My mom is so talented (and dad too, since he is helping). She is working on a stained glass piece for my uncle of a blue heron. Today, she just finished cutting the glass, and while she likely has weeks of work to do still (grinding, foiling, soldering, finishing, mounting, etc) it looks amazing. I’m [...]

We have been pretty busy this weekend. We packed up a lot of stuff, and cleaned a lot more. We brought some of it to the storage place so as to get it out of the way, and some of it is still here, awaiting transportation to the new apartment. The mattress to our bed [...]

Evan, for some reason, put one of Logan’s gift bags on his head, and was trying to eat that way. He’s so silly.

For someone that was close to going to the emergency room a little earlier, Evan had a ton of energy and running around the whole time of the “graduation” ceremony / recital. How can you yell at a face like this though. Of course, he was quiet the whole time… (We did get him to [...]

Logan “graduated” from pre-school today. All of the kids were cute, but the whole thing was a bit long and disorganized. I think that it is pretty silly to call it a graduation, but it is cool that Logan is ready to start kindergarten. Congrats, kiddo!

We had a great time hanging out with the Nielsens this past weekend. We didn’t do too much, other than eating at Satchel’s Pizza, and Chris and Steph getting tattoos, but it is always great to spend time with them. I was hoping to have a chance to hang out with Justin and family, but [...]

I went to lunch with come co-workers to this little restaurant called Maraya which is a Meditrranean place near where I work (and near where I will live). We weren’t sure if they were really open, as there were only 2 cars there, and it wasn’t very well lit. When we went in, we were [...]

This little guy was just sitting outside and let me get close. They’re neat bugs. Why am I taking picks of bugs?

It's weird.  I have had two people compliment me on my beard, when in reality it is just that I have been lazy.  I will need to clean up the neck at least, but what do you think?

I know that Scott is just going to kill it, but I think these guys are really cool. This one is eating one of the annoying bugs in the entry-way. Go Crab Spider!

We put in our deposit for the new apartment this morning, and we now have an address. It isn’t ready for us, but we went by to check out the view and the like (which is great as it is over the golf course by three water hazards). Even without the golf course being renovated [...]

I went with Bionca to put in our deposit for our new apartment this morning (see the next post for details), and we went to McDonalds for breakfast. McDonalds is doing this promotion today where you can get a free chicken biscuit with a drink purchase. I like the ones from Chic-Fil-A, so I figured [...]

Bionca and I wanted to check out the apartment complex where we are looking to move at night to see if things still look nice, or if they are creepy, so I had the idea to make a date night of it. We started out by going to Tiajuana Flats where I didn’t really follow [...]

On Friday, we decided to commit to finding an apartment. Since we are not really sure about what will happen in the next year, we decided to forgo the idea of buying a house of the moment. Bionca might have a job opportunity in the Tampa area, and we still like the idea of moving [...]

Last Saturday was pretty eventful. I posted most of it on Twitter, but I wanted to go over it a bit here, since there was a lot missed. We actually woke up at a decent time, but stayed in bed until about 12 to go get Logan and Evan. It was a little later than [...]

We’re very proud of you!

I apparently gave Bionca the impression that I was upset with her. If I was short with her, I certainly did not mean to be. When she said something to me about it I appoloized though that didn’t seem to satisfiy her at first. After she ate, however, all was well again. In reality, I [...]

I played Mario Kart again last night with Chris and Steph. I really like playing with them, but I wonder if I need to hold off on playing for a little while. When we used to play, Chris and I were about equal in skill level, but apparently I have retained the muscle memory a [...]
