Every guy deserves a little vacation with the boys. Over a month ago, they took their “mancation” to Mammoth to do a little mountain biking. If you only watch 10 seconds of the video, Todd wants you to know he is the one jumping in the very first shot. Watching the crazy stuff they do […]

The Baby already had his “Black Eyed Pea” costume, but the day before Halloween I decided he really needed to be Beavis. In the last two weeks he has developed this little laugh that sounds like “Heh, heh. Heh, heh.” If you’ve ever watched the show, you know what I mean. A little freezer paper […]
