Behold, The Power of Video...

So, I was checking out a friends blog the other day and he had posted a clip of his cat through a site called 'You Tube' for everyone to see. For months I've been trying to figure out a way to share all of the :16 video clips I've taken of Lexie and Chance with everyone...well, they are finally being posted to this blog. If you go back through the archives (there are quite a few clips mixed into the June 2005 archive, about 3 in the July '05, and one of Lexie at the Zoo from January '06) I have inserted them exactly where they would have showed up chronologically. Have a look and keep an eye out for more videos, I have many more to upload! By the way, my digital camera cannot record sound so the clips are silent.

Justin Patrick Allen - Friday, May 12th, 2006.

The newest Allen came into the world on Friday May 12th. My cousin Andrew and his wife Michele became first time parents on Friday night. They waited until the birthday to see what they were going to have. The little man weighed in at 8lbs, 14 ounces.

Chance's Birthday Weekend. April 28th-29th, 2006.

Dana's mother made the trip up for a long weekend to help us celebrate. We had made arrangements to celebrate the birthday at a gymnastics center on Saturday. On Friday, Dana and her mother took the kids to the zoo. For those with good memories, our friend Kathy had given Lexie a year's pass for our family to go to the zoo - a gift that has truly kept giving.
