My teammates and I got the opportunity to present at the National School Board Association conference in Denver, Colorado this past week. So off I flew, away from JT for the longest time yet. We had an awesome time! No cooking, no cleaning, time with friends, what could be better? Made a cameo at theContinue reading “Denver!”

With the entire day to ourselves JT and I spent it how we wanted. First, we slept in. Since I was still on work schedule and couldn’t fall asleep until well after 3:00 AM, I was very happy that JT didn’t get up until 9:00 AM. Then we ate breakfast, on the couch, in frontContinue reading “Today, We Were Men.”

Well I made it through my first half day on my own. With Becky in Denver JT and I are left to run the house. So far so good. We cuddled on the couch and watched Christmas Vacation together. I have to take these opportunities to show him his American heritage. Sorry there are no picturesContinue reading “Daddy Blog”

Our friends the Shucks invited JT and I to go with them to Thomasson Family Farm this afternoon. The weather was cold and wet, but it didn’t rain on us until we were leaving – phew!

‘Nuff said. 🙂

You may have read about how we got JT a new armchair. (If you missed that post, click here.) I wasn’t thrilled with the fabric or color. So with Jim out of town last week, I had plenty of time for a project. I recovered the chair and am very happy with the results. NowContinue reading “The New Chair – Part 2”

One sunny weekday, we went out to Carpinito Brothers’ pumpkin patch. Not to get a pumpkin, really, but to get pictures of JT in the field of pumpkins. I can’t believe how lucky we got to get this family picture with the camera on timer. Gotta love the Gorillapod. One with Mom… one with Dad…Continue reading “Pumpkin Patch”

We went to my parents’ house for my dad’s birthday breakfast. Just like grandparents, they got JT a present (wait, whose birthday is it?)! Here Grandpa is showing JT how to use his new train, complete with sound effects. What a great day. Happy birthday, Jim Cole!
