And there you have it. Thanks to all who participated in the “guess what Owen’s going to be” game. There were some very inspired guesses. But as destiny would have it, Owen has embraced his inner geek at an early age, and I couldn’t be happier about it.
Owen actually handled his costume quite well – [...]

Our house has been a buzz with lots of preparation for Owen’s first Halloween. It all began with the annual carving of the pumpkin. Travis, being the “Clark Griswold” of the family, insisted on our little family watching “Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin” to get into the spirit of Halloween. After the inspiration we [...]

Yes, Owen has a Halloween costume this year. No, he’s not going to be a pirate (this pic came from one of his crazy, er, average days home with Emily).
We’ll reveal his costume on Wednesday, but until then we’re taking guesses as to WHAT he’s gonna be. The winner will get fame, fortune, their own [...]

So why not kick things off with a little Thriller? C’mon. You know you want to. The above video even cuts straight to the good stuff.
I also recommend you click here to see the Thriller dance interpreted by a rather…um…unexpected?…group of guys.

Okay, here’s the progression! He’s doing it. He’s rolling over all by himself!
I know that the first picture looks like Travis is helping him, but I promise that he’s not! The last picture is what his face looks like every time he rolls…complete amazement [...]

Maybe it’s just me. But I’m pretty sure there’s a similarity here.

As I am quickly learning, the life of a stay-at-home-mom is never dull! (In case you haven’t figured it out yet, this is Emily! My first post…yippee!) This week, Owen gained more independence, and I lost a little of my freedom. Gone are the days when I could put Owen in [...]

If only I could flash back in time to my freshman year of college. I’d talk myself out of growing a beard…I’d elect not to take Geology…and I’d make everyone I knew watch Freaks and Geeks. It probably wouldn’t have saved the show, but at least I would’ve done my part.
Instead, I feel like part [...]

Last weekend we headed west to KC, where we met my parents and hung out with some of the fam. We stayed at Luke and Amy’s house (Luke’s my cousin, pictured above), but somehow managed NOT to get a pic of Amy. Sorry about that, Amy. They have a great place and were fanstastic [...]

This is so good, I couldn’t just post it here.
“Manualist” Gerry Phillips has entertained and inspired a number of my friends and co-workers over the past week, and I feel it’s my duty to share his…um…art?…with you all.
“Ger” (as I endearingly call him) needs no more than a circa-1987 couch, computer [...]
