With the holidays fast approaching I’ve got a glut of information to go through before I leave for the break. We’re going to have classes and assignments through the weekend until the early part of next week. After that, I’m going to sit around and wait to leave. We’re doing a cross-country Christmas this [...]

Since I last made a post the wheels have been put into motion… and they didn’t turn far.
We got our assignment and we don’t have to pack up our bags and move. We’re going to stay at McChord for the next few years. Along with my assignment I got my next pile [...]

We’ve been busy hanging out with the extended family, attending weddings, playing with the dogs, cleaning the house, and we’ve been having a great time doing all of that. We won’t have any slow days until sometime next [...]

So far I’ve [...]

We’ve been planning on attending their wedding for more [...]

Dogs have an ability to know when you can’t afford to take them to the vet clinic. Yesterday, after much debate, Jessica and I decided to replace our grill with a propane/charcoal/smoker combo. While I was putting it together the dogs were running free in the yard. Jessica was in the yard playing hide [...]

Well, it’s all over. The turkey is demolished and the wrapping paper is in shreds. All in all it went pretty well. On Christmas Eve, my grandparents aunts uncles cousin parents sister and bro in law all came over for Christmas dinner. I cooked my 26lb turkey and it was really yummy if I [...]

President Elect Obama released his first “fireside” chat that can be viewed below in its entirety.
It sounds like Jessica and I were correct in the belief that we would see a shift from the military industrial complex to civic works and green energy. I think these are both going to be [...]

I caught an interesting article about kids that built their own wiffle ball field in the middle of undeveloped city grounds. They cleared the land, put up an American flag, and put up their version of Fenway’s green monster.
Soon after – the lawyers came.
I’ll let you read the rest of the article [...]
