Technically, Sean’s birthday is Tuesday, but we kind of had our family deal this weekend. Next weekend, we will take him and a few of his friends out to lunch and bowling. For dinner, he wanted some spicy food, so I made him some Jambalaya. I don’t think he had ever had it before, but […]
Madden 08 – First Impressions
Okay, time for some first impressions on the new Madden 08 football video game for the Xbox 360. I have to admit that I have not been a fan of Madden over the years. In fact, I have been downright vocal against the series. In my opinion, EA has done what it can to ruin […]
Savannah Donates Her Hair

A while back Savannah heard about a program where, after a haircut, you could donate your hair for the making of a wig for those who are suffering from cancer or some other ailment or treatment where they had lost their hair. The only catch was that you had to have 7 inches or more […]
Weekend Fun
This past weekend was extremely busy, but very fun for us. The weekend started Friday night with us enjoying the relatively new Blu-Ray player. We have been watching many old movies in high def.

Family Update – 8/4/07
Monsoon season is in full swing here in Arizona. Afternoon downpours have been rolling in like clockwork. We have had a couple of gully washers that dropped 2 or 3 inches of rain each on us. The area sure is getting green. For us here, it’s been very, very humid. It actually reached 45% the […]

New Theater System
As mentioned in a previous post, I have replaced most of the components in my home theater system. I had set up the current system about 4 years ago when we moved into our current house in Arizona.
