The band hasn’t given me permission to put this up, but I wanted people to see a young(er) Jana in her only music video. This was from her first band Majestic 12.

Here are details from the facebook post for those of you not yet on the facebook wagon.
“Jana & Steve are coming to town and want to see everyone’s face at once. Bring your family and dinner and we’ll have s’mores for dessert. There is free parking by Jack in the Box (I’m not sure how available it will be) or you can just pay and head back towards Warner. We’ll get the closest pit to the free parking we can. I hope you all can come!”
Whether you’re able to RSVP on facebook or not, we’d love to see you out there.
this has been one of the most all-american 4th of july’s we’ve had together as a family (and we’re not even done yet!). let me give you a run-down of our activities thus far.
we started off with a hike with some friends through cougar mountain. we hiked a couple of miles and the kids were pretty good about it. asher wasn’t too stoked to walk so we ended up carrying him for quite a bit of it. below is the partial map of our walk. i use an app on my iphone called runkeeper that fully maps out walks and runs and the like. it’s actually pretty rad. it will show you the route you took as well as your speed throughout the activity. it even maps out your elevation changes. i forgot to start the app until about 1/2 mile into our hike so it’s incomplete and at one point it shows our speed at around 900mph which i think is a little off.
following the hike we headed over to a neighborhood 4th of july party. it was seriously taken straight from a norman rockwell painting. there were gunny sack races and beanbag tossing and face painting… it was awesome. couple that with the fact that there was free lunch and i was SOLD! unfortunately, most of the pictures didn’t turn out as i had the ISO on my camera set way high and they turned out really grainy. there are the few i got that turned out okay.
all in all, it was a pretty great day. well, it’s not even over yet, but i don’t know what we’re doing this evening. if it’s noteworthy, i’ll post an update.
P.S. – here’s a pano of the park where we had lunch.
P.P.S. – we ended up going to the muckleshoot indian reservation or, “the res” as they call it, to watch a bunch of maniacs light fireworks. seriously, they were all crazy. here’s a pano of the scene, straight out of apocalypse now.
these are some crime scene photos of our recent cherry pitting massacre.

i asked lily if she likes it and she says, “i don’t know.” no one ever likes their hair on the first day after cutting it, so i guess that answer was to be expected. i think she looks pretty cute!

so, a couple weeks ago i dropped and broke my iPhone 3G. it was heartbreaking to say the least. i decided to wait a couple of weeks until the new iPhone 3G S was released and upgraded to it. in many ways it’s the same phone, but it’s actually quite a bit faster and now it does video recording. i posted a test video to vimeo. check it out below.

he got into the dirt/bark in the backyard. he had a good time until he started getting slivers on his neck and in the bottom of his feet from the bark. i had to sit with him for a long while pulling them out. that is the most still i have ever seen him.
