After 28 years, the Phils are the World Series Champions. It was great watching it with Jake, Abby, and Jean, and I can’t help but think of my Grandpop through all of this. He would have loved this. It’s hard to believe I was the same age as Abby the last time the Phils won [...]

To add to the confusion, [...]

In the three years of Abby playing travel soccer, this was the one tournament that eclipsed all others in regards to the amount of time it took up. We left the house around 6 pm Friday night, and we [...]

In an amazing set of circumstances, the US Postal Service and the US Government managed to get our passports processed in record time.

Saturday was a busy day in the house, and we were all going in different directions. It took some planning and a little bit of help from others to make it all happen, but we got it done.

For some reason, the kids had a day off from school on Friday. It was a bit of a scheduling nightmare because Jean had already made plans to spend part of the day observing one of her fellow Neumann classmates teaching his class.
Jake spent Thursday night at his buddy Patrick’s house for a sleepover and [...]
