Top 5 Regrets About DragonCon 2011
I had an amazingly awesome time at DragonCon, but whenever you plan something, it never quite works like you expect it to. This time, the whole weekend turned out better because my family came out. Yet, there’s still a few things I wish could’ve happened. I wish the Bedlam Bards could’ve made it. The Firefly […]
Saturday at DragonCon 2011
Saturday at DragonCon began with a mistaken plan. I wanted to go play for the lines, but I forgot that the parade started at 10am. That, combined with the fact that DragonCon’s new registration system was a huge success, meant that I would stay at the table. That’s when I got the call that Gwen […]
Kenzie’s First Steps
I was surprised on Monday when I got home to see Kenzie take a few short steps. I was so busy with DragonCon this weekend that I didn’t realize Gwen was helping her to walk all weekend. Yesterday, she took many, many more steps by herself. When Gwen came home from school, she was thrilled […]

Kenzie Update
Right now, Kenzie is in her bouncy chair in my office. She’s playing with a carrot and having a great time trying to eat the leaves and bouncing while the annoying music kicks in. However, as long as she’s enjoying it, I’m happy. People keep asking for updates about Kenzie so I thought I’d write […]
Happy to Be Home
A week and a half after her cardiac incarceration, Kenzie came home today. She’s doing great. Her big chest incision is healed up. She’s smiling and happy. And of course, we are thrilled! Thanks again to everyone who sent their love, prayers, and even money. We really appreciate it! You are amazing. Thank you! Thank […]

Kenzie’s Heart Surgery Update
It’s been a long week. Over the past few days, Gwen and I patiently waited with baited breath for Kenzie to get better from her heart surgery last Monday. She has slowly improved each day. They started feeding her two days ago, which was a huge triumph. Then they found that she was accumulating a […]
