Savannah’s Cheerleading Squad Takes 2nd

In a VERY long day, Savannah’s cheerleading squad earned a second place in the regional cheerleading competition. Her squad competed in the normal category. There was also an elite category where more stunts, tricks and stuff are done. Unfortunately, this whole event seemed extremely disorganized and haphazard. It was very frustrating for Sean and I […]

Cheerleading Competition Tomorrow

Sean’s football season is over. I missed the last game of the year being in Germany. They lost the game. Actually, somewhat late in the game and losing, the referees called the game because our kids were hitting the other kids too hard. Boy, I would have liked to see that and understand what the […]

Business Trip To Germany

If you have been watching my Quick Thoughts updates to the right, then you know I was recently in Germany on a business trip. I really like trips to Germany, but they are still hard on one. This was a pretty quick trip except that we had a weekend stay involved. One of my colleagues […]

Family Resemblence

We found this picture of Suzanne at age 9 in an old album and couldn’t believe how much it looks like Savannah. We thought that Savannah looked like Grammy, but now we think she looks just like her mother if you compare these two pictures. 5392 5395

Suzanne Thinking New Car, Again

Actually, it’s not as bad as the title might lead you to believe. She is thinking about doing this for a good reason. Normally, its me that wants the new car. 😉 About 18 months ago, we both bought ourselves new cars. I got a very nice Mercedes Benz E350 and she got a nice […]

A Step Backwards

Today was not a good day for Sean’s football team. They seem to seriously regress back to the old days and played terrible. Everyone on the team, including Sean, had a bad day. The final score of the game was 33 – 7. On defense, we couldn’t stop anything. If it wasn’t for a couple […]

We are now able to get around 75 HD channels on our satellite. TV viewing life is quite sweet now. Ever since getting an HDTV about four […]

Busy Days Ahead

Just when one seems to be relaxing into the lovely fall weather here in Arizona, bang, we go and get busy. Sean and Savannah have only two more weeks left in the regular season of football, but this occupies a significant portion of our Saturdays and three evenings a week for Suzanne and the kids. […]

Welcome To The New Mr Papa’s World Design

Yes, you are at the right place. This is Mr Papa’s World. The look is just different. Recently, I have tired of the look here at Mr Papa’s World. The Almost Spring theme had been in use here since June 2006. Today, I am happy to introduce the Papa Blues theme here at Mr Papa’s […]

Win Streak Comes To An End

Well, Sean’s football win streak came to an end today – in a big way. I mentioned in a previous post that the Bisbee kids were supposed to be big. Well, they didn’t disappoint. They were literally huge compared to our kids. Sean’s team actually ended up forfeiting the game at half time when they […]
