Tunkhannock Train Ride

Went with Pipa and Nana for a train ride tonight from Tunkhannock to the falls and back. Santa and Mrs. Claus made an appearance for pictures. It was pretty cool and we all had fun.

Bronze Hemlet

We did it! We beat Towanda on their own field and brought home the Bronze Helmet to Wyalusing! We didn't just beat them, we dominated them, 19-0. I'm so proud of this team ending the season the way we did with a record of 4-3. Shout out to Jordan who was our starting quarterback and had another pick this game at safety as well. I know it meant a lot to him, and to his team, and to us all. Excellent job boys!

Welcome to the lake, memories made here

Great time as always, wish the weather cooperated better before Sunday though. Even so, the boys didn't mind one bit. That was a pretty nice dirt track they had digging up the beach, the stones seem to make it more fun than the sand. And, of course, we got some "jess-skiing" in. Good thing I remembered my license!

Knoebel's was kfun

So, Jordan had some fun 'big guy' time away from the parents with Derek. That was cool as it left us 'Jesse time' to do the things we used to do with Jordan when he was that age. I'll admit, the frog hopper is pretty fun. Other than the same old stuff, my custom truck tent made its debut. It's a keeper.

Football

Looking forward to a great year, I'm completely stoked! 'Joe knows' football. Go Rams!

July 4th Party

Everything went off without a hitch. Better parking, better setup, better organization. After ten years of doing this we're finally starting to figure it out!

The Whole Nine Years

Jordan had his friends sleep over after his birthday party. Man, you're getting big, Buddy. Rain and I sat by the fire and just listened for a while. The things they come up with are something else. As they say, boys will be boys.

Welcome to the lake, memories made here

Still a bit early in the year for swimming, but no one cares at all. It always sucks to leave, but we'll be going back again. We must.

Karate Kids

The boys just finished their first Karate tournament in Scranton. It was a great experience for them and both of their katas were awesome.

Play Ball

Both of the boys started ball practice tonight and we just got the game schedules. It's going to be a hectic season, that's for sure.

Hockey

Went to the Hamilton Bulldogs at the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins match-up and couldn't have asked for a better game. We had a penalty shot, a fight, 3 t-shirts, were on the jumbo screen for a quick second and they won 5-1. Thanks for the night out, Mike and Melissa.

Monster Jam

Took the boys and Landen to the Monster Jam today (thanks again, Steve). The show was great, especially since their favorite, Grave Digger, was there. We stuck around after the show and got all the driver's autographs in their books and a couple pictures. It was cool talking with them for a quick minute. Looking forward to going to the 4 Wheel Jamboree in July!

High Five

Happy Birthday, Buddy! Too bad it's snowing and no one can make it to your party today. Oh well, we'll make it up this weekend. Who wants to go sledding?

Karate Kids

They boys got to each take a friend up to class tonight while the parents were told to leave for a couple hours. No need to tell us twice, so went out and had a nice dinner with the Hunsingers. It goes without saying, all the parents were pushing for this to be a monthly thing.
