So a few weeks ago, Johanna’s brother Brian asked me to build him a computer. I had the whole thing put together, and it was running perfectly. My own media center was having problems with a netflix DVD that day, so I thought I would see if this brand-spankin’-new wicked-awesome computer could play it any better. Bad idea.
In late ‘09 my Christmas break was anything but a break. We re-tiled our bathroom, and have just finished putting in a new “Porcelain Altar.” It’s nothing astounding, mostly because Johanna wouldn’t let me get a High-Tech “Darth Vader Black” toilet, but hey, this one flushes and does it’s duty just fine. So for all those who I am sure are interested in how we’re dealing with all the crap that 2009 left us with…here ya go.
I’m sure you were all so…moved…by this. I have been.
Yesterday, we found a toy microphone while cleaning the house…and it led to a fun activity idea. I grabbed the camera, we set up a table and papers, and in no time we were filming “The Dodge Family News!” I doubt this will become a regular broadcast or anything, but the kids sure enjoyed it. A lot of fun. Here’s the low-quality version for online viewing pleasure.

We’re sure many of you are wondering why there are so few posts coming in here as of late. We may refer to it as the ‘Facebook effect’ – since the vast majority of our friends are on Facebook, a lot of the smaller updates go there, and the blog goes without updating. But every once in a while, we will get on here and post photos – because a lot of our extended family doesn’t do the whole Facebook thing, but they will visit the family website to see pictures of the kids. Hence today’s blog post. Read the rest of this entry »
A week or two ago, Johanna entered her Peach Pie into the County Fair, and won “Judge’s Choice” with it! She was so excited, and wanted me to upload the photos so that she could show everyone…
Well, now the time has passed by, and she still hasn’t said a thing…so I am posting the pictures myself. If enough of you comment, maybe she will tell the whole story on here. I wasn’t there, so I don’t have all the details. But I do have the delicious photos!
