This past weekend, we finally got around to watching the Transformers movie. We have had it from Netflix for a while, but I kept putting off watching it as I was not very interested in the movie. I remember the transformers from my younger days and it was very hokey to say the least. So, […]
Savannah’s Birthday Party
Savannah’s Birthday was this past Wednesday. Tomorrow, we will have a big Birthday bash for her. We usually have fairly big Birthday parties for each of the kids every other year. On the off years, we usually have a more reserved family party or go out for a nice dinner. This year, Savannah wanted a […]
American Idol
Oh boy, tonight the new seventh season of American Idol debuted – lucky me. Suzanne and Savannah are die hard fans of the show. Sean sometimes gets caught up in the show. Me, I don’t like it, but am constantly coerced to watch it. Usually, I flat out refuse and bury myself back in the […]
Sean Still Cheering His Patriots To Hopefully A Perfect Season
Our son Sean is a HUGE New England Patriots football fan. Last August, Sean’s room got a complete makeover themed in Patriots stuff. It was out with the western theme and in with the Patriots. He’s got Patriots curtains, bedding, pennants and wall hangings. He’s even got a deluxe Tedi Bruschi #54 pennant and Bruschi […]

National Finals Rodeo
One of my dream vacations would be to attend the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. Every year, in our little home town, we get a taste of the spirit of the rodeo when our town hosts the annual Sonoita Rodeo. Its a small time rodeo, but has all the pageantry and competition of the […]
Happy New Years!
Happy New Year to everyone! We rang in the New Year last night in our traditional fashion. Leading up to the momentous moment, we did family karaoke before settling in to watch Dick Clark ring in the new year. Or least the kids and I watched Dick Clark. Suzanne, as usual, fell asleep at 11:45 […]
Back To Netflix
Well, looks like its time for us to switch back to Netflix for our video rentals. We were one of the early/original subscribers to Netflix when they first began their novel approach to video rentals. Getting our movies by mail was a time saver and it was really convenient to be able to keep them […]
