It’s Christmas Eve. We’re in Batavia, NY. It’s bitter cold. I have consumed a great amount of delectable Christmas treats. I feel disgusting. We are now just awaiting family to arrive to have our Christmas Eve celebration and our Christmas Morning Gift Unwrapping Extravaganza (FREE FOR ALL). There’s no waiting turns or patient watching while […]

To NY Again
We are heading back to NY tonight (after our game against Mt. Tabor). This is a snapshot of part of our Christmas journey last year. It was quite nightmarish for awhile (in West Virginia). Hopefully, better weather will prevail and trip will be smooth and danger free. School is finished. I will run up there […]
Home Sweet Home
We are in NY. We travelled home last night and got here around 2 am. It was one of the longer seeming trips we’ve taken. Partly because it was rainy most of the way and we left at 3:30 pm and Lucy was restless for the whole trip. We are in Buffalo, right now, hanging […]
Cool New York
This is a cool new t-shirt I got. (I actually got it awhile back, but I’m just now posting it.)… Anyhow… It’s for my kids at school, most of whom [sadly] did not know that there was a whole state and not just one big city. They are realizing that upstate New York is as […]
Boy Wonder
We’re back from NY. We brought Jake (the self-proclaimed “Boy Wonder”) with us. This is a picture of him while we were in NY. We saw Spiderman 2 (great movie, by the way), and he was all about some Spidey for the rest of the trip. He wore this costume approximately 60% of the time […]
And We’re Off
We are starting our journey to Batavia, NY 14020 in approximately 20 minutes. It will take about 10 hours, with a little cooperation with traffic conditions and limited stops. Until then…. Peace out. Oh, and before I forget, and break my promise…. A big shout out to Doyle Nicholson. 🙂
Batavia, NY and Jake Paine
We went to NY on Thursday. We just got back yesterday afternoon. We did lots of fun stuff: went to Utica for a day to see Chris and Bear and go fishing and stuff watched Jake’s baseball game ate at the Pok-a-dot, OF COURSE went to Niagara Falls had a celebration with all the neighbors […]
Back to NC life
We are back. Truth is, we’ve been back. I was pretty sick this week (see blog entry: flu), and then we’ve been pretty busy trying to get back in order. NY was a lot of fun. Poor Jake was sick a lot of the time (and likely the reason I was sick). He started puking […]
Heading Home
We are leaving today to head to NY for Christmas. I can’t wait. Real snow and cold. Christmas excitement the way I remember from being a kid. Even though it’s not quite the same these days.We’re taking the truck so we don’t get stuck.
Jake’s Birthday Weekend
We went to NY this past weekend for Jake’s sixth birthday. We got him Finding Nemo. We had a party with Pokemon cupcakes. We went to see Elf and it was great!! Anyhow, the weekend was awesome. I’ve posted some pictures here.
