Ethan and Ben have become big Sidney Crosby fans so I decided to look on the computer with them for some pictures to print out. What I discovered was a great way to print your own hockey cards or any other sports card. Here’s what I did. Go to a team website and find their [...]
A few months ago Heather and I had finally had enough of our old, lumpy bed. I was waking up with back pain so bad I had trouble getting into my car and we both were getting lousy sleep. I got out the measuring tape and found my side of the bed dipped 2 inches [...]
Whether he is shy, serious, goofy, gross or silly he is always cute and lovable!
I was on Fatheads.com to see how much a Sidney Crosby would cost ($100!!!) when I discovered some of the race cars are on sale for only $10. If you have a kid who is a big NASCAR fan these would be a great surprise. Just be warned that these Fatheads are HUGE (7 feet [...]

I have made my final selection of what chickens I want to order (although I won’t order them until March so technically I could change my mind). I heard back from Meyer Hatchery the same day I emailed them and they said that I can order ANY combination of chicks that I want! The minimum [...]
Our 2 upstairs bedrooms each have a large window box that my father built. Over the last few weeks Ethan has taken to sleeping in them. Heather came up with the idea of building these into a larger bed and this weekend we put the plan into action. The end results was a very quick [...]
We recently received 2 copies of The Rocket, by Palm Pictures. One copy for us to review and the other to give away in a contest. We watched the movie over the weekend and loved it. I’ll write a full review in a couple days. The contest, however, can start right now. First, here’s a [...]
I am starting to plan for getting 4-6 chickens this spring and I have found the breed I want. Most mail order places require you to buy at least 25 chickens but I can’t imagine going from zero to 25 birds all at once! I need to find a way to get a small number [...]
