IN THE BEGINNING…. In the beginning, God created heaven and earth. He was challenged immediately with a class-action suit for failure to file an environmental impact statement. At last, He was granted a temporary permit for the project, but soon was handed a cease-and-desist order enjoining Him from creating on earth. At the government hearing,… Continue reading Creation: Committee-style
American Idol: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly
Let’s cut to the chase, shall we? The Good:          The Bad: Okay, so she wasn’t BAD, but I did NOT like her rendition of “Proud Mary”, and she is becoming more and more arrogant each week…thinking she can pull off these big songs, and even imitating Tina Turner’s dancing! No, no,… Continue reading American Idol: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly

Do you SALSA?
Yesterday being Cinco de Mayo and all, I decided to celebrate by posting some great salsa recipes. However, due to it being Monday and having to deal with unexpected little crises like Peekaboo throwing up IN MY SHOES, I wasn’t able to sit down to organize my thoughts into even a somewhat-coherent passage. So, despite… Continue reading Do you SALSA?
Flying Solo
That pretty much sums up this weekend. You see, Matt was on a Men’s Retreat with McFBC folk at Pine Cove in Tyler. They left on Friday afternoon and returned on Sunday afternoon. Nearly 48 hours of testosterone, bodily emissions, and cholesterol-laden food. Yup, he had a great time. You can read all about it… Continue reading Flying Solo

This just cracks me up
Yesterday we played hooky from church, using the “it-was-a-late-night-when-we-had-to-drive-back-from-the-campout” excuse. So what did we do to fill all our free time? We went SHOPPING! I won’t bore you with all the details, except to say my “I hate Wal-mart” stance was reconfirmed. Then we went to Costco, where Matt discovered a really cool doggie bed. … Continue reading This just cracks me up
Life…as we know it
This was supposed to be a post about Crisana’s 5-year portrait session yesterday, but Searsphoto.com has not uploaded our session yet. I was going to write about how the Mavericks and Rangers both finally won last night, but I know most of my readers a) either know that already, or 2) don’t care about sports.… Continue reading Life…as we know it
