Yes, we’re still here

Well, I apologize for not keeping this blog up-to-date. I had really thought that I could probably write something at least once a week if not more, but then we get busy and I forget to do it for about 2 months or so. Here’s an update:

Christmas:

We had a very nice, but busy (as usual), [...]

‘Tis the Season

Thanksgiving came and went and was very good. We ended up having two Thanksgiving meals, one with my family at my grandparent’s house on Thursday and then with Heather’s family on Sunday. Both times were very enjoyable and it was nice to be able to spend time with family, and eat a lot of good [...]

A Political Zoo

Well, since it’s election season, I will make my one political blog. Thousands of people have been asking me to write a political blog, well, really just one person (this is for you Suzie!), so here it is:

I would first like to preface this by saying that I don’t really claim to be a Democrat [...]

How to Organize Your Family

While it’s not usually very difficult for Heather and I to arrange our schedules or know what the other has planned, I’m sure for many families with children, knowing where everyone needs to be can be a pretty daunting task. What is a person to do? Cozi.com to the rescue!

What is Cozi?

Long Time No Blog

I can’t believe it’s been so long since we’ve posted a blog entry. Just to keep everyone in the loop, here’s what’s been going on:

After the last blog entry about YES Camp, we had VBS at church. That’s always a very busy time with two weeks basically dedicated to it (Wakeup, go to work, go [...]

Y.E.S. Camp 2008 – Light the Fire Within

Last week was our second year to help with YES (Youth Encouragement Services) camp. This is the organization that Heather works for.

Last summer was the first time for this particular center to have camp. It was also my first year to attend any type of week-long summer camp, other than band camp. Somehow our vacations [...]

The Great Grass Experiment of 2008 – Part Deux

Well, it’s taken longer than I expected to get back on here and get some new pictures of the yard updated. We’ve been busy with work and working out in the yard here. So, after almost a week, here are the promised pictures:

Our grass is still growing. There are a few places that [...]

The Great Grass Experiment of 2008

One thing that I have really loved about being in the house now, is being able to work out in the yard. Yea, I seem like the person that would much rather be inside in a dark room hunched over in front of a computer all day long, but I do like to venture out [...]

Can U-Haul it?

Catchy title, eh? I thought so.

Well, as most of you know, we have been in the process of moving into my grandfather’s house for the last little bit. We finally made the big move this past Saturday. Wow, what an experience.

It actually turned out a lot better than I thought it was going to. Around [...]

Memories

Recently, we’ve been going through my grandfather’s house in preparation for Heather and I to move in. It’s been rough at times going through everything and being reminded of both Papa and Granny. After being over there the other night, Heather and I were talking afterwards about how different things are now. While going through [...]
