This photo is off the men and women who were
awarded the Silver Snoopy Award and the astronauts
who presented them.


We got to go on stage with Justin when he was presented
his award. The director of JSC asked me if he could
hold Torin. I warned him that I was not responsible
if he spit up on his nice suit.


Justin was nominated for this award by one of his co-workers.
Only 1% of all Nasa and contract employees are honored with
this award each year. You are only allowed to receive
one Silver Snoopy Award in your lifetime. If you are interested
in finding out more info on this award, look it up on Wikipedia.

Pictures of the Boys


I guess the lion cub had an itch that needed scratching.


Torin and his cousin Gavin was playing their
first game of soccer. I'm sure Torin would
have won the game.


Stopping long enough to give Mommy a quizzical
look before getting back to more important things, playing.


I know you can't see the action, but this is Torin
crawling in his big brother's room. He just started
crawling a few weeks ago.

Evan's New Train Table


We bought Evan a train table in January.


At first, he was so good about keeping the pieces
on the table. Now he drags them all over the house.


Evan admiring his handy work.

The Many Hair Styles of Torin


This is Torin's regular hair style.
His hair naturally lays flat on his forehead.


I decided to have a little fun with Torin's hair
before we got his first hair cut.
Here is his faux-hawk.


Here is his 1950's "Leave it to Beaver" style.


This is his Eddie Munster look.


I have to admit that I had fun playing with his hair.
Evan's hair was so coarse that I never could have fun
playing with it. Torin got his first hair cut about
a month after I took these pictures. I will post pictures
of his new hairdo as soon as I find Justin's camera.
