the G sides

This was taken by Thomas - our bud from Brazil - at Winter Park.
Major thanks to Grandad, Mame, and Big Tom. Skiing wasn’t great but the time together was awesome. This might be a good enough picture to avoid the dreaded Christmas family picture.
What do you think?

C: God’s our father, right?
G: Right.
C: He’s even your father, right?
G: Right.
C: He’s everyone’s father, right?
G: Not exactly. Only to those who want him to be their father.
C: Why wouldn’t you want God to be your father?
G: Good question…maybe because unlike earthly […]

Here are my notes from yesterday’s session.
Again - same disclaimer as last one. The first 2 pages are the front/back of a handout I gave. The rest of the pages are talking points, not a script of what was exactly said.

Here are my notes (WARNING: It is NOT a script of the class but rather talking points).

I’m glad that LSU finally lost a […]

We went skiing today. (Thank you Granddad and Mame!!!)
Yes, it was crowded.
Yes, there weren’t that many lifts or runs open.
Yes, it was a little chilly but not unbearable.
But not one time did I hear my kids say - “Ohhhh…I want that!”

Some pics of yesterday and the fried turkey experience. I used an Emril recipe - a cajun marinade and rub. Great flavor with a little kick. Thanks to Wayne’s great advice, there were no explosions or tense moments with a fire extinguisher.
The Schneiders are here from Brazil. It was […]

But today, we’ll hang out with the Smiths, the Schneiders (Brazil), and I’ll fry my first turkey.
I’ll post pictures and interviews with the fire department later.

After the MNF game last night…this is what I think I know.
Cutler and Young - if they stay healthy - will be the next Manning-Brady debate. Cutler is shaking off the rookie “What the heck was he thinking?” moments, VY is learning when to stay in the pocket to fling it (Titans - get […]
