Waiting at the window…light saber in one hand, sword in the other. He’s ready. Who’s he waiting for?

Today was the day…the big 28! Travis had been out of town since Friday morning for a work conference and returned today around lunchtime. He decided to take today and tomorrow off to spend some time with the fam. He couldn’t have chosen a better two days weather-wise. We spent the entire afternoon playing outside [...]

The above statement was a bit of a reoccuring joke on our recent vacation to Florida. Allow me to explain.
My selected reading for our trip was what is considered the Citizen Kane of graphic novels - Watchmen, written by Allan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbons.
Now, for those of you who aren’t familiar with graphic novels, you [...]

Last year we spent Father’s Day doing a lot of this:
This year, we spent Father’s Day doing more of this:
Yep, you got it. We spent Father’s Day looking at lots of monster trucks. What more could a boy want? More on that to come…
Happy Father’s Day, Travis! Owen couldn’t have a better Daddy!

Yes, that was my first response when I noticed this on the side of Owen’s crib:
In my mind, I’m thinking, “Of course I would never do something that would harm Owen’s crib…It must have been Travis.” I wasn’t meaning that I thought he did it intentionally. He never damages things around the house [...]

Due to a trip to visit my family in Arkansas, we’ll be unable to add to the blog until next Tuesday. So I thought we’d wish you happy st. patty’s day a few days early…and what better way to do that than with a little leprechaun lore?

Online “geek toy” rumor has it that the latest addition to the Mr. Potato Head family will be…drumroll please…TATER AND THE LOST ARK! Owen doesn’t know it yet, but he loves Indiana Jones. What guy doesn’t?!
Here’s a poor quality picture, but a picture nonetheless. I love the whip:
Owen already has a t-shirt that features Darth [...]
