Ryan and Jax today...

Figured I'd post a new photo of Ry and Jax. Haven't been in here for a week or so. Does anyone look at these anyway? I wonder. Jax is now 7 mos (Ryan is now 13 years and 9 mos) old and hasn't grown much at all (neither has Ryan). We're hoping with some good nutrition and exercise they'll both grow up to be strong young fellows.

Barrett-Jackson 2009

One of my favorite things to do each year is go the Barrett-Jackson show in Scottsdale.
I've missed it for a few years but made it there today with Kaylin...yea the boys weren't
interested in going. Only my lil Tom-Boy Kaylin was up for it. We had fun watching the
auction but the other two cool things were watching a "drifting demonstration" that
was unbelievable and then we got up close to the original Batmobile...and in it was the
original Batgirl (Yvonne Craig). The Batmobile went for 150K. Fun times.

Kaylin Misc and Choir Concert

As you can see in the photos above Kaylin is really excited

about being in the concert this year. Right after 5th grade

was done she was headed toward the exit.

Liberty Lion's B-Ball 08/09

The boys are off to a good start. Seem to be getting better

each week during the season. Austin is #5

Dec 1st- Ry and me on top of Thunderbird Mtn

Sort of hard to tell but Ryan has a mouth full of bread...or was it chewing tobacco?

Liberty Lion's Inaugural Varsity Team

Suns Vs. Rockets

Austin at the Suns game last night. Dunno how things will pan out for them this year. Nash got into a fight so that was interesting and made the head lines.

Thanks to James Nally for the tickets!

Happy 80th Birthday Mom!!!!!

"All that I am or hope to be I owe to my darling Mother"

Not another picture Dad...geez!

It's Kaylin's 11'th BIRTHDAY! Hard to believe we will have 3 teenagers soon. Here's the kids today out front testing Ryan's gift to Kaylin. It was a memory-foam cushion seat for her bike so she could ride in comfort. What a good brother!

Halloween 2008 - Austin Holmes, Ryan and Kaylin

Yo yo yo!

517 Kibler Ave- The original Howards

Here's a photo on the porch this past August when we were all home for Mom's 80th Birthday party and get together. We we're looking for a more casual shirt for Dad to wear for this but we were in a hurry as we were headed to the airport.

Happy Halloween 1970

This must have been about 1970-ish.
Bryan Moore (sheep), Brad Mathews (Spaceman) and me the clown.

Austin catching up on some Zzzz's today

La La Land...

Jax

What?

Matt in congnito... working at the OHIO State Fair 1981

Yea that's me in the Cardinal costume scaring little kids in Teeter park at the Ohio State Fair when I worked for the Youth Conservation Corps back in 1981. As you can see I'm scaring my niece Annie Rae Dawn Howard who was 8 mos old...there's Sheri Berry (or is that one of the Wilson sisters from the band Heart)? And there's my Mom. Hey...I think if you look hard enough that's Beth hiding behind Mom's hat. Yep!

Kaylin (11) Ryan (13) School Pics 2008

Look at Ryan...

turning into a MAN!

1966 Mom-Dad-Beth-Sheri and me

My guess is this was 1966 the year I was hatched. Man I had an EGG-head...poor Mom! Beth looks a lot like Annie here and Sheri like Jennifer. So what I'm wondering now is who paid Dad to hold a kid wearing a diaper?

Getting ready for the season...

Mom's kitchen

In the kitchen on Kibler Ave.-August 2008

Kaylin at the finish line last Saturday

Kaylin Rae is in her second cross country season and if she has her way...it'll be her last. She's said she's going to be a swimmer again and get back in the pool summer 2009.

Still going strong!

Here's a recent picture of Mom and Dad out back. Dad's 84 and Mom is now 80! Stay active and keep the right attitude and this can happen to you :-) ! Love you guys! Matt

Jade Asher Dasher and Miranda Howard ROCK NEWARK

Well here's some good photos of my two nieces Jade and Miranda. Both are single and looking for a normal guy but hey...they aren't push overs you've gotta have your act together brother. No spunging off these fine ladies. Email me for details

The second photo is of my MOM and Jade Ashley a few weeks ago. My mother is amazing and is fighting cancer and always-always has a phenominal attitude. We love her SO much. HI MOM! Matt
