Macbuntu

Yup, finally got Ubuntu on the old (5 year old) Macbook Pro.  In fact, I am using it right now.  It has made an unusable Mac usable again!

New Vibram Day

Wanted to do more trail running, and possibly run the Falls Lake 12 Mile Trail Run in April with Kerry.  Tried running in my regular Vibram, but all the rocks, roots, and such made me walk the majority of the time.  Enter Vibram Treks.  Got them for 1/2 off...lots of tread on them, and the mesh covers my foot.

Hockey Night in Raleigh

 Got some last minute free tickets Thursday, so Kerry's dad and I got to the Canes game.  Good game, they ended up beating Vancouver for a hugely needed win.  Pretty sweet seats too, 107, row Y!

Louisburg Christmas Parade

Last week I served as a parade organizer through the County's Chamber of Commerce that I serve as Director on.  Pretty neat--seeing how things are organized on this end.  I was very surprised at all the horses, including this one!

Happy Birthday, Kerry!

My wife turned another year older, or another year wiser I will say.  I am blessed to have her in my life as wife, mother of my children, and best friend!

Skating Downtown

Never had the chance, until yesterday, to skate in a Downtown outside.  Yesterday, that changed, as we went to the Downtown Raleigh Winterfest and skated outside, in the shadows of skyscrapers.  So much fun!  We had not been skating since two years ago, I believe, so this was a lot of fun.  Girls did good, picking it up pretty quickly!

December Is Here!

As you can see--Christmas is on the way.  The girls decorated the wagon recently.  We are heading in to the only time we really use the wagon--all our night 'Christmas Light' walks!

Field Trip Dad

Went to another field trip with Lucy.  This time to Marbles.  As you can tell in the picture--lots of monkeying around.  It was so cute--two of the girls in my group are twins, and Lucy was in between them, holding hands everywhere we went!

Of course I liked the new additions to the Hurricanes ice rink--scoreboard and sound effects--including "Rock You Like a Hurricane!"
