This year I had a Father's Day I'll never forget. I'm too fried to write it out in long form, but here are the highs and lows:

Hey this was cool - I was interviewed by Websiteplanet about:

If you know what movie this is from (without cheating!), we are MBFF s (Movie Best Friends Forever).

Aim and Cam hit up a pet store a few days ago. The way the visit went down, according to Cam, is that he was

Well today was a joy/poop show. Lets start with the bad:

Well this was fun....I came home one night this week to find our dishwasher looking like this:

As I'm (hopefully) winding down this bout with COVID, I'm excited to start my second season as a dad and dancer this month.

Rolling into day 3 of COVID, my wife and I have been comparing side effects.

Let me be clear: COVID has not been fun and I'm not making light of it in any way. The Mrs.

Last year, after my wife's Facebook account was hacked (and recovered - read about that here) we had two scary realizations:

Today was fun - and a little frightening. I would have been all set to start my level 2 skill set after testing out of level 1

As Napoleon Dynamite would say, "YUSSSSSSSSSSS!" I did it! I passed my level 1 set of flight skills!

Today was a beast! For the first time ever, I flew 15 minutes in one session (chopped up into chunks of 1:30 I believe)! It wasn't my idea, though.

I'll probably say this a lot in this blog series, but today’s visit was my favorite so far. Why? A few reasons!

Welp, I’m still absolutely loving playing Smash Drums as a way to relieve stress.

Such a fun flying session! This time I went with my boys again.

Welp, I’m a member of a gun club now. This is a sentence I never thought I would write at this age, if ever.

In my 2022 to focus more on play in my work/play balance, I picked up a fun game for Oculus Quest 2 called

Today’s session was really challenging. In addition to focusing on my side slides (the last skill I have to conquer before moving on to level 2), I...

This visit was extra fun because I brought a buddy with me, who had flown once many years ago. We also flew with a group of first-timers.

Oh yeah! Another super fun visit with little improvements. I feel like this whole flying thing is starting to click!

Oh yeah! After having a pretty sucky last set of flights, I felt I was in much better flying form today! I had a new trainer today, and I always love...

Well, I hate to use PG-13 language, but if I had to give this iFly session a nickname, I’d call it iSucked.

My two sons loved their iFly journey so much, they’ve been asking if we could all come back as a group and do it again.

Oh my goodness. I just had the best iFly session yet!

Well, after dreaming about getting my body positions down better so I could fly more independently, I signed up for another round of three flights at

Well, my wife has created an expensive, flying monster - actually, three of them.

Just two days after my first iFly adventure, I went back for more! I found out that the 10-pack of rides I purchased during my first visit has to all...

At the end of December, my wife announced she was taking me out for an early birthday surprise.

My wife and I recently celebrated an important "gotcha" day - specifically, the anniversary of adopting our first child, but also the memory of two...

As a closing-in-on-40-year-old, it's weird (to seemingly just about everybody but me) that I had never been to Las Vegas until just a few weeks ago.

Lets start by having you take a look at this foam pit we rented for my sons' birthday party:

Ok so I'm probably getting worked up over nothing, but during the eclipse last week, my truck's backup camera ceased to function.
