Holiday Scrimmage, Part 2
It was a good reverse from last week. For this week’s scrimmage I played forward and got on the same line with Robb and Laurie. It was a blast! It was a great line and we played together really well. I think the opposing side only scored on us once while we were out (at [...]

With just a few days before the new year, I’ve been thinking about my goals for 2007. I use the word “goal” because a resolution seems to always be something that gets broken, whereas a goal seems more concrete and less likely to be cast off. Here’s a look at what 2007 holds for me:

Christmas Wrap Up
We had a great time Christmas Day. It was a nice, quiet day which is always a good thing for a holiday. We started off the day with a delicious breakfast. Will made scrambled eggs, sausage, white sausage gravy and homemade biscuits. We opened up presents. It was a very literary Christmas as we both [...]

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Everyone! We were out and about today enjoying some Christmas Eve activities. We started off taking a couple pictures in our apartment. Pretty obvious what these are–our Christmas tree on the left. We bought this a couple years ago at Urban Outfitters and just love it. Something about the tinsel with a minimal [...]

All Aboard Ark II
I was excited when I heard that Ark II was coming out on DVD. The series was part of CBS’ Saturday Morning lineup in the Fall of 1976. It was back in the days of live action children’s programming, in the same era as the original Land of the Lost and the Shazam/Isis Power Hour.

Ordinals Lose 12-5
The Wildmen lived up to their name last night, delivering a wild game to the Ordinals. The Wildmen have some good skating technique combined with a strong passing game that overwhelmed us in the early part of the game. As the game kept going, we figured out how to defend against it better, but it [...]

Dreamgirls!
An early Christmas present came this week as we found out that we won free passes to an advanced screening of Dreamgirls. We went tonight (conveniently it was at the theater just 5 minutes walk from our apartment), so we had the privilege of seeing it even before it opens it the limited roadshow release [...]

A Little Christmastime
Of course Christmas is everywhere in the city right now. Here are a couple of images captured tonight as we walked through the Winter Garden at the World Financial Center (yes, those are palm trees). Sorry the pictures are a bit fuzzy, they are from my cell phone, but I think you get the idea!
