More Fun With Jo (Video)



You may be thinking, "What is wrong with Troell? Can he only post old stuff?" I certainly understand your questions, but let me explain for a moment...

Things have been crazy for me these last few months and increasingly so these past few weeks. That means I have less and less time to pull out the monster camera for photos. So, when something is going on, I try to shoot with the idea in mind that I can stretch the photos over a few posts. Does that make sense?

Right now, we are in Kansas City, KS for a little vacation. I have been using my sister's cool little point-and-shoot Canon, and believe it or not, I really like it! I would love to pick up my own point-and-shoot so that I don't have to drag out the big guns for quick photos. Alas...another place to spend money!

Anyway, back to the subject at hand. While Jo was in Buffalo with us, we took her across to the Canadian side of the border to eat at the Rainforest Café. We had a great time! The cool thing is that they have HUGE animals all over and they move like the real thing. Abbie especially liked the monkeys and the fishies. Every so often, the whole restaurant gets dark and then a thunderstorm takes over with simulated thunder, lighting and "rain". It really is alot of fun to do with kids. Abbie just about jumped out of her skin the first time the thunderstorm came through. These photos were taken with a non-professional camera, so don't be too hard on me.

Don't miss the video of Abigail being silly on the ride up to the Falls. Thank you for tuning in today.

No explanation needed for this one.

A rare photo of me with my beautiful bride. Yes, I know I look out of it, but I had to put something up!


Abbie coloring on the table, the placemat, and anything else that got in her way.

I like the Rainforest Café. The closest one to hear is in Nashville. We need to take the kids sometime. They would love it!

I just realized I spelled "hear" wrong. Yes, I know it is "here" ;o)

That looks great. I've heard it is a lot of fun! I'm glad you finally posted, but the non-prof pictures are kind of insulting to my viewing. :) j/k

Fun, fun, fun! Oh, and by the way, your non-professional pics put my poor pics to shame...Tommy is always making fun of me!

I am with Jen, your non-professional pictures are way better than my all the time shots. I enjoy your blog! Keep it up. We love to watch your family grow-up.

Thanks for including the picture of you all too.
