. oh well. there are many possible reasons that we made the sky green. global warming. polution. refraction of the sun off of the ocean at a wierd angle. it matches the bedding. guess which is the real answer? winner gets a smiley face sticker.

man, i hate this thing. i don't have the faintest idea why it's underlined and blue, but there you go. so here we go with getting the baby's room ready. the paint in this house has never been changed since 75 or 79, whenever the heap was built. I don't know how they lived all that time with these beige walls and ceilings. anywhoo, here is me painting the ceiling a nice clean white. i started this in february, or maybe it was march. i can't remember. much has occurred since i started painting. Look, she has a belly and the text is not underlining any more. whatever. I was going to put the picture where she actually showed me her belly, but she would probably divorce me or cut off important bits. She looks so beautiful. I won't go into how she thinks she looks. suffice it to say she doesn't believe me. she says i'm biased. i just say it like i see it.

Ok, so it's been a while since i have posted anything. I'm trying to update in chronological order. For those who have not met the H-Bomb, here he is in all his glory. I think this is from Joy's birthday party back in February. Why do we always have that chocolate cake? I'm trying to figure out how to actually put text next to or on top of the actual picture that it goes with, but i can't figure it out half the time. we'll see how it goes. This should be my gorgeous wife and mother of my child holding onto the latest addition to the Fry Clan, Lilly. Doesn't she look tired already? She's getting ready for the whole sleep depravation part of pregnancy.

Rock On My Friends! this is kinda a throw away blog. go to Doug's blog SalvageYardRanch. I don't know how to add a link like he did. he's so cool. he has a Mac.

Hey Folks! We had a nice little snow storm this past valentines day. It started out as snow then turned to Sleet and Ice. Austyn, Kim and I all got to stay home the last two days. Austyn and I ventured out to go sledding today. the temps were in the low 10's last night and everything froze solid. So basically we were sliding on a 4 inch thick layer of frozen snow. interesting until we slid out of control into the playground equipment. not fun. we decided that the smaller hill was more fun without the sled and did some belly and butt sliding. What a cute little girl. Will Bryce be able to live up to the cuteness standard set by his older sister? We'll see. this is the result of rain at 2AM in 20 degree weather. Some chick actually got killed when a tree limb fell on her. bummer.

So, Here we have the Bruce Trail. Pretty darn sweet if you were to ask me. It's the first trail actually cut for skiing in Vermont, way back in the CCC days. Early 1900's that is. We left the ski area boundary and set off into the backcountry armed only with Pete and the knowledge that a second car was left a few miles away to ferry us back to the parking lot at stowe. We obviously weren't the first ones through that day, but the moguls were pretty much still freshies in disguise and we were able to muscle through without too much trouble. too bad Claude had to hip check that stump. I would love to go back in the spring or summer and retrace our tracks back up the mountain. Some day. Thanks Pete. Here's you taking a picture of me taking a picture of you.

I guess I should put the pictures on first and then stick the text inbetween them like i am doing now. so, here are the pics of me. damn, i'm one sexy man. So I guess that you should read this whole thing backwards almost. next time I will put pics up first and then add stuff in later. like i am doing again now. bye. Stowe Vermont Baby!!! 4-6 inches of fresh with first tracks off the 4-runner and Gondola. but first it was a visit to Tim Snow in Albany.... Did Tim give us snow on Friday night so that we could have freshies on Saturday AM? Could be, but whatever it was, Tim, J.C., Pete, Daniel and I weren't complaining, that's for damn sure. There's a nice little group powder shot. that's Me leaning into a turn. Claude, Tim and Daniel are there as well as some random skiier chick. don't we make her look pathetic? this Blogger thing is still messed up as far as layouts go, I keep trying to set it up as far as text and pictures go, but i keep putting them in w...
