I’ve got at least a half-dozen posts that I’ve been meaning to get written, but it’s been a busy month for us. It’s a Catch-22 of sorts: the more we have going on, the less time we have to document it! One of the things I’d like to start writing up are our favorite recipes, […]

August 24, 2009
Carson headed up to Maine with my parents for a week-and-a-half. I got the photos off their camera, but can only provide the sparsest of descriptions.

Behind on posting…again…so this is news that is now over a week old. Julie headed to Cleveland for the day two weekends ago with Alana to attend her cousin’s baby shower. That left me with the boys for the day. And, was I ever on a Super Dad roll! To summarize: Built a plaster-of-Paris volcano […]
