Sweet Daddy

Tonight my sweet Daddy is flying out to South Carolina to drive home to Texas with Finlay and me. He says it's because he doesn't want me on the road for two days by myself, but I think it's because he just wants some extra time with this guy. Here they are a few Christmases ago (circa 2006). What do you think? We can't wait to see you tonight Dad!

Nick's PRT on CNN

Hi everyone! I guess I'm making up for lost time with these posts. Barbara Starr has filed a report on cnn.com about Nick's PRT. You can see the video here:

You can see Nick at 1:51 into the video. You won't see his face, but you can see his left arm with a black wristwatch holding his gun. Enjoy the video!

Nick's Visit

Here are a few pictures from Nick's visit to Indiana last month. In this one, he and Finlay are enjoying a cool beverage in our Indianapolis hotel room. We ate at a really cool microbrewery. Good beer and good food!
This is where the Colts play.

The first time we ate there, PF Chang's comp'd us this gigantic chocolate cake. Yummm!

Finlay didn't want Nick to wake up and have to go to work.

We had our own in-room tailgate for college football on Saturday morning!

We ate at the Rib Crib with Nick's replacement team.

Nick got to ride go-carts with the new team he was training.

We had a great time!
