Well, it is Wednesday before the big race and I’m getting mentally and physically prepared. I ran a quick 2 miles yesterday and will do the same today just to stay loose, but no running after today. I want to be fully recovered and rested before the half marathon. The bad thing is my son [...]

I’m not sure any of you remember my hair braiding incident earlier this year, but it really got me to thinking about hair styles and more importantly… experimenting with mine.

This past Sunday, I was at the coffee maker in our church foyer grabbing a cup of Joe. My 2 1/2 year old daughter was with me at the time. After doctoring my coffee I was ready to head back into the church to survey where my seat was, what my other family members were [...]

Traveling Without the Kids Aubrey and I went up to Wisconsin this past weekend to visit with my sister and see their new baby get baptized. We left our three children with Aubrey’s parents and my parents helped some during the days. We had a really great time and it was the first time in [...]

This story starts when we finally arrived back at home around 9:30 PM. I unlocked the front door and walked in, [...]

My wife and I actually had some time out a while back. After dropping the kids off with my parents we headed to one of our favorite restaurants, Bonefish Grill, and had a very nice (and quiet) meal. Afterwards we headed over to the movie theatre and watched The Dark Knight (yeah it’s been that [...]
