Campbell's Blog

This past weekend we did a little bit of upgrade work on the kids rooms. Really what spurned this is the fact that Campbell is ready to move out of the crib and up into a real bed. When we went on a beach trip a few weeks back the kids got to stay in [...]

Yes, of course I could have called it guy’s weekend, since Mara and Mom are off to VA. But that would be so 2000 and late. Plus, King’s weekend is much more representative of how Campbell and I roll when we have the house to ourselves. We started off with bfast at Mickey D’s. By [...]
