YouTube Famous – Recognized In The Wild!
The day I created my YouTube channel I told Emily “one day we’ll be walking around and people will recognize us”. She looked at me with a very common look I’ve seen many times over the years we’ve been married. Many, many hair-brained schemes later I know the look very well. It is kind of …
Granny and Pipa – Through Joey’s Eyes
My grandparents were instrumental role models in my life. They put family first at all times. They worked hard and also worked hard at having fun.

Squirrel Wars – My 3 Year War!

We hit the road on Fall Break to visit 3 of the far-flung little ones. We were going to see Emmaline in Orlando and decided to swing by Knoxville to see Max and Chattanooga to see Molly along the way. 1,500 miles later our fuel tank was empty, our wallets were empty from resupplying the …
Kids Are Back In School – I Stole Max’s Room (Deano’s New Game Lair)
We took the kids to college back in August (including Max for the first time). I waited patiently! Now the kids are back in school again. When they went back for the second semester (a few weeks ago) I sprang into action and stole Max’s room as my new game lair! Sorry, Max…not sorry!
