In a previous post about my dog, I mentioned how Sydney likes to sleep in our bed at night…with us in it. Never mind the fact that I bought her a nice and cozy bed online from Drs. Foster and Smith. We’ve tried different methods of trying to get her to sleep in her own [...]

I am a HUGE fan of Grey’s Anatomy. Tonight is the season premiere. Thus, I am one happy camper. I just love how realistic the story line is and watching an accurate portrayal of how real-life surgeons and surgical interns perform their job.

Hey kids! Today is Constitution Day, a day set aside to honor and celebrate the document that gives the American people life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. If you have never heard of Constitution Day, then shame on you – you may no longer call yourself an American. Just kidding. Congress just created Constitution [...]

Periodically I will post wedding pictures on the blog so friends and family can take a look. Now a days, a couple receives their wedding pictures back on a DVD, so it is a little hard to show the pictures to people who are interested in seeing them. This captures exactly how windy [...]

Our friends Kelly and Champ invited Jason and me to a UNC football game yesterday. The opponet was UVA, and though we were pretty evenly matched, we lost by two points. Our seats were not that great, so we decided to sit in the open seating student section. Five rows up from [...]
