These lessons provided to you by MusicMan, the adult (23) son. Background: In July while I was in Austin he threw a massive party at my house. Control was not maintained, police were called for a noise violation (as I had encouraged my neighbors to do), and a general mess was made of my yard... Continue Reading →
Week 0
Today's game didn't count in the standings which is why I called it Week 0. Also, I know the tradition is to use feet in the header up there, but I really loved that picture of the boys holding hands as a team right before the kick off. Mine is #55 over there on the... Continue Reading →

The blog look has changed with the feet of the entire team picture at top and the flickr... Continue Reading →
He’s Baaaack!
With more hair than usual AND he claims he wants to keep it! Just wants a trim to clean up the ears, but he is actually NOT demanding requesting a #1 buzz cut. We'll see how long it lasts after a few football practices with a helmet. Though, I must say, its been a totally... Continue Reading →
Only one thing on my mind today
SportsBoy home at 6:00pm today!!
One more time!
Of course this arrived in my in-box just after I finished that rambling nonsense below! HERE is the post for the day - THE picture of Admiral Von Schreiber which I just adored. It was his 'publicitiy' photo that they posted outside the auditorium the week of the play.I just love the look on his... Continue Reading →
