Do you like my hat?

That's our happy little girl with a soccer cone on her head.

Nathan's Masterpiece

This is my future Via Arte winner - Nathan Barker standing in front of his masterpiece and making good use of his favorite color - orange.

And the winner is...

This is a picture of this year's Via Arte winner and my little sister - Vikki Cruz. She and her partner, Brent, won this year's local art contest again for the second consecutive year. Can you believe they did this with chalk? Both my brother, Vincent, and sister, Jennifer (that's her in the purple), were there to help fill in some squares. While Nathan, Allison, and I proudly cheered them on and watched in amazement. Beautiful!

CAR SHOW

Papa Jerry, Grandma, Nathan, and Allison standing in front of Papa Jerry's "69" Chevy Chevelle at the local car show held over the weekend.

The following commentary was added by Nathan Barker:

"Papa Jerry and Nathan Barker - we got 'bird shirts' ."
