Obama t-shirts on their way
August 23, 2008
A good friend and colleague of mine is in Denver this week with a group of journalism students covering the Democratic National Convention. I wish I were there with her. I e-mailed last night and asked if she could make a small purchase for Dana and I - Obama 08 t-shirts! She e-mailed this evening that she got the shirts for us today and they are gearing up for a busy week.

Friday Evening
March 7, 2008
Hi Everyone,
We have had a good week. The kids are getting along much better - Gabe and Grace still have their moments, but at least now and then it is a good moment.
We have a new invention that makes our lives a little easier. Our friends the Crowleys bolted together two kiddie gates to keep their dog out of the dining room. Since they don’t need it any more they gave it to us. One of our big problems is keeping Gabe from destroying the kitchen and then dragging his loot to the living room. Neither he nor Grace can get over it. If Gabe gets frustrated enough he will ram it and break it down, but most of the time it holds. I figure at some point he will completely destroy it, but for now we can at least cook in peace.
Here are some pics from the week.
Access to the kitchen - denied!
Hays Ice Storm
December 11, 2007
The ice storm of December 2007 has hit us. It started raining yesterday afternoon and went throughout the night. Jackson and Dana had no school today, but I had to go in this afternoon to listen to graduate student presentations (it is finals week at FHSU). Here are some pictures of the ice storm.
Our next door neighbor’s front yard.
Our front yard. I hope the wind doesn’t pick up!!!!
Atlanta - Georgia Aquarium
November 17, 2007
We’ve made to Atlanta and spent the day at the Georgia Aquarium and Centennial Olympic Park (right next to our hotel).
The pic of Jackson on the car - we just had to take! This is our rental car - a bright red Ford Mustang. We’ve made it back to the hotel room for some rest and then we’ll get something to eat this evening. Tomorrow morning we’ll hit CNN and take a ride on MARTA - Atlanta’s rapid transit subway system.
Hilton Head - will we ever get there?
July 19, 2007
Well, our day didn’t start out so well, and it hasn’t gotten any better as the hours tick by……
We were getting ready to leave the hotel this morning at about 8:30 a.m. when I decided to check on our flight status. Due to rain/thunder in Chicago, our flight to Chicago was delayed to 1:30. I called United to reschedule our flight to Savannah and we were set.
We got to Chicago at 3 p.m., with plenty of time for our 7 p.m. flight to Savannah. We walked over to the Hilton at the airport for a nice mid-afternoon lunch and then walked back to the concourse for our flight. We checked the screens and saw that they had moved our gate AND our departure time - to 8:15.
A few minutes ago I checked the departure time and now it has been bumped back to 9:15. We’re hoping that we do get to fly out of Chicago tonight and go to Savannah. One bit of good news, our home study is on its way to Hilton Head. Our social worker FedExed the home study this afternoon. Maybe it will get there before we do…….. hmmmm. Will FedEx ship a family of five?????
