First off, thanks for birthday wishes and such... yes it's been that long since I've put anything in here. My goodness things have been crazy.
For starters, I'm going to mention my B-day. Em surprised me with a camping trip. It was wonderful. Tinfoil dinners, and orange cupcakes (made in an orange in tinfoil.) Campfires, tents and walks with flashlights. Noah's sharp eye for the moon. Perfect, just perfect. And I wasn't planning on doing anything for my 30th.
Big thanks to all those in SoCal who helped us in one way or another on our trip out there. Thanks for not taking our kidneys.
Speaking of, Disneyland was great, even without going on any of the blue ticket rides. Noah's shear delight thoughout It's a Small World and the Dumbo ride, paid for the tickets. Despite a broken toe, it was amazing. Also, Double Double Animal-style with a straberry shake. /drool
School is busy, and I'm enjoying it. I think one of my research reports is going to revolve around Albert Camus (nope, not an existentialist.) The other, I'm not sure yet. I'm heading up to UW-Madison next Monday, let's hope I don't make a total fool of myself.
Lastly, I must say I'm a rather lucky guy. I've got a great wife and son, wonderful family, great in-laws, and fantastic friends. Let's see how long it takes to write another one of these...

Glad you guys had fun at Disneyland. Maybe one of these years we will be able to plan a trip together. And now I'm craving a single with cheese- animal style. Thanks.
I'm sure we'll be able to time it together one of these years!
I am so amazed with how your little family has been holding up the past few weeks, what with all the craziness. I'm glad you had a delightful birthday- I know a lot of people make the 30th out to be a big deal, either in a good way or a bad way. However you look at the 30th birthday, I still think it deserves something special. I'm glad you got that unexpected special.
Out of curiosity, does this mean that you have decided on UW? Or are you still tossing the ball about before making anything final?
Good luck with your paper. I hope I get to see you guys sooner than Thanksgiving...
Ha! You and Damon have the same In-n-Out favorite! That makes me laugh.
Although, now I'M drooling.
I think I'll be changing my dinner plans now...
Mmmmmmm. Inn and out. Now I have to drive to Vegas..... haha. We miss you guys! Maybe one day we will venture out and visit you and your cute family. Phil says Hi Joe!
Hey... assuming the gap in time is because all your energies went into the holidays and your grad aps. Please hug and kiss Em and Noah for me til I get there...
