Today marked the official "end of summer". It certainly has flown by. I guess I can admit that I am ready to get back to the grind, but that attitude will probably only last a few weeks before I am ready for another break. Today we had what is known as "Block Party". This event, targeted...

i've been thinking lately that i'd like to watch more soccer, so i had the euro 2008 match on yesterday. to my utter amazement, my 4-year old watched nearly the entire match! she was pretty much tuned in, watching, commenting to me while i was out of the room. pretty funny stuff. she's also...
