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
I haven’t done a whole lot of blogging about the family lately but that’s certainly not by design. I’ve got a ton of super cute pictures and videos from the last couple of months that I’m dying to get to. I was walking out of the library the other day and happened to look over and see this scene… it was so cute to see the boys and A sitting there and even better cause I didn’t even know they were there!
To see them sitting there playing their Harry Potter video game was just awesome. Every once in a… Continue reading
Chewie's Family Room (Twinsburg, Ohio)
We had the family over on New Year’s day for some grazing on great food and to watch the Steelers / Browns game. My wonderful brother brought over a few 12 Dogs Of Christmas Ales… Outstanding!
I started doing a yearly recap last year. During the past year, I’ve found myself referring to that post quite a few times so I figured I’d do it again this year. Got something you want me to cover in 2012? Drop me a line and I’ll see what I can do!

#10 – Thoughts At 35 No matter how hard I try, I continue to get older. On this “milestone” birthday I decided to jot down a few musings.
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
My all time favorite baseball player is Jim Thome. When he left my beloved Cleveland Indians in 2002 it was a very sad day for me. So when I heard the news the other night that the Indians had claimed him off waivers from the Twins you can imagine how I felt… I wasn’t sure if I was dreaming or not. I was elated when I woke up the other morning and read the news that we’d in fact signed him to a contract and Jimmy was coming home!
After the Indians made the announcement that he had been signed… 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
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
I had a great Father’s Day this year. Based on the fact that I’m writing this post a month after the fact just goes to show how memorable the day truly was. The day started off on the golf course with my dad and brother. This has become sort of a tradition and one that we really enjoy. It was a beautiful day (at this point) but it was a bit slow on the course. We decided to just play 9 holes and have a leisurely lunch.
I got a nice note that a good friend of mine Tom Whittaker… Continue reading
