Lucas is 3 years and 8 months old in this image. I have not updated the website in a while because I have been real busy with you Seminar Tour since January. I also have not been shooting with my G2 becasue i have been waiting for a new camera, the Nikon D200. Check out the flickr and .mac site for new images of Lucas. He is growing up so fast. He is becomming a real little boy, asking "why", jumping off everything, arguing with mom, and all of the usual 3 year old antics. Now that I have the new Nikon D200 you will see more and more images.

Celebration 2006

We celebrated the New Year at Rich and Marisol's house. The party started early and lasted into morning. Jen, Stan, Emma, Me, Justine, Lucas, Jim, Katie, Holly, Ryan, Rich, Marisol, Eva, and Delia. It was a small party but that didn't stop us from making it memorable and long lasting. The kids were wild, dressing up in costumes, and running around wild. We drank and ate, ate and drank, and then drank some more. It's a good thing they live right down the street. The party lasted until 4:30 am, a respectable time for a New Years party. Here is to 2006.

Well, Christmas is here. Today is the big day and boy was Lucas surprised to see the many gifts we had in store for him. As a 3 year old he is still just learning about this once a year day. The gifts we gave him are pretty cool. For instance we found a wooden tree house with 4 different levels, includng a swing, a crane, a crows nest, and a rope ladder. We also gave him two new games from Cranium, one called Hullabaloo, and the other called Balloon Lagoon. He also received a Thomas the Train Set, Jenga, and some Small Paul clothes from Paul Frank. Christmas was fun this year, we went a little over board but hey that's what life is for, if you can't have fun with your kids then something is wrong.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

This year has been pretty good for the Aguilera's. Not only has Lucas done pages full of firsts but we moved our business downtown and traveled the world. We took two vacations this year, one to Monterey California and the other to North Carolina. I have been on business to London, Sweden, and Australia as well as at least 1/4 of the US states for Two Major Seminar Tours. Lucas has been reading all year and has shown us the meaning of patience. It's been a good year for all of us and to top it off, I just found out that one of my images I shot when Lucas was a month old just won 1st place in a national photo contest, where the first prize is $5000.00 Cash and a new printer. We will see what next year holds....
