Wow, that sounds ominous, and it is in a way. We'll no longer be posting to this blog. But don't fear we have started a new blog at www.jltiger.com . This site will remain online for a time while we migrate the posts and photos to the new site. All...
Well, if you couldn’t tell it was a much more relaxed June for us.  Baseball and T-ball both ended, and school is over. Both boys had their respective banquets at the beginning of the month. We celebrated Bupka’s birthday, Father’s Day and took a quick...
We found a tree to climb, then lost Louie in it, then we found him again.
Louie went to Cub Scout camp this week at Andrew Jackson State Park. One of the activities was Target Shooting with a bee-bee gun. To earn a badge he needed a score of 35+ on five shots. Louie needed only four shots.
Everyone who talks to Louie and Matt should know they are huge Beatles fans. What you may not know is that so is Sarah. We got a Wii and Beatles Rock Band for Christmas this year, and she has been practicing ever since.  
For the past few years we’ve been keeping you up to speed with the Dare-Devil and his reckless sidekick Fearless . Like any good movie trilogy, for the third installment, we’ve added a new character to the plot, Little Miss Mischievous. As usual it all started...
Matt finished up his first T-Ball season tonight.  Matt has been chomping at the bit for the past two years while Louie played soccer and t-ball.  When I coached the soccer teams Matt was able to hang out at the practices and occasionally get into...
Both boys were playing sports this month. Being Matt’s first sport season of any kind we really had no idea what to expect. Growing up I remember my parents encouraging each of us the “play our own sport” And I think going forward we may have to start encouraging...
Louie finished up his first season of Baseball today. Louie and the team started off pretty slow. They lost the first 3 games (4 if you count the jamboree) and Louie didn’t get a hit until the third game. But the team came alive and we ended up winning 7 of...
April was crazy busy…and then T-ball & Baseball started. Sam & Susan welcomed Taylor Brooke into the family on April 1st. Easter provided several photo opportunities. There were several Easter egg hunts ( school & church ), Easter egg coloring...
March may have well been Cub Scout month for us. The Tiger Cubs went to Lean TV for an outing.  While there they learned to use the various equipment and put together their own TV show. Louie’s first pinewood derby is chronicled here. And there are more...
Tonight was the much anticipated Pinewood Derby ! Several times over past month it seemed like tonight would never get here.  The past few weekends have been spent cutting, sanding, weighting , painting, and polishing various parts of the car.  Louie...
After a quiet January we found plenty to do in February. Snow at the end of January prevented us from going to the Circus in Charlotte, but nothing could stop us from catching up with the show in Columbia . Every one enjoyed the show, even Sarah was seen clapping...
Matt woke up to Birthday (by the Beatles) blaring through the house on his birthday.  I’d never seen a kid go from sound asleep to full out dance party so quickly.  We had his party on Saturday.  If you couldn’t tell it was a football themed...
Louie was awarded with his Cub Scout Bobcat Badge at the Blue & Gold Banquet.  He is the only Tiger Cub to earn their Bobcat so far. To earn his Bobcat badge he had to learn several things including the Cub Scout Promise and the Law of the Pack. ...
