(Deeta, deeta, deeta, deet) Deb and I had a busy Saturday. The girls have switched rooms. Of course, Deb and I did all the hard work. We even switched the ceiling fans, so the butterflies stayed with Veronica's room. The room over the garage is cooler than the other room, and Megan appears to have her father's circulation (as in poor type, one each!) Veronica is more like her Mom, always warm and wanting a fan on. So, this move makes sense. Hopefully Megan will stay warm, and Veronica won't have to close heater vents in her room to stay comfortable. We'll post some pictures later today.
On another note. Megan has uvulitis. We took her to the doctor yesterday. He gave her bedrest for the weekend and she has to follow up with an ENT next week. Poor girl can hardly talk. She sounds like a cartoon character.
On the job front. I had a dream I got laid off. I rarely dream, so Debie is alarmed. I've been alarmed. I've had a number of calls. I'm working a couple of prospects here in Indy, and I've got one working in North Carolina (this one is a GOOD one). It is a good thing I left Thomson though, they started laying off my former co-workers last week. I'll keep everyone posted.

Free photo software from Google
Hi gang,
Try out this software. It lets you post pictures directly to blogger. It also does a good job organizing photos and correcting levels. Oh yeah, it's also free.

Wow...Pacers beat Detroit
Even I was skeptical when the game began tonight. Since Detroit has the best record in the NBA right now, I figured they'd hand our young, injured team a tough loss. Not so. They pullled it off. I hope this is the beginning of better things. Here's the recap. Too early for the write up yet.

Thanksgiving '05
Mike, Debie, Megan and Veronica (Pepper too) made the trek out to Charlotte to spend Thanksgiving with us.
Here are the pictures of the trip we made to the Latta Plantation.
...as Mike said, "That is a whole lot'a house."

Two Ponytails
I styled Gizmo's hair in two ponytails this time. What do you think? Is one or two better?

First Black Eye
Luke was sitting in front of the television reaching for one of his toys and he fell forward into the entertainment center.
Here's Something Funny...
HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY? Answers by children ........
(1) You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming. Alan, age 10
(2) No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with. Kirsten, age 10
WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?
(1) Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then. Camille, age 10
(2) No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married. Freddie, age 6 (very wise for his age)
HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?
(1) You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids. Derrick, age 8
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MOM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON?
(1) Both don't want any more kids. Lori, age 8
WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?
(1) Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough. Lynnette, age 8 (isn't she a treasure)
(2) On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date. Martin, age 10
WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR?
(1) I'd run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns. Craig, age 9
WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?
(1) When they're rich. Pam, age 7
(2) The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with that. Curt, age 7 (3) The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do. Howard, age 8
IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?
(1) I don't know which is better, but I'll tell you one thing; I'm never going to have sex with my wife. I don't want to be all grossed out. Theodore, age 8
(2) It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them. Anita, age 9 (bless you child)
HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED?
(1) There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there? Kelvin, age 8
And the #1 Favorite is........ HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?
(1) Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a truck. Ricky, age 10

Slumber Party!
Bailey had a few friends over for a birthday/slumber party.
Somehow Jenny and I survived the wrath of thirteen girls (barely).

Artest
I disagree about Artest... I don't think he's a good person somewhere deep down. I think he's pure evil, and a traitor to Indianapolis and the NBA in general. Don't forget, his true calling was to become a rapper. He's a total flake.
Finally! Artest is gone!
I am so glad Ron Artest is finally traded(Story). Indianapolis has been more than forgiving, and willing to give Ron all the chances he needed. He has betrayed the fans, his teammates and the Pacers organization. I think Ron is a good person somewhere deep inside. I hope he wakes up and finds himself. I'm just glad he's not here in Indy any longer to disrupt the team's chemistry (and I hope it isn't too late). Mike.
The Banquet
Here's a couple of pictures from the awards banquet for Bailey and Dylan. Colin will post more later.
Who we are...
We are three brothers, all transplanted from Reno. Two of us live in Indianapolis now, one in Charlotte, North Carolina. We all have families, and the intent for this blog is for us all to have a place to share events and pictures of family happenings. So, there will be a number of us contributing to the blog. Enjoy!
