Well, the beginning of June our local renter let us know he would be moving out at the end of the month. I was quite sad about it, actually. He only lived there a year and a half, but he was an awesome renter. Never late with the payment, didn’t trash the place, always polite [...]
To be honest, you know what I like best about re-capping our vacation here on this blog? Not only does it give me an excuse to go back through the 2000+ (no lie) photos that I took, and re-live the happy memories, but this way, when I *finally* get organized in four or six or [...]
I put “inland” because technically, this isn’t vacation day number one, since vacation day number one was spent flying to the east coast. However, we only spent one day at our friends house before driving to the beach the next day …so in a way, that was vacation day number one since it was our [...]

Nothing quite as awesome as getting dropped off at the airport, kids and luggage in tow, only to discover your first flight has been delayed. By two HOURS. Of course, the OKC airport has a Sonic in the food court, so that easy access to my Diet Dr Pepper made the wait more tolerable. Then [...]
Brayden says: Dad’s current occupation: “Being in the Air Force” His dream job would be: “Flying a plane or baseball player” What expression does he use — way too often? “Well, he sleeps too much, for one.” What’s the last thing you two did together? “Heart to heart conversation” What piece of clothing should he [...]
Kendrie, as we were leaving the public pool today: “Mom, did you see that guy with the nipple earrings?!?!?”
Its a blatant cut and paste from a friend, but too funny not to share …. ***************************************************** Dear Noah, We could have sworn you said the ark wasn’t leaving till 5.
