Dwight Has Unmoved

After a year of paying Apple to host my blog, I am back to the realm of free posting. Cash wasted, lesson learned.

My return to the blogspot comes on the heels of our return from vacation. We left the computers at home and spent the week on Mackinac Island and in Traverse City. I have to say I didn't miss the constant connection to the world. I was able to relax and enjoy my family.

Jenny (and obviously Elisabeth) had never been to Mackinac Island and I had not been there since I was around 12. I was shocked at how much fun I had. Of course, spending the week with my beautiful wife and daughter would make anything worth while but I thoroughly enjoyed the faux, touristy history of the island. We hit all the required spots, lots of shops, good food, a horse drawn carriage ride and a bike tour (cut short by Elisabeth's extreme dislike for the helmet).


So it's good to be back (on both counts). Look for more updates in the weeks to come as my life slows down a bit. It's been a busy spring and early summer and I'm looking forward to slowing down for a while.

Dwight Has Moved

The blog has moved to our new family website.

2 Things - Just for You

# 1 - I think this is my favorite commercial of the year so far.

# 2 - I was looking through some old blog posts and I realized that something has been missing lately.  

So, without further ado:

Here's some more inappropriate Top Gun beefcake.  You're welcome.

Dwight Got a New Toy

So our camera broke last week.   You can't have a baby without a camera, right?  Right.  So Dwight bought a new camera.  We put it to good use tonight when we went for a walk after dinner.  These, my friends, are the first flowers of the year!  Hooray for Spring.

While we were walking, a couple of kids walked by with their dad and one of them asked "Is she pregnant or what?!?"

Thankfully Jenny has a good sense of humor.  She sure is cute though aint she?

But we got to have a nice walk on a gorgeous day.  Here's a few pics we took along the way.

Back To The 'Ville!

Well, it's official.  Jenny and I bought a place in our old stompin' grounds.  We are heading back to the land of Phil's Pizza, Bradford White water heaters and mediocre sports teams saddled with unrealistic expectations by townfolk wishing to relive past glory.  Plus, it's a "Cool City Neighborhood" so it's got that goin' for it.

So here's a couple of pics of our new place.  It's a moderate sized mobile home, nothing special but it's ours.  Big thanks to Mr. V for helping us out in a tight spot.

There will of course be an open invitation for any who would like to stop by and visit.  We look forward to hosting all our friends!
