We have started another house hunting binge this afternoon.  We believe there might be an opportunity for a good deal if we are willing to finish the deal before the end of the year.  That would really be nice.  We … Continue reading →

After our fellowship meeting yesterday morning, we went to a friend’s house for dinner.  On the way home after dinner, Kelly told us about a small event that she witnessed that we appreciated very much.  There was a little boy … Continue reading →

Well, I got up at 5:00AM this morning to go into work.  It was really not too bad.  I started early so I could get off early and be with the family.  I would really like to do some reading … Continue reading →

I had to work at my day job today (a Saturday).  It was mindless work running a bunch of samples through the machine we make to get ready for a big lab trial.  So I decided I would try to … Continue reading →

I have to work this weekend.  I am going in at 5:00 am on Saturday morning to help get ready for a big lab trial in December for which we need some preliminary data.  I hope to be home by … Continue reading →

October was a very good month for us in homeschool. It was a little bit disorganized because I have continued to stay very busy at work and so we have had to do some correction and make-up teaching on the … Continue reading →

We were really loaded up with trick or treaters last night. I bet at least fifty people came by. It was very fun. The kids got all dressed up. Christian’s costume was a particular big hit. He dressed up as … Continue reading →

We had a great evening yesterday with the Steljis family over from Charlotte. It turns out we read the same kinds of books and have a lot in common. The kids played games, carved pumpkins, rode the hovercraft, and generally … Continue reading →

Our good friends from the Charlotte area are coming for a visit.  John and Terrie and their three kids.  It should be a lot of fun.  Kelly and Christian want to go ice skating or something like that, but it … Continue reading →

We fouled up pretty bad on the Sunday, but other than that, we had a very nice weekend!  We arrived at the Sunday morning fellowship meeting at 10:15, but no one was there.  Lorena told me she had received a … Continue reading →

Last night Kelly and I spent a few minutes together to help her get the hang of her knitting a little better.  It is not that difficult to knit, but is difficult to knit well until you have practiced a … Continue reading →

Yesterday the kids finished their homework by about 2:00 PM.  Then, while Christian was at his guitar lessons, Lorena bought a bunch of knitting supplies.  Christian is pretty much the veteran knitter in the crew as he did a scarf … Continue reading →

Our Wednesday night bible study is in Revelation.  It is very, very interesting.  I had always known that in the early chapters, Jesus gave advise to the churches in Asia.  I even knew that he praised the churches for a … Continue reading →

Yesterday, my buddy John gave us a VERY cool soda bottle.  It has a marble in the top and has a very cool motif.  Ours was a nice pink color.  I took it home to Christian to see whether he … Continue reading →

Very, very cool, but Mom would kill us if we tried it. Click here.

We had a very nice weekend even though I had to work during much of it. On Saturday the kids went about an hour North of where we live to a get-together. Kelly and Christian both did something they had … Continue reading →

I am still at it. I got up at 4:Something this morning to come in with the idea that if I can get enough done, maybe I will be able to have half a day with the kids tomorrow morning. … Continue reading →

I am going to be stuck (I say stuck, but I love my work) working some long hours over the next week or so. We are trying to get our machine to work at a certain level, we have a … Continue reading →

I am in one of those stages at work where I will have to be burning the midnight oil again for awhile. I really do not mind doing that every now and then–really, I enjoy sinking my teeth into a … Continue reading →
