  • Vacation Time!

    Tomorrow I’m off on the “big” vacation for this summer. Well 4 days. Not exactly long, but still. Last year me, my wife, and kiddo went to Niagara Falls both NY and Canada. This year we’re going to an island in the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. It’s a much shorter drive, that’s for sure. It’ll…

  • Olive Has A Summer Cut!

    Olive the #Airedoodle is back from the groomer. She’s got a nice summer cut going and is absolutely exhausted. Poor pooch. She likes the groomer, just a lot for the poor girl. She’s 3 so lots of spunk, but I guess the grooming takes a lot out of her.

    Well the 80s themed birthday party was a success. The 12 yr old kiddo didn’t participate at all, not surprising, but disappointing.
