    Everyone’s Alive in Utah!

    Monday, June 23rd, 2008

    For those who didn’t know: Carson and I are batchin’ it for the next 10 days while my fam is in Utah with my Sister- & Brother-in-law. As I said yesterday several times, we’re planning on including all three major food groups: Meat, Cheese, and Fried. And my house will be action movie [...]

    Back From Omaha

    Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

    Well, we made it back alive from Omaha.  It was a great time and we had a lot of fun.  Basically our trip was centered around two events:

    College World Series.
    The Zoo.

    Both were a blast.  Man, the CWS was nuts and so much fun.  Sure you had to park forever away from the stadium and walk [...]

    The Police

    Thursday, March 27th, 2008

    So the police are watching a house down the street. Or at least that’s what they told Carrie. Of course we’re not all that convinced. We think they might be watching us.
    And why wouldn’t they? We have constant traffic in and out of our house. We have semis pulling up [...]

    Quote of the Month - Carter Allen

    Thursday, March 6th, 2008

    So Carter and Caleb start soccer next week.  Carrie took Carter to get some shin guards the other day.  He asked what they were for.  “They’re in case someone accidentally kicks you in the leg…”
    After a momentary pause to think:
    “Do they make shin guards for my wee-wee.”
    Definitely the quote of the month.

    Tooth Fairy Mishap

    Thursday, February 14th, 2008

    Caleb lost his first tooth the other night. He yanked that sucker out with some dental floss and felt like such a big kid afterwards.
    We stuck it in his little Tooth Fairy box to set under his pillow. One problem, the Tooth Fairy forgot to put the money under the pillow and take [...]

    Move Over John Wooden, There’s A New Coach In Town

    Monday, December 3rd, 2007

    Caleb started basketball the week before Thanksgiving. We’ve had two practices and our first game was this past Saturday.
    Last Thursday I helped with practice as a volunteer. After practice the coach said he was out of town for the weekend and asked if I would coach on Saturday! (that’s what you get for [...]

    So You’re Saying There’s A Chance…

    Friday, November 30th, 2007

    I’ve often felt like no one will ever buy our house in Warrensburg.  I mean it’s been on the market since March and nothing, nada, zilch.   And this baffles our minds because it’s such a wonderful home.
    But yesterday we got a nibble and today someone is actually looking at our house!
    I’m cautiously optimistic.
    Pray with us [...]

    Carter excuse 900,000 for getting out of his bed:
    “My foot tickles.”
    What will he think of next?
