The life and times of a happily married couple in Ohio.
We watched The Girl play soccer on Saturday. College girls play rough! We knew intellectually that her games would be more physical; but it was still a different experience watching our daughter play a college game. We’ve watched many games in person and on television including the Womens World Cup; but it’s not the same [...]
We didn’t post about it this past spring when she signed her letter of intent but The Girl is playing soccer in college. We always knew that she had enough athletic ability to play at the next level if she worked hard and it was great to see her learn what she could accomplish with [...]
The Girl recently started taking boxing classes like I do. She’s very athletic and in a great shape; but I still like to see if I can out do her. And, even though I claim I’m an “old man” she likes to see if she can outperform me as well. I’ve attended a lot more [...]
It was another busy but successful weekend for us. For the third weekend in a row, The Girl had an out of town soccer tournament. She played really well in the championship game and her team was victorious. You may have seen in the background of some of our photographs that our mantle is full [...]
In a preview of this coming fall, we just completed 900 mile round trip to and from a soccer tournament for The Girl. It was a lot of driving; but it was fun to get out town and be some place warm and sunny. The temperature wasn’t that much different than here; but, because of [...]
If you have been following us for awhile, you may remember that we posted a Digital Photo Frame with all of the photographs from the year’s TFT posts in December of 2007. We didn’t get around to it for 2008 until last July. We probably should have done this last week for the last Two [...]
January Did a lot of tinkering with the number of posts on the front page to speed up page load times. Finally I wrote a plugin that shows all posts published in the last seven days on the home page. Created and published our favorite HNT photo post of the year. February Got California Girl [...]
This isn’t a sports blog but I have to mention the Bengals’ great win today; especially since the wife of the defensive coordinator died unexpectedly on Thursday. I can’t imagine what it must be like to go home and find your wife dead. We’ll definitely be doing a photo tribute to them in the near [...]
The Girl played another good game today (Saturday). She and her team have been playing really well recently. It’s going to be sad to see their season end knowing that this is their last year together. The season has really zoomed by. They’ve got a few more games to play and then the tournament starts [...]
California Girl and I went to a wedding on Saturday. It was wonderful. The bride was absolutely glowing. It’s always great to see a young couple first embarking on their life together. Everything is so positive and full of hope. So many times when we are out having a good time we see couples that [...]
