Photo Diary: February 2015 Part 1
Hi Gang, I’m trying something new because I am SO behind in posting Photo Diaries. Instead of doing several per day until I get caught up, here are the first 14 days of the February 2015 — including February 1st, which was already published. Just click on an image, it’ll embiggen and you can actually scroll through from there!
The Best Dad Commercials Of The Super Bowl
I intended to get this post up yesterday, but the combined forces of a big snow storm and the kids both getting a gnarly (and messy) stomach virus preempted all that. I had a great time watching this year’s Super Bowl between the Patriots and the Seahawks. I didn’t have a dog in the fight per se because I’m a Steelers fan, but since my wife is a Pats fan I found myself rooting for them. Frankly, I was just glad that it wasn’t a total washout like last year’s big game. Continue reading

Most of the horror movies I mentioned seeing were done during kiddo nap time, though a few were watched after everyone went to bed. If you only see one newer scary movie this year, make it Resolution!
The book I mentioned really enjoying on my phone is R.L. Stein’s Red Rain. Great stuff so far.
There’s just something about Little Princess that gets under my skin. Lu loves it though.

The Pop Poppa Nap Cast Episode 75
Late as it may be, the 75th episode of the Pop Poppa Nap Cast praises DVD projectors, chronicles a trip to the flea market and more!
A note to listeners before jumping in, I recorded this episode last Wednesday, but the editing process got away from me, hence the lateness. Looking forward, I’m most likely going to switch up the posting schedule for the podcast. I’m just running into so many roadblocks when it comes to posting halfway through the week on Wednesdays. I’m thinking it might make sense to record throughout the week and give myself until Friday to get the show up and ready. That being said, I’m hoping to double-ship this week and hope to have another episode up by this Friday at 3:00PM. Wish me luck!
The projector we use is the Epson MovieMate 62
Check out Stormville if you live in the area!
As this posts, Lu is on her way back from her first sorta-first day of school, which I will talk about in Friday’s episode.
The League is fantastic. Check it out on Netflix or FXX!
Heh, I already stopped using that nap spreadsheet.

Guys, I’m super excited for the Browns to (hopefully) get better thanks to Johnny Manziel.

The Colosseum is in Salem, NH. Go there. It’s fantastic.
