It's Beginning To Look Alot Like Xmas































































Welll, as you can see, we have been keeping busy. We had some great weather, so we did a some hiking at Umstead State Park. The weather is now cold and rainy. We also did some bowling and put up our xmas decorations. The big news is that The Skateboard Kid "3" has finally been released. Please click here to view.

Gobble, Gobble, Gobble

















Happy belated Thanksgiving to all. We hope everyone had a great day. We had a nice day. We just stayed at our house and had one of our friends over. The weather was great, the food was fantastic, and the kids had a good time. The ladies did a great job cooking. Everything (including the turkey) turned out great. Even though we are down here in NC, for a few brief hours we still get too feel like we live in Michigan and the old times. What am I referring to you ask? I am referring to the stinkin' Lions. Some things will never change.

Sunday Hike






























Here are a couple of pics from our hike at Jordan Lake this morning. We found a cool bald eagle's nest. The boys have been skateboarding all day and "The Skateboard Kid 3" is currently in production. Watch for upcoming movie times.

Relivin' Old Glory Days!



When I was going through all of my hockey equipment trying to find stuff for the boys, I stumbled upon this prize possession. Brings back some memories. Jamie keeps calling me "Uncle Rico", but I think being a hockey stud is the reason she fell for me in the first place.

The video is of the boys in the garage. Justin got some new skates for hockey season and they have been testing them out. It reminds me of me and Pat. Justin is almost done with basketball and is going to start roller hockey in January. He is super excited. Owen is doing great and having a good time playing hockey. I am still having a lot of fun coaching. We had a heartbreaker of a loss last night. We scored in the opening minute to take a 1 goal lead for the 1st half of the game. The other team scored to tie it up late in the second period. We went in to overtime with a 1-1 game. We lost with less than 1 minute to go. It was a tough loss but it was by far our best game. I was really proud of my team and Owen and the improvement they are showing.

‘Til next time…
