Life just never seems to slow down. sometimes I get to the end of the week and even after doing all kinds of things, I feel like I've accomplished nothing. The last two weeks have been really messed up for me. I took Thursday and Friday off last week for Ella's surgery. The week before … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments

Popsicles and Ice Cream
I apologize for not giving an update sooner. Thank you for your prayers and well wishes for our daughter. Ella's surgery went well and she came home Thursday evening. They wound up not taking the tonsils out completely. They basically shave them down, which leads to an easier recovery. I'm not sure it's been easy … Continue reading Popsicles and Ice Cream
Request
My wife and I will be warming seats in the surgical waiting room today. A few months back, our doctor took out my daughter's adenoids. After the surgery the doc came out to tell us that the tonsils didn't need to come out. On the way home, I told my wife, "If we end up … Continue reading Request
Friday Photo Flashback
Last week at soccer, one of the drills that we did with the team was like bowling. We set up cones with one in front, two behind that, and three in the back. The kids had to throw the ball overhand and try to knock down the cones. Then they had to kick the ball … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback
Moments To Remember

This was the first day of soccer for Andrew and me. He was so excited that I … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments
Friday Photo Flashback
Today's photos are not only a flashback, but they tie into a current situation as well. You may remember that last fall, Andrew was playing soccer. I say "playing soccer," but it is more of a game oriented introduction to the game. There were days that he loved playing and days that he hated playing. … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback
Life’s Little Moments
We've had a lot going on over the past week. I feel like I am just getting around to settling down. Easter I hope you had a good Easter, if you celebrate. My wife's family did all the Easter stuff on the Friday before. I had to work, so I missed all the fun. They … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments
Getting Closer …
I suppose every state (or country for that matter) has their own weather quirks. Here in Michigan, the weather is a subject of humor almost daily. There is a plethora of funny cartoons/memes about that very subject. Here are a few of my favorites: Alas, Spring is trying to get here. We had a few … Continue reading Getting Closer …
The Music of My Life – 2014
Welcome back to The Music of My Life, where I feature ten songs from each year of my life. In most cases, the ten songs I choose will be ones I like personally (unless I explain otherwise). The songs will be selected from Billboard’s Year-end Hot 100 Chart, Acclaimed Music, and will all be released … Continue reading The Music of My Life – 2014
