We’ll be swimming by the weekend.
We’re Getting There
Amazing progress after one week. Now we’re just waiting on the concrete crew and the gas man to connect the heater for the hot tub.
We’ll Be Swimming Soon!
I never thought we’d have a home with a pool, but it looks like it’s really happening. Check back in about 10 days for pictures of the pool.
Costume Contest
Matthew won second place in the infant to three year old costume contest at the Pumpkin Festival yesterday.
Halloween Party
We had a great time at Matthew’s classmate Layla’s Halloween party this evening.
Guess What We Got
Friday evening we stopped into Wal-Mart to pick up a few things. (Yes, we’re old married folks. I’m sure you were partying on Friday night.) I went by the electronics department just like I’ve done at least 100 times in the last few months.
Only this time, something was different. That empty space above the price sticker for the Nintendo Wii wasn’t empty. There was a big white box there, with the word Wii on it. I stood guard while Paige went to find an employee. As he approached I said “Is that a Wii?” “Yes,” he replied.
Things get a little fuzzy at this point. I remember pointing to the box, then pointing to our shopping cart… My spirit left my body for a while, but luckily returned in time for me to swipe my debit card… Now I’m the proud owner of a shiny new Wii.
So if you happen to drive by our house and notice us jumping around the living room like crazy people, we’re probably just playing with the Wii. Come on in and join us. All we have right now is Wii Sports, but I’m sure that will change soon. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess looks great, as does Mario Party 8.
Happy Thanksgiving
Time is still flying by. Hopefully things will slow down one of these days.
Here’s a picture of me and Matthew just about to doze off after filling up on turkey and dressing at Grandmother’s house:
It’s hard to believe that he will be two years old this time next month.
Happy Halloween
Here’s Dr. Matthew from Halloween night:
I think he has enough candy to last until next Halloween. I’m sure I can help him eat some of it…
Weird Al
This might just be my new theme song:
That’s “White & Nerdy” by Weird Al.
Age Jim Morrison Enters Another Door
So far this month, 48 people have come to this site after searching for “Age Jim Morrison Enters Another Door” on Ask.com.
It’s funny, I’ve seen all of the new commercials on TV for Ask.com and I actually thought about trying it. Maybe it really is better than Google? After seeing these results, I’m not so sure.
This site is actually the number three result for that phrase. I guess I should be honored, but I’m not exactly sure why. There’s only one reference to Jim Morrison on this site – my post about the 10th Anniversay of Kurt Cobain’s death.
So if you’re here looking for Jim Morrison, I’m afraid I can’t help you. The last time I saw him he was walking in the desert with Wayne…
