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 […]
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 […]
Happy Easter
Happy Easter! (I already covered that)…. Today is Julie and Kyle’s last day (unless you count tomorrow morning before they leave to go home. I don’t). We’ve been to the zoo and it was packed out.

Julie’s Coming Today!
Little baby (almost all growed up) Julie and her boyfriend are minutes away from our house. We’re so excited to play all weekend! And… It’s absolutely beautiful out in the wild outdoors. Word.

After school Friday, Derek and I made a spur of the moment decision to drive to St. Petersburg, Florida, to see my Dad’s side of the family. We made it there in 10 hours of drive time and spent the weekend and came back yesterday. (Hopefully, soon, I’ll get a biography entry ready for it.) […]
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 […]
Thanksgiving
The Thanksgiving 4-day weekend is almost over. We had Thanksgiving dinner at Derek’s uncle’s house, with all of his family. It was fun. Lots of food. Lots. On Friday, we tried to shop with the rest of the crazy people, to get good deals. We did alright. But, we tired quickly. We went to dinner […]
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.
