My kids have finally talked me into going ice skating with them tomorrow. We are going to an indoor rink. When I was a kid we only went ice skating on ponds! I hope I don't fall a hundred times! I might want to attach a pillow to my butt!

My family went tubing at a ski lodge yesterday. We went with three other families. It was so much fun! There is a giant tubing hill and it is so fast! There is a pulley that you can hook your tube on and it pulls you back up the hill. Me, being a showoff walked it a couple of times! Today I...

My kids asked my wife what was for dinner tonight. I laughed and answered - leftovers! We have so many. We had two big meals on back to back days. Needless to say our fridge is stocked with all of the leftovers. I told them it's "fend for yourself night". They were pretty impressed!

I finally bit the bullet and bought my wife a Pandora bracelet for Christmas. I know she will love it. I can now buy beads for each holiday. Does your wife have one?

I need a new Blu-Ray DVD player and I have some questions. My old one is just a standard player. I see they now come with Wi-Fi built in. Why would I need to pay more money for this function? I heard it is so you can watch Netflix - we already stream movies on our Wii. Any other reason I would...

We finally got our Christmas tree put up and the house decorated. The kids like to help and it was the first time we have all been home. I thought we were going to have to do it without my youngest child.

Well we went and did it this time. With the loss to the Dolphins today my Steelers are out of the playoff hunt. What a sad season. It was fun watching them at training camp and at a game though.

I love apple pie! I love the holidays because of all of the desserts. What is your favorite pie? Do you like the main meal or the pies? I could deal with just eating three or four pieces of pie and skipping the turkey.

I have to admit that I'm addicted to this! I ate it for the first time this year and now I love it. I usually have a sandwich but I know there are other ways to eat it. What would you serve it on (pasta, rice, what)?

My daughter went to her Senior Ball on Saturday night. I think it is finally sinking in that she is graduating this year and will be moving out for college. Yesterday I made sure that we spent the whole day together (as a family). I would like to make sure that we do this every weekend...

I took my kids to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers play on Sunday. We sat four rows up from the field. I have to say that it was a great time. The only problem is they are hooked and now want to go back this Sunday! We live 5 hours from the stadium so we spent the night Saturday. I would love to go...

We went to my folks house today and celebrated my birthday. My mom always makes each of us a big dinner on our birthdays. I had ham! My kids went early and baked a cake. I love spending time with my whole family.

My daughter wants me to drive her to her friends house on Halloween. She hands out candy there. She is afraid if she drives on her own and parks in town someone will egg or shaving cream her car! I had to laugh at her.

Do you think they have what it takes to win the World Series this season? They are going into the series with the "Boston strong" attitude. I am a Yankees fan so I am not cheering for them.

This weekend my family is hosting a big party. We have invited neighbors, family and some friends. The kids are pretty excited! They even got to invite some of their friends. It will be our last outdoor party of the year.

Holy cow my wife just told me that we needed to start shelling out money for my daughter. Her ball (senior) is in November. Of course she needs a dress, shoes, hair done, nails too and who knows what else. I told them I needed a second job to pay for it all.

This weekend we are cleaning up our yard. I know it's going to be a blast! :eek: The kids are already complaining about it. They get to help pick up sticks, branches and leaves. I have to help my wife cut down the dead flowers and rip out the rest of the garden. The only good thing is Sunday...

So technical I know! I swear I am going to gag on that thing that hangs at the back of your mouth. I am so sick and that thing is super long! Know what I am talking about?

I am taking my daughter to test drive a car today. It will be her first car. Wish us luck! We have been looking for close to a month and finally found one that we really are interested in.

Anyone have a recipe for hot pepper relish? I had some on my hamburger last night and it was great. I have hot peppers but what else do I need? I want to try canning some.
