Fall 2007

Things this fall are simply WONDERFUL!  Maggie and I had our first vacation alone in 7 years, and we're like kids when we talk about it.  We're still remembering what we were doing "at 7:30 three weeks ago tonight".  Longing is more like it.  The kids are great, if not destructive.  The extended family is great.  There's nothing to complain about.  Happy Thanksgiving all, and Merry Christmas (knowing me it will be until Jan or Feb before I update this again.  I hope these holidays find you in good health and your lives are filled with happiness.  See you soon.

Summer 2007

I've decided that I'm going to make this a quarterly update.  I have far too much going on to get this thing updated every month.  And with 3 or 4 months to talk about, I can fill the page with "interesting" anecdotes.  This summer has been great.  We've had two parties, we've gone to Arlington Park Racetrack a couple of times, and Teresa is turning into a serious woman.  An angry woman at that.  There are LOTS of big things coming too.  Uncle Jess and his family, and we're going to the Wisconsin Dells in two weeks.  The world's greatest water park is at Chula Vista, and we have 3 nights in 2 bedroom condos...it's going to great!  More inside, and we have 138 pictures, so take your time.

March / April / May 2007

I know.  I know.  Complete slacker I am.  It's been three months since I've updated the site, and I have no excuse.  Oh wait, yes I do.  Melted computer.  That's right.  I melted my PC.  I took it to work, to have the video card looked at, and when I brought it home, I left it in the car for a few days, b/c I was too lazy to bring it into the house right away.  Maggie called to me on a Sunday afternoon, after opening my car, at 150 degrees inside.  Everything melted.  But we're back!  And better than ever.  Enjoy!

Jan / Feb 2007

It's been quite a while since I've updated the site.  The problem is that it's been 10 degrees for the past 2 months, and we haven't done much of anything.  We did watch the Bears blow the Superbowl!  It was devastating!  Luckily I didn't lose any money.  We also went sledding a couple times.  Fun fun.  We're going to have to make a better effort taking pictures though.  Two months and we have 30 pictures to show for it.  Not very good.  Life is good.  We're all pining for the spring.  Cubs, Sox, sun....WARMTH!  We miss you global warming!  Enjoy the pics.
