Shinns in the news

Hey, Friends,

I’d like to turn the spotlight toward my Dad, Larry Shinn, who’s recently been featured in the Tracy Press (from Tracy, CA) for his volunteer work with kids and airplanes.  The top two photos in this news story feature either him or his plane, N2426D (nicknamed Delta by Liam).  Leave a comment on this post to let him know how proud you are of him!

Congrats, Dad,

Andrew

By popular demand – Liam photos

We were taking pictures of some friends’ kids and Liam was hanging around behind the studio with his cool Nalgene water bottle. Enjoy!

Papa and Mitzi’s 60th Wedding Anniversary

Here are some photos from the anniversary party. Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa, for your example of a loving marriage! We’re all blessed by your devotion to each other.

Liam uses both a PC and a Mac – in the same day

This morning, while using the PC, he showed a consistent ability to type the letters in his name – in the right order. By the afternoon, he was editing spreadsheets and conducting his banking online. I have no idea where he got the money in his bank account, but I know he’s managing it! I have video proof.



Liam’s Big Boy Bed

Liam got a new big boy bed from Auntie Lois. He has done pretty well for the two nights he’s been sleeping in it. The first night, it had the mattress from Auntie Lois and I wanted to put his, more sturdy, mattress on it instead. He cried and cried when we took the Auntie Lois mattress out and put his in, so we made the switch. I proceeded to put a mattress pad and sheet on the A.L. mattress and still he cried. I think we went to read and get his mind off of the mattress situation and came back a little later. He fell asleep on his “new” A.L. mattress and I have yet to switch it out for his crib mattress. Let’s all hope he doesn’t notice! He’s growing up so fast!
