One more video

I know my last couple of posts have been videos but I took a lot of pictures during the week. The best way to view those pictures are in slide show form. Plus, Dillon loves watching these kinds of videos. Below is Dillon and Connor's Christmas week.

Christmas with Barbara's Bunch

This Christmas, all of my Mom's siblings were in Shafter for my Grandma's birthday party and Christmas. Below is are highlights of both events and everything that happened in between. And yes, that is a 70 year old jumping rope.

Merry Christmas

Below is our Christmas card picture. As an added bonus, I have also included the card the Cummings sent out this year.

Happy Birthday Grandma

On Sunday my Grandma Barbara celebrated her 70th birthday. The family attempted to give her a surprise party but she had it figured out before it happened. The video below was shown at her party and encapsulates her life.

Snow Day

Last Monday a big snow storm came our way. It delivered 6 inches at our house, which is the most ever since we moved in. Dillon was down in Shafter at the time, so Connor and I went out for a picture. He wasn't too sure about all the snow falling around us and did not want to play in it.

90's Nerds

If you watched TGIF during the 90's then you will enjoy the video below of Steve Urkel's top 20 moments. I am not familiar with some of the clips (Stevil?) from the last few seasons but this video conjures up some great memories.

Lakers-Warriors

I went to the Lakers-Warriors game on Saturday and two things stood out to me:

1. Phil Jackson stands around the free throw line for almost the entire length of timeouts. He draws up plays with his assistant coaches and then approaches the team only a 10-15 seconds before the horn sounds. It was in stark contrast to the Warriors coach, he talked to his team throughout the entire timeout. At any point of the timeout, you could see one or more of the Warriors zoning out, looking into the crowd or watching the Jumbotron. However, the entire Lakers team listened to all of Phil's mini 15 second speech.
2. Shannon Brown can jump out of the building. (See the 0:42 and 1:38 mark of the video below for two great dunks.) On a side note, I do have to agree with this website.
