The Odd Couple

Opposites do attract, especially in music. One of the ways to keep things fresh is go with a different perspective on a tried and true classic. Here's a good example. Besides Greg Lusby and Owen McIntire, Abe Laboriel Jr. is one of my favorite drummers and he is McCartney's touring drummer. He's taking on a Ringo classic and killing it. Check it out...

Some pics from our Trip

We recently went to England with Katy's family to visit her's brother new baby, Lilly. We had a great trip and Ava and Jude did awesome. Baby Lilly joined us on all our adventures and was perfect. Thanks for a great trip, Bonnie and Joel!

Ok, I had to write about this one...

Ava had a band-aid on her finger and Katy ripped it off before bed tonight. Oh course, Ava cried and cried. Here's how the rest of the conversation unfolded...

Ava: "whaa, my finger hurts."

Katy: "What will make it feel better?"

Ava: "A U2 song."

Katy: "Ok, which song?"

Ava: "Get on Your Boots."

Daddy: Smiling with pure delight.

Ava's 3rd Birthday

Have you ever heard the philosophy that for ever Disney product that you would buy for a birthday party, buy them Disney stock instead? Yeah, I don't think Ava would understand...

A Great Weekend

I had a great weekend a couple weeks back. I finally got to experience the thrill and excitement of a championship parade in my beloved city of Philadelphia. I'm so glad it was the Phillies since my grandmother had season tickets and I grew up playing baseball. It was special. I even got to watch some of the games with my son, which was awesome. Ava thinks every sports team is the Phillies now since they were on the tv almost every night of the summer! Speaking of summer, it was really special this year because I listened to almost every game in the blazing heat of my attic or bedrooms as I was sanding and priming and painting till the wee hours of morning trying to get our house ready for Jude's arrival. So, I almost felt like I was a part of the team! Plus, this year we celebrated my 30th birthday at a game and I received my absolutely increadible EJ Fender Strat. So, it's been a great year. I'm glad I got to cap if off with the Phill's parade.

I raced home in time for Halloween, which was a ton of fun on Highland Ave. Ava and Owen Mc went out together and had a blast. Here's our artful creations. Katy is the creative one... try to guess...




The next night, my sister Leah took me to see Coldplay for an early Christmas present. The concert did what it was supposed to do and that was reassure me why I am a fan. Chris Martin was spot on (I heard only one bad note on the paino, which is cool cause it proves it's live...) and the drummer proved why he is the all-star of the band. I'm still singing their songs in my head. Gotta love that! Plus, Leah and I had a great time. Thanks Leah!


Then, to cap it all off... I got my new iPhone. It was a weekend to remember.
