Jonathan Franzone Well, I’m feeling great! And a little sore… and tired. I just completed one of the goals that I made for myself for this year in running, by completing the 2009 Pensacola Double Bridge Run (15k). It was a very early, dark and cold morning (not too cold).

Traveling Without the Kids Aubrey and I went up to Wisconsin this past weekend to visit with my sister and see their new baby get baptized. We left our three children with Aubrey’s parents and my parents helped some during the days. We had a really great time and it was the first time in …
Over the past month I’ve gotten some short video clips of Avery reading. So I finally threw them on the ole iMac and put them together in a video so show the world! Here it is. * Click through to the site if you cannot see the video. коли под наем
Here are just a few pictures that I took of Avery playing at the front door. It’s so cute when kids smash their little noses against the glass and look in at you. Here’s just another cute shot of my baby girl. She’s growing up so fast! You can head over to our Family Picture …
This was actually the first year that we have carved a face in a pumpkin. The really neat thing about it was that we were also all together: me, Aubrey and all three kids. We had a great time. Aubrey and the kids picked out the pumpkin while I was still working. After dinner Aubrey …
