The concept of a drive through window is pretty neat when you think about it. You’re able to conduct your business without ever leaving the confines of your vehicle. The most well known version of the drive through is of course the fast food window. That’s pretty cool naturally, but not NEARLY as cool as a drive through beer store (one of which I have very near my home). As cool as I think that is, ironically enough, I’ve never been a patron. But I digress.
While it isn’t nearly as awesome as drive up beer, our local… Continue reading
So last night, we finally had C-Man’s birthday party (we’d celebrated on his actual birthday when we were on vacation in Florida back in March). I was going through the hard drive this AM and realized that I’ve got quite a few AWESOME pics of the big man so I just had to share them! It’s been FAR too long since I’ve done a C-centric post!
As I mentioned, we took our yearly trip to Florida recently (HUGE thanks to Grandma & Pop for making this a possibility) and had an absolutely wonderful time. As you can imagine between… Continue reading
I’ve got a couple of images floating around on my hard drive that I just need to share. If you read my stuff more than once, you’ll know that family comes first. Sure, I’ll bitch about my kids now and then but they (and the Wife) mean the world to me. One of the things that always struck me growing up is how many pictures we took but never really looked at. I’m trying to remedy that at least a bit with this site.
It’s not all that often that we have pictures of all of us. This particular shot came from… Continue reading
It’s that time of year… Thanksgiving is almost here! It’s a time to give thanks, to see family and friends and to gorge yourself on way too much turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and that dish your aunt always brings that no one likes but they take a bit just to be nice.
We’re lucky enough to have both sides of our family close, and luckier still that everyone gets along Just as we did last year, everyone is getting together at my folks house and in addition to all the fixins, we’ll be doing 2 turkeys this year! Last… Continue reading
I recently posted this picture to my Facebook page. Now I know that Crocs aren’t “cool” by any stretch of the imagination, but I have to say I was a little bit shocked at just how much people hate these shoes.
That's right... I'm wearing my Crocs to the Home Depot. I am dad... Hear me roar.
Interested in the responses? Here they are (some of them had me rolling)…
- not cool..lmao!
- Yuck
- Lowes is much better
- you shouldn’t be wearing those unless you’re mario batali or 6.
- -5 cool points
- I see no problem with this…
- Fressssssshhhh!
- Do they… Continue reading
Gettin ready for Pip's Power Hour
I recently made my yearly trek back to the Hoosier State to see brother Pip. As always the weekend went way to quick, but it was absolutely awesome to see Pip and Lauren again. I look forward to this trip every year and it had been a while since I’ve made the journey. Last year, instead of going to Indy for a weekend, we made the trip to Bloomington to be with Matt & Lauren on their wedding day.
I set out early on Friday mid-morning to get a jump on the traffic. … Continue reading
The boys love Mr. Matt. They look forward to his trips here every year just about as much as I do. So, while they’re bummed that SuperDad isn’t going to be around this weekend, they’re super excited that Dad gets to hang out with his buddy. We were sitting around the dinner table last night and I mentioned to them that Mr. Matt wasn’t going to believe just how big they’d gotten and that I’d show pictures of them on my phone.
Naturally, that lead to the conversation of exactly WHAT pictures I was going to show Mr. Matt and… Continue reading
So we were down at the lake the other night. We got together to celebrate Pop’s birthday and we decided to go with a nice evening at the lake so the boys could swim. We ordered pizza to be delivered at the lake, the weather was beautiful and life was grand.
Unfortunately before we got a chance to eat our pizza, Mother Nature screwed us just as she did the last time we were down at the lake. The heavens opened up and we were forced once again to retreat back to the in-laws house (this time we got… Continue reading
Beautiful Bobby, Me & Little Kato
I recently attended an Akron Aeros ballgame on a beautiful August evening in downtown Akron. And while it was fun to watch the game at a great ballpark (Akron lost… I think) the “main event” for the evening was a different sport altogether. Two words… midget…. wrestling.
Now before you get your panties in a bunch about me using the term “midget” let me remind you that the event was promoted by the Aeros as “Midget Wrestling Night” and the performers were wearing shirts that said, “Got Midgets?” I figured if they were comfortable… Continue reading
Today’s my 35th birthday. As folks tend to do on these “milestone” birthdays I find myself being a bit introspective today. I’ve been completely overwhelmed by the well wishes by my family, friends and co-workers. Fair warning… this is going to get a bit sappy.
This Lady's My Rock... Love You H
I’m 35 today… she’s 35 tomorrow. I’ve often said that I was put on this Earth one day before her cause I knew she was coming. She keeps me in check and provides everything that guy could ask for in a wife and a mother. Love you Baby… Continue reading
