Kevin got his braces put on today. I watched the whole process. It was interesting. He said it wasn’t a big deal. At first he said it didn’t hurt at all but by the time we got home, one place in particular was bothering him. He took some Motrin then crashed on the couch. He [...]
Here are pictures of our dinner cruise on the Portland Spirit.
This week we’ve been busy as usual. My sister and her family stole Melissa and Casey away for a getaway at the beach so we just have Kevin and Cody till Tuesday or Wednesday. Kevin gets his braces on first thing tomorrow morning. It turns [...]

Anyway, at least the archives work now. Don’t ask me what [...]

Nevermind, I’ll SHOW ya…
Unfortunately, we were not real happy with Cody’s new do. So we took him to have it “fixed”. The sides and front were also “re-styled (aka chopped to all heck)”. Here it is now (after the *real* hair stylist fixed [...]
