Dressing Up

You may remember a week or so ago that my wife bought a bunch of costumes for the kids to dress up in. Can I tell you that this has been so much fun for them, especially on rainy days. A few more costumes have been added since the original post, but what I love … Continue reading Dressing Up →

A Purr-plexing Cat-astrophe?

So a co-worker came in last week and sat down next to me. "Keith, do you want another kitty?" Without any hesitation whatsoever I gave her a firm, "No!" She showed me a picture of four kittens who had been abandoned at a relative's house and said they were trying to find them homes. I … Continue reading A Purr-plexing Cat-astrophe? →

Bestie Birthday Wish

While she has been mentioned before in a few blogs, I have one friend who has never had one completely devoted to her. Today, on her birthday, I want to rectify that. As we get older, memories tend to fade. Details can get lost. We may remember things a bit differently than they actual happened. … Continue reading Bestie Birthday Wish →

Friday Photo Flashback

Today's Photo Flashback only takes us back a couple weeks. It's a story I have been meaning to write about on here for a bit, but with all the other things happening, it slipped my mind. So here is the story: I had to drop off the water bill recently. The municipal building houses the … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →

Fun At The County Fair

I got a call last Friday from my friend Margaret. She told me that the county fair was going on up by her and that Saturday was the last day. She asked if maybe we'd like to go. My wife had to work that night, so she was unable to go, but the kids and … Continue reading Fun At The County Fair →

I’ve Been Working on the Railroad

Andrew and I went up to the pet store in town to get some dog food for Daisy this week. There is a set of railroad tracks that run directly behind it. We can often hear the train's whistle as it goes through town from our house. When we pulled into the parking lot, Andrew … Continue reading I’ve Been Working on the Railroad →

Tune Tuesday – A Birthday Song (Sort of)

Today my second oldest son, Dimitri turns 17 years old. When I saw that Tune Tuesday fell on his birthday, I wanted to feature a song that has a connection to him. The one I have selected is probably unknown to you, because it was never a radio hit (although, you can hear it on … Continue reading Tune Tuesday – A Birthday Song (Sort of) →

A Much Needed Break

I had a few days off over this past weekend and I got some much needed family time. The time started on a sad note, as Thursday morning, my wife's family gathered at the National Cemetery where there was a small service for her grandma. They chose her grandfather's birthday to go and have her … Continue reading A Much Needed Break →

Songs From The Backseat

I had a day off this week and had a chance to see my daughter play T-ball. Before the game, we had to take a drive down to get my son's leg braces looked at. The whole family was in the car and Ella asked my wife to play "I am a C" song. I … Continue reading Songs From The Backseat →

Friday Photo Flashback

I was looking for a specific photo for today, but for the life of me, I cannot find it. However, while going through pictures, I found one that made me laugh out loud. The photo would have been taken around 2008-2009. At the time I would have still been with my ex. Our son, Dimitri … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →
