 That's right. Santa Clause and Frosty the Snowman visited Piedmont Elementary's Wildcat Wakeup! You can imagine how excited those kids were. Most certainly the younger grades. I really enjoyed it too. It's a rare opportunity I get a morning off to go watch Wildcat Wakeup. If you've got a kid going to school there, you really should check it out. They really do a great job keeping those kids in order while letting them still have a great time. I especially love when Principal Shari Zimmerman says "Piedmont" and the kids respond with "Wildcats", then they all say "

Hi Everyone! Sorry it's taken a while to get a new post up. 'Tis the season for so many things right now... And so many things I could use some help with.

Then there's our decorations for the big night. The whole family pitches in to get setup. Last year we had five animatronics... wonder how many we'll have this year. Our front yard has two approaches to the candy: the Fright Path and the Fraidy Path (yeah... I know it's no

 Have you seen this site? I came across it about 3 weeks ago and have loved it ever since. I work on a pretty busy schedule and like to spend some family time after work. So, I don't always get to sit down and watch TV (spend more time on the computer). But there are still shows out there that I enjoy.
Well along comes hulu.com. They have prime time episodes of great shows like The Office, Saturday Night Live, and my new favorite... Fringe! The best part is I can pause and come back to it any
