Well, they still haven’t sent me back my camera (they are waiting for a part). So since I don’t have any pictures, I thought I might fill everyone in on the wedding planning progress…We managed to pick out invitations. Of course, we can’t order them until we meet with the priest to make sure we…

… but don’t plan on spending a lot of time there! So as you may remember, I trekked down to Texas (San Antonio to be specific) this past week to go to a conference. As it happened, I arrived as a little early for the conference and found myself with a couple extra hours. I…

I’m on my way this morning to Texas (aka Bush Country) for a conference. This is a little nerve racking since I’ve never been down there and I’ve heard stories about what they do to Democrats;-) Hopefully they won’t try to convert me! I have been meaning to update my blog sooner, but I think…

I don’t know about anyone else, but Christine and I had already spent several million of the Powerball jackpot before they had even picked the numbers on Wednesday. Did anyone else experience that euphoric feeling of walking out of the store with a Powerball ticket? My heart was definitely racing thinking about how this little…

Well, after nine days of rain the sun is finally shining this morning! It’s nice to know that it’s still there. With all the rain, our activities have been pretty minimal. But there are lots of exciting things coming up! Christine and I are hopefully taking a day off this week to take a tour…

I finally managed to get a couple pictures off my somewhat broken camera. It was actually Christine’s brilliant idea to put the memory stick into our old camera and download pictures that way.

Apparently, I was the only person in Ohio not “in” on Christine’s little secret. Saturday morning after we arrived in Columbus she handed me an envelope, to which I responded, “Oh no… don’t tell me we need to look at wedding invitations too” (with a roll of the eyes). However, when I opened the envelope…

I was chastised by a regular blog reader for not posting recently (I won’t mention any names), but unfortunately she was right and I figured I should get my butt in gear. Christine and I are headed back to Ohio in a few days to do some serious wedding planning. We must be meeting with…

Those of you familiar with Pharmer Phil’s Garden know that it is quite famous for tomatoes, squash, and green beans. But this year Christine and I were allowed to add the bell peppers and spicy thai peppers to the mix… with much success I might add! The biggest surprise was how hot the thai peppers…

For those of you who don’t know, Christine and I both love football season. And even better than that we both like each other’s teams… Christine’s Ohio State Buckeyes and my New England Patriots. Thursday was an exciting night because it was the Patriots first game of the season. It is actually very fun to…
