  • Left Turn, Clyde

    When you think of a redneck, one of the things that ultimately pops into your mind is NASCAR. Lots of guys racing around constantly making left turns. Yeah, lots of excitement. So with that mind, we ventured last Friday down to Richmond to see the NASCAR Busch Series Funai 250, and you know what? It…

  • Birthday Wishes…

    …go out to our friends, Tanya, Mike, and Bucky. Happy Birthday, guys! (I know it’s not as big as Monica’s birthday wish, but she is my wife. :p)

  • When I am not around….

    I left for Chicago last Thursday a little apprehensive as to what might happen at one of our most hectic meetings of the year. Although, the meeting was in fact really hectic and tiresome, I cannot believe everything that happened to everyone I know while I was away. As soon as I get to Chicago,…

  • Fireworks and Friends

    We headed down to Palmyra (just outside of Charlottesville) to hang out with some friends for the Fourth of July. Thanks to the Samples for hosting the shindig and proving some good eats. We grilled some food, drank some beers, and had a good time; we even had a rousing discussion about health care, terrorists,…

  • Hulk Smash!

    I forget to mention yesterday that we saw The Hulk. Monica totally did not want to see it and was convinced it was going to suck, but I “twisted her arm”. So maybe she was right. I mean, it was a decent movie, but I don’t think the acting was very good (what was Nick…

  • Typhoon Concert

    So we were invited to an Emmy Lou Harris concert last night by our friends, Mike and Laura and also joined by Steve and Amy. Country folk music hasn’t been our style of music in the past, but we decided to broaden our horizons and give it a shot. It was surprisingly good. She has…

  • Memorial Day Fun

    So we’re heading out of town this weekend, making the trek down to Hampton Roads to see some family and friends. We were originally going to the beach on Saturday, but the weather doesn’t look as if it’s going to cooperate. 🙁 But we are going to Busch Gardens with our friend, Bucky, on Sunday.…

  • Hawaii Bound

    This message is to wish our friends Mark and Lorena a safe trip. Today, they start their long drive to Oklahoma to visit family before heading to Hawaii where they will be stationed for 3 years. Mark is in the good ol’ Air Force. I miss them already, but look forward to seeing them when…

  • Weekend Update

    Well, I have to say that Brian and I had a great weekend. We shoveled lots and lots of dirt Saturday while helping our friends, Mike and Laura, landscape their backyard. You might wonder what’s so great about shoveling dirt. Well, while shoveling I was NOT DOING ANY WEDDING STUFF!!! Don’t get me wrong, I…

  • The Easter Fairy?

    We received this picture from our friend, Kim, today, and we love it. We’re not sure there’s such a thing as the Easter fairy, but if there is, we don’t think it could look any cuter then this. Happy Easter, Katie!
