Welcome to the site, glad you could make it. We setup this domain and server space so that we can have our very own place to post pictures and other "stuff" without using a bunch of random sites that could change addresses or stop being free at any time. 4/15/09 - Dean's Music Skills   Easter 2009   5/26/08 - Hot Dogs, Allergies, and Sunburn Oh My! Wow! Summer came fast this year. The best part of the warmer weather is that more of the family can get together without cramming everyone inside the house. BBQs are funny though. Is it just me or does everyone attempt to eat one of everything no matter how full we feel? I think I might limit the menu to grilled lettuce next time. It's not a vegan-activist thing as much as a "hey I can't see my feet anymore" thing. Sue's also been hard at work uploading new pics to the photo pages so check em out. You'll find a bunch of pics of Ryan enjoying the rides at Keansburg (aka the permanent white trash carnival). This place is similar to Bowecraft amusement park but it's right on the Raritan Bay near sandy hook. 12/16/07 - It's a FESTIVUS for the rest of us! Let's face it, if December gets any more commercialized, Santa himself will end up on Ebay. Don't try driving within a 100 mile radius of any mall, which means you can't drive in New Jersey at all. We still figure out a way to smile for pictures like the one below. You have no idea how long it takes to get a shot like this :-) 11/3/07 - Party time. Excellent! Sometimes weddings blow. This one didn't. My cousin Nichole's wedding was fun. My beer brewing peers had fun with this pic. Coors light? Hey, you have to hydrate after tequila shots! Fiesta!! 9/13/07 - I finally finished building the kid's play set. We realized how much Ryan loved going to the playground so we wanted to give her something similar in our fenced-in yard. After shopping around for redwood and cedar kits all over the place, we decided we didn't want to spend $3000. This was designed in Google Sketchup (a free 3d drawing program) and built completely from pressure treated lumber from both Lowes and HD. We found the slide on the side of the road (dumpster diving rocks!!). The sandbox base is 6 x 6 feet and holds just under a TON of play sand. The swing seats are wood and uses all stainless steel hardware including the chain. I purchased the tarps and plastic accessories from backyardcity.com and I highly recommend them if you take on a similar project. The total cost of the project was $850 including the sand, lumber, accessories and mulch (add $100 if you buy the slide). No. <--in case you were asking me to build one in your yard. 8/9/07 - HEY! We have a new page dedicated to videos.           Photo Gallery We were using Pbase.com for all our digital pictures (and it was great for that purpose) but we found the price per megabyte was a little high and it didn't support posting other kinds of files. When we didn't renew our subscriptions, we couldn't upload anymore so Susan signed up at flickr.com temporarily until we got this site going. Our gallery's at those sites are still packed with pictures so don't hesitate to explore there, but we will eventually host everything here and close those accounts. About Us We fully realize that having a "couples" website is about as cheesy as it gets (short of dressing up in matching argyle sweaters or jogging outfits), but we tend not to give a crap. Once you're married, you pretty much do things to make everyone sick to their stomachs on a daily basis anyway. Did we really create a web domain by sticking our names together? Yes we did. Now that we have that settled, here's the story of how we met (told in 3rd person for extra cheddar). Bobby was the drummer for a cover band that played all the clubs that Susan and her friends liked to dance at. You would assume that over the course of a summer, their paths would cross and the rest would be history, but you'd be wrong. The cover band industry is quite competitive and requires that the band find innovative ways to draw people in to see them play. Bobby had the bright idea to do creative searching on Yahoo member profiles to see if he could advertise the band's shows to people who are likely to take the bait (damn, this sounds like an episode of Nightline). Susan's profile was filled with keywords like "dancing", "clubs", and the names of other local bands. A couple emails and online chats later they became friends. Both in long-term relationships at the time, a romance was the last thing on their minds. A few months later, they both found themselves single and decided to finally meet. The rest is history.  Are you still reading this?
