Happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there. And, a special wish for a great day to my Mom! I can’t wait until the family reunion next month. I haven’t really ever wondered how Mothers Day got started before, but for some reason today I googled it and found some interesting history tidbits over […]

Whole Family Going To Grandma’s Birthday
May 9, 2008 by 1 Comment
Today, we decided to go ahead take the whole family to my Grandmother’s 90th Birthday parties. We had been contemplating whether just I should go or the whole family should go. When we first started looking at the trip, tickets were running pretty high. I have a couple of tickets I could get on miles, […]

Okay, time for another one of my rare political leaning blogs, but I couldn’t ignore this one. As the title says, a recent study by the folks over at Live Science has found that conservatives are generally happier than liberals. Duh?

Today was the annual Cinco de Mayo festival (yes, its only May 3rd) in Sierra Vista.

Holy Cow, what a bad movie that was. We should have known better being that No Country For Old Men won Best Picture, but still, we gave it a shot because of the long list of stars in the movie. Suzanne has been saying that “her 10 year kid could have written a better ending […]
Sean’s Baseball Season In Full Swing
April 23, 2008 by Leave a Comment
If its Spring time and we seem busy than usual, it must be baseball season. And it is in full swing. Sean wanted to play with some older and more capable kids this year so he is now playing in a neighboring city instead of Sonoita. When I say neighboring, keep in mind we live […]

A while back I mentioned that we were going to be purchasing a new Select Comfort Sleep Number Bed. Our previous mattress had served us well, but was 14 years old. Suzanne and I believed that we also preferred different style mattresses. The Sleep Number Bed seemed like a perfect fit. About four weeks ago, […]
