Music Wednesday: It Won’t Be Like This For Long

I found this song recently even though it’s a few months old now (it was released in February 2009). It’s from the latest solo album from Darius Rucker (Hootie!!) which is actually a country album. I’ve always found Hootie’s stuff very relatable and this song is no different. Anyone with little kids, or even big [...]

Henry, Hoopty’s and the Big Red Car

We spent the weekend with our friend Ari and Amber and their two sons Harrison and Elijah. We had a blast. We took the kids to Six Flags The Great Escape on Saturday and boy was it hot. I know Dylan had a blast jumping on all the rides and then making it over to [...]

Music Wednesday – Stuff I Don’t or Wouldn’t Like

Project Playroom

Work has begun on what I would like to call “Project Playroom.” When we moved into our house almost 4 years ago, we had a room in the basement that someday we knew we’d like to do something with but there were a few problems with it. Issue number one, the house ran on oil [...]
