monday: prepping for 10 years

it was a whirlwind.  i had today off, so instead of one long post, i wrote one for each day below… i’m too tired to try and write well, so it’s mostly a journal. there was a huge photo update with all this as well.
this upcoming friday is kara and my 10 year anniversary.  we [...]

saturday: the pre-party prep

  
24 beers.  that’s how the evening ended…
it began with marc, harrison, nicole, todd and tyler showing up to hang out in preparation for our small party on sunday — the official meet little man harrison party.  we can detail that in the next post.
anyway — we hung out in the backyard and todd, marc and i [...]

friday: the fair

  
i, of course, had the day off to celebrate our country’s birthday — you know, when we drove the evil english off our shores while we also handed out blankets to the indians. go team! anyway… there’s a fair in marin county that we decided we’d take owen to and then hit the fireworks.
nothing about [...]

owen got baked…

 
owen made cookies today. he wasn’t as excited as we were hoping he would be. he knows the word ‘cook’ and he knows the word ‘cookie.’ so, when you ask him if he wants to cook cookies, he looks at you all funny-like and gets confused.
of course, he hears, ‘cookie’ and runs [...]

sequel update

back from my world tour…

…so… i’m back in town now.  in the past 7 days, i’ve been to prague, brno, london and baltimore.  it’s been a lot of airline flights  over the past two weeks.  i’ve never been afraid of flying before, but after owen came around, every time the plane jiggles a little bit, i have this fear [...]

beer… er… daddy juice.

so… this is awesome. kara is craving beer. to understand kara’s relationship with beer, you have to go back to college. she hated it. and i mean wouldn’t kiss me on the lips hated it. even the fruity beers that sam adams used to make. she hated those too.
what’s [...]

the quiet of a sunday morning

kara is asleep.  i took a minute to test out our new coffee machine.  it does all the work for you.  all you do is put whole beans in and set the brew strength to “apocalyptic” and off you go.
owen woke up with a whimper.  kara poked me with her foot and said: “didn’t sleep.  [...]
