Funny Memory

The above photo is exactly how I remember the cafeteria in K-Mart growing up! Somehow some coworkers and I started talking about the days when you could actually get a full meal at K-Mart (Or as my grandma called it, THE K-Mart.).

Mid-Week Lookback

Just this week I was reminded that my wife and I got our new vehicles. We each got a Chevy Trax. What is had to believe is that just two years later, mine hit a big milestone. She hit 100,000 miles driving south on I-75 on my way to work. Here's to the next 100,000! … Continue reading Mid-Week Lookback →

Life’s Little Moments

I've said this numerous times, but it is so special when I can get all of my kids together. My oldest had called and asked if we could go to dinner on Father's Day.

Popsicles and Ice Cream

Time Well Spent

Sometimes, you have to MAKE time. That is what I did the last time my boss asked for all of our "time off requests." I chose one day a month and took it off to be sure that my wife and I get some "us" time. Last Friday, was the first of those days. By … Continue reading Time Well Spent →

Her Name Up In Lights – Sort Of

There is never a dull moment at our house! It was a weekend full of some really memorable moments. Saturday was a laid back kind of day.

Father's Day began for me on Saturday morning. We celebrated Saturday because Sam had to work on Sunday. When I returned home from work, my kids were already up and waiting.
