momandkids Originally uploaded by theoakmonster. Here’s the picture of us at the hospital the day before I left. That’s my oldest brother on the left and the middle one on the right. She’s looking pretty good, y’all. Like I said, if she could yell at me to hang up the phone when I call to talk to her because I was wasting money, she’s doing swell. 🙂 And here’s one of my brother and his wife with mom. (My sister in law is soo pretty!)...

Yes. The Trojans beat Nebraska Cornhuskers to pulp yesterday 28-10. We didn’t have a good start to begin with, and on the 3rd drive of the game, this happened. Surely an injury that ends this season. Please all wish Ryan Powdrell the best. And pray for the Trojan offense to shape up after such loss.

Tonight, I had a margarita and one BIG, FAT carnitas taco. Have I mentioned that I LOVE PORK? Especially bacon. And carnitas. And crispy skin roasted suckling pig. And Thai 3-layered crispy pork. And baby back ribs. This Saturday, we are going to a Pig Party where there will be one big pig roasting over open fire. Gotta love the Greeks! Or Filipinos??? (Hmm….Lechón…) Wait, don’t the...

Sometimes you just take things for granted. From this past few days, I have come to appreciate many more things. Here’s the list, not in any particular order. 1. How much fun it is to get into a large box or a plastic storage tub. Exhibit A Exhibit B 2. Even more fun than that is once inside a large plastic storage tub, your friend pushed you at high speed down the aisle in the middle of WalMart. See Exhibit B. With big ol’ Erik behind it. Oh I wish Brandon had a video capture on his phone! 3. Pixie...
