Our team at work, team Jupiter, recently got together in Lisbon Portugal for almost a week to socialize and work together. This is our first meetup as a team and since the last company wide Grand Meetup our team has grown by four people so this was our first time meeting in real life forContinue reading “Jupiter in Lisbon”

All out in the open
Yesterday our home moved into a new era. One where none of the kids believe in things like the Easter Bunny, Santa Clause, and the Tooth Fairy. Just a couple weeks ago Jen and I had been talking saying that it likely wouldn’t be very much longer before Noah was questioning about these things. AsContinue reading “All out in the open”
Short Break
Today I had a few errands to run. On the way home I decided to grab a coffee and take a short break. It is a beautiful spring day so I pulled off the highway and spent a few minutes drinking my coffee with one of the best views around. There’s a little park inContinue reading “Short Break”
First Day of Spring
The first day of spring was technically a couple weeks ago, but today was the day Mother Nature seemed to get on board as well. It made a great day the sun was out and it was just about 20℃. The drive to pick up the kids from school was enjoyable, it made good breakContinue reading “First Day of Spring”
Avoidance
This morning Jen called our youngest Noah out to talk to him for a bit before school. The school library says he has a book out which is overdue but none of us can remember the name of the book and we aren’t able to find the book here in the house. She asked himContinue reading “Avoidance”
Evil or Genius
Not sure which places entered this strip mall first but someone is either a genius or evil. Maybe an evil genius. It consists of two restaurants, a breakfast place and a burger shop. Along with that is a chocolate store. So who thought a Weight Watchers along with these other places was a good idea?
Enjoying Snow
Most everyone who knows me knows that I’m not a huge fan of snow. Especially after this past week where we had two separate storms back to back with close to 3 feet of it falling. I’m over it. Shoveling the snow out of the driveway was an excellent workout but I’d much rather justContinue reading “Enjoying Snow”
Vegas Trip & Bruno Mars
Recently a bunch of the team leads in the Happiness division at Automattic got together in Las Vegas to learn together and work to ensure we are all working together. It was a very productive trip. I came back with things I can do right away and be better at my job, and feeling jazzedContinue reading “Vegas Trip & Bruno Mars”
Yellow Stripes
Sensei Logan presented Noah with yellow stripes on his belt as his first step towards yellow belt. He was pretty pumped and I was so happy to be there this week as next week I won’t be there.
Just For Laughs Gags
My kids have fallen in love with the show Just For Laughs Gags, and I’m so happy they have. It doesn’t matter the type of day I’m having, putting this on at night makes me laugh. If you’re not familiar with the show you should check it out. YouTube seems to have a bunch ofContinue reading “Just For Laughs Gags”
