Kid’s Vacation

by @ Saturday, March 31st, 2007. Filed under Family, Vacation

We drove Xander and Mira just south of Richmond yesterday and met my parents there. We moved the car seats over to my parent’s car and the kids went home with them. They’ve been very excited about this trip since we first planned it. It’ll be Xander’s second trip down there without us, and Mira’s [...]

WiigoBot

by @ Friday, March 30th, 2007. Filed under Games, Wii

We are pretty much addicted to Wii Sports around our house these days. All four of us are playing it on a fairly regular basis. One of our favorite games is bowling. So, I was pretty impressed when I came across someone who has built a Lego robot that can bowl a perfect game.

Normal Person vs Scientist

by @ Friday, March 30th, 2007. Filed under Funny, Science

Scientists, good ones anyway, are just different kinds of people. I think this comic sums up the difference quite nicely.

Object Oriented Conversion

by @ Friday, March 23rd, 2007. Filed under Internet/Tech, Programming, Work

I’ve been converted. For a long time, I really didn’t get into Object Oriented Programming. I was a procedural guy, and I was fine with that. I understood the basics of how to do OOAP, but it was never really my thing. Now I think differently. I took a class this week on Design Patterns [...]

Snow Totals

by @ Saturday, March 17th, 2007. Filed under Family, Weather

We got about 3″ of snow out of the storm last night. We went out this morning and got in some bonus sledding, which was a lot of fun. Then we took a little walk around the neighborhood to just enjoy the extra snow. We sure didn’t expect to have another snow in March, but [...]

Crazy Weather

by @ Friday, March 16th, 2007. Filed under Weather

I should mention that is was 80° and beautiful on Wednesday. Today it’s 32° and snowing. We are expecting between 2″ and 8″ overnight.

Teeth and Pins

by @ Friday, March 16th, 2007. Filed under Family, Sports

Xander’s second tooth came out today while he was at school. He saved it in the little bag we’d sent with him in case that happened. He was very excited. He also bowled 110 during PE at school today and won his match. He was very excited about that also.

Kingdom Hearts II

by @ Saturday, March 3rd, 2007. Filed under Family, Games, PS2, RPG

About 11 months later, we are done with Kingdom Hearts II.  It was an amazing game.  Playing only with Xander sure extended the amount of time the game took.  So did having to complete the Journal in order to see the “secret movie” at the end.  Like the first one though, it was worth the [...]

The Wii Rocks

by @ Saturday, March 3rd, 2007. Filed under Family, Wii

I love my Wii. It’s an awesome game system and we are all enjoying it. Xander and I have played countless hours of Wii Sports together. He’s started beating me in bowling now. All the Wii Sports games are a lot of fun though. My Dad and I played it for hours when they were [...]
