Danelle has had a few surprise birthday parties for me. They are always a fun time and lots of planning. I think she was a bit surprised when her 40th birthday came and went with little fanfare. Unless you consider sending her to the beach for a week with friends a decent thing. Anyway, this … Continue reading “Danelle’s Surprise Birthday Party – 7/7/2018”
Its been said many times that “A bad on the water is better than a good day at work.”. Little did I know that today was going to push that theory to the limit… It started off as any national holiday should, with excitement having the day off work and thinking about the day’s events … Continue reading “Bad Paddle Day – 7/4/2018”
On the drive back from a visit to KC where we dropped off Sonora to hang out with her cousins for a few weeks, Danelle had a serious discussion with me about cats. We got Coat Rack less than a year ago after Tiko died. Petra wasn’t a huge fan of of Coat Rack as … Continue reading “Sushi – 7/3/2018”
This is the month of shopping carts. There were a few separate incidents… I can still talk the kids into doing silly things with shopping carts! They didn’t even fight with Sonora pushing.

Orchestra concert, bad hair, a new bridge, and a long motorcycle ride all happened. Nothing specific to report. Just photos.
Its been 3 years, but Deck Commerce returned to the Mud Run. This is to be the last Mud run at The Battlegrounds as they are converting the course to a Tough Mudder event. I can tell a difference as the course has changed and several more difficult obstacles were present this year. We didn’t … Continue reading “Mud Run – 5/19/2018”
This month, its all about me. In an effort to get a light above my desk at work fixed, I took a “scared” photo of myself holding a poop emoji. I sent this to the office manager that promptly got it taken care of. But she printed it out and put it on the office … Continue reading “April – 2018”
Sometimes you just have to get out of the house and explore. Corvin and I wanted to go for a unicycle ride and it seemed just warm enough at the house. We packed the unicycles and headed downtown to the Mississippi Riverfront Trail. We got out of the van, unloaded and started to ride. It … Continue reading “Unicycles and Water Pipes – 2/18/2018”
