Today at Jacob’s skating lesson Violet continued her quest to get on the ice. I’m thinking we really need to find her a pair of skates.
Project 365-289: Growing Mound of food.
I snapped this picture of the growing mound of food at the Weight Watchers Applewood Village Plaza location, part of the Lose for Good program. It’s growing every week, they are trying to collect a pound of food for each pound lost over 7 weeks. That could be a lot of food. For anyone wondering, I have …

Today Melissa and I popped into Old Navy looking for a new running shirt. While there we noticed the jeans were on sale, so I thought I would try on a pair. The surprising thing I found was that my waist was down to a 34, back in august I was inspired when I picked …

Project 365-284: Giving of thanks
Today was Thanksgiving day so our family had a small dinner. It was a great success. There were a lot of things we did a little differently this year. The first was we backed our own Apple pie for desert, with Violet’s nut allergies we just don’t trust most bakeries. We also tried a new …

Mobile Monday: Tricorder
Today we take a quick look at one of the sillier apps on my phone, Tricorder. It seems fitting on this holiday Monday to have a simple and fun app. I’ve had a Tricorder app for every PDA I’ve owned, though this is the first one that actually does any Scanning. All it does is …

Project 365-283: Calm before the Storm
Tomorrow is our family Thanksgiving dinner. We’re not having a big affair, just our little family and my mom and Niece. We didn’t want it to be to big this year, but still feel that we should be celebrating the holiday. So in preparation for eating entirely too much tomorrow, and having eaten too much …

Project 365-282: Party Girl
Today we spent the afternoon at a friends daughters first birthday party. It was a great day for a party and the kids even got a chance to play in the backyard. Not something usually expected for an October party.
