Not To Be Outdone

Not To Be Outdone…

Steven decided to showcase his lyrical talent by writing a rap. I asked him to record his rap, which he gladly did, only after I agreed to pay him $10. I don’t know what’s funnier, the fact that I had to pay my own son to do something, or the fact that I would have paid him $50 to do it, but he accepted my $10 offer…

Can you say, Camera Shy?

Trying to be creative and spontaneous, (not to mention lazy and cheap), I decided to make my own card for Valentine’s Day to give to Christy. I wanted to find a bunch of pictures of just the two of us and create a collage to put on the cover. Well, that is easier said than done. It turns out that of the more than 25,000 digital pictures of our family on our computer I could only find 12 pictures that was just the two of us. That’s it… twelve. That’s pretty sad, if you ask me. So my lofty plan of a grandious collage turned out to be fairly weak. Here is the result:

 Shamir and Christy Collage

So here is my plea… I know I’m not the most cooperative person when it comes to taking pictures of me, but I would appreciate it if any family or friends have a chance to capture a shot of me and Christy together, go for it. Also, please e-mail it to me at shamir@merinospace.com.

Thanks!!!
