Married In Ohio

I like this photo and decided to post it “just because”. It’s not that good of a photograph but it reminds me of Fourth of July vacation which seems like a long time ago now that school has started. It probably wouldn’t be so symbolic if it was better quality. I think one of the [...]

The children have been back in school for a week now and California Girl and I are just settling into our new schedule. The optimum time seems to be after the kids have been picked up from practice while they are getting cleaned up and working on their homework. We usually eat dinner a litter [...]

We’ve seen some magazine covers on other blogs and decided to make one for ourselves. We finally found a free moment to take some new photos on Tuesday. Let us know what you think. You can make one of your own at Magazine Cover.

This past weekend was so busy with kids’ activities, California Girl and I barely had time to breathe. With two kids playing fall sports, sometimes, weekends are even more hectic than weekdays. This was one of those weekends. The Boy had to be at school to leave for his cross country meet at 7:30 and [...]

I saw this at Fred and Wilma’s Fun and though I would make one for Labor Day weekend; a 4-day weekend for us

I couldn’t wait for California Girl to get back from dropping off our daughter at the teenager club. With our son out of the house for the early evening as well, we would have the house to ourselves. We’ve both been missing the relaxed intimacy of our summer schedule. It’s only been a few days [...]

The girl has started blogging. I told her that she wasn’t allowed to have a blog until she was 13. Well she turned 13 back in July; so last week, she stared a blog. It’s mostly the sort of thing that would only appeal to young teenage girls. I did think the post she wrote [...]

The children were zombies on Thursday morning. It’s only the first full day of school for both of them and already I sound like a broken record. “Come on. Let’s go.” “Get I he car.” “Got to go now.” “Time to go.” I’ve got many such phrases in my vocabulary but none of them have [...]

We decided to jump on the band wagon and do a “Half-Nekkid Thursday” picture. We took it this past weekend. We were pressed for time so it isn’t as “artsy” as we would like. See if you can figure out what’s going on in the part of the picture you can’t see.

Today was the last “free” day before the kids go back to school. Free is relative since The Girl had multiple evening activities and we didn’t get home until almost 10:00 P.M. Summer is definitely over. There was a chill in the air after the sun went down. I found my self wishing I had [...]
