So, I am not a fan of silly movies generally, but our friends talked enough about the movie Nacho Libre (and how much they loved it) that I eventually decided to watch it. Jen even did… mostly. 🙂 We watched it with them again this past weekend (at least, highlights of it) and it’s just…

Some Things Currently Distracting Me
Quite a Stanley Cup Final… with Detroit winning the first two by shutting out the explosive Penguins, and then the Pens winning game three on the back of two Sid the Kid goals! Great stuff. Should (hopefully) go seven. Phoenix successfully landed on Mars on Sunday and I have been intrigued ever since. The link…
Update from Greg’s Head
I must say this poor blog has been quite neglected for the past couple weeks. It seems that my writing certainly goes in cycles. Sometimes I have lots to say and just can’t help myself, so this blog is full of things to read. Sometimes I am so full of things to do that even…
One-On-One, Full-Court… Football?
This weekend we did get some pretty decent weather, despite a good bit of rain, and we took advantage of it! On Sunday afternoon, the boys and Kirstie and I headed up to the high school football field (just a few blocks from our house) and we found our way in through an open gate…
You Might Be A Large Family If…
Jen reads lots of blogs by other home schooling moms, and various other family-oriented blogs. She read a list to me from this blog the other night, and I thought it was funny in relation to one of my recent posts below, On Being Seven. I have not checked with the author about publishing her…
Only In Upstate New York…

On Being Seven
It’s late, and its snowing (which is awesome!) but I wanted to post a few thoughts on expanding to a family of size seven… Yesterday we all went out for the first time in our newly expanded van (see the next bullet point) and after taking nearly and hour and a half to get ready…
Quick Update
Looks like Sidney was probably right! 🙂 (more soon…)
Big Fun Food Day
For a little while now our friend Leah and I have been trying to plan a time for she and Scott and Jen & I to have a fun food extravaganza as a sort of “last hurrah” before they move to Maryland. Many obstacles have delayed the outing, and even made it seem impossible. But…
OK Night
I can’t remember now if I have posted this here or not, but it’s worth of a post (or two) for sure. A while back (I think it was for Kirsten the first time) we thought it would be a good idea for one on one outings with the kids. Usually it would be Dad…
