Erika and Eliza's Baby Shower!

Today we tricked Erika into thinking we were having a "wedding planning day" and did a little shower for her and the new baby to come, Eliza. We went to Baba Yegas (GREAT place for those who haven't been...) and ate, chatted and unwrapped presents - there is no better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than with your best girl friends! Erika was surprised, of course, because we are very good at surprises...besides, we knew that's the only way we were going to be able to do anything for baby #2 as far as showers are concerned. Had a blast - here are a few pics...




Have a great week everyone!

Confirmation Update

For any and all who are planning to come and support me as I make the transition into Catholicism on the Saturday before Easter (April 7th), just wanted to let you know that the service at St. Vincent de Paul starts at 8pm and will last approximately two hours... So, might need to plan accordingly - sorry it's so lengthy and late but this is the best time for them to do it and...well...it's kind of a big deal - at least for me, so I guess I don't mind the length that much. =)

Back Problems? Boy do I have a solution for YOU!

Just a note for everyone out there who's ever had back problems... Mr. Magnone has a genius product that has become an everyday part of our household. This product helps with all the back aches and pains that bug you throughout your days. Obviously this isn't a solution to those serious problems that some of you have out there (poor sweet Ruthie - it'll get better soon, it has to!)...but it is a great way to work out those knots and kinks in your back that accumulate daily from the crazy lives you all lead. You can use it sitting on the couch, driving in your car, sitting in an airplane seat, lying on the floor - it's great!



Check it out at www.thebackmedic.com - it's awesome!



And yes, Mr. Magnone (Marc's Dad) really did invent this product - patent it and everything - pretty cool, huh?

More Penguin Hockey Pics...

Booo Sabres - Jill, I didn't know you were a fan! We should plan a hockey road trip - seriously. I had that much fun... Here's some more fun pics from the Penguins victory on Tuesday.

Home from Pittsburgh

Had a great trip but am so happy to be home. Our last night in Pittsburgh was the most fun, by far - we went to a Penguins game (professional hockey, for those who don't know...) and I had a blast! For anyone who ever thought that our minor league Aeros and a major league hockey team had anything in common, think again... This place was awesome - the game was awesome - I am now a HUGE Penguins fan...bought a t-shirt and everything. =) Below are some pics - enjoy!


Penguins vs. Sabres

Hockey BABY!

Good times in Pittsburgh - Heinz Field Tour

We made it to Pittsburgh late last night - here for a visit with family and then my ISP Sales Conference... I was so happy to get outta town for a bit and have been looking forward to a great trip. Major props go out to my friend and co-worker Eric Ridgley for setting up a tour for us at Heinz Field - home of the Pittsburgh Steelers and PITT Panthers... We had a blast! As a geeky football fan, you know me - this was something I've been looking forward to for a long time. Anyway, pictures are below - check it out! By the way, YES there is a little bit of snow on the ground up here but NO that is not snow on the field... The field has been ripped up to be replaced for start of next season.




Sweet Heinz Field JumboTron - soon to be a Dacktronics machine...

Catching up...

Hi All - So sorry it's been so long. Usually I'm good about updating my blog but I haven't had much time and also, not much has been going on but work, work, wedding planning and more WORK. =) I'm happy to say that my responsibilities associated with UH basketball season are over (for the most part) and our last coaches show is Monday. All of that translates to mean - I might get to have a life outside of work - sometime soon...

Had a couple of fun nights "out on the town" over the past month - got to hang out with Jason and Jeff and Jen and Jill... That many J's always equals a good time. Check out the pics below. Had a great time everyone!




Jill pondering the meaning of life...or why Britney Spears went crazy...either way, great shot! =)



Girls just wanna have fun - see? =)


Fish fun - me, sushi and wasabi...what an experience...
