Shirt.Woot! T-shirts for Dads

If you are the type of guy that wears button-up shirts on a Saturday morning to your kid’s soccer game, you can stop reading this now. This post is not for you. Oh, and you are spending way too much for those pants you are wearing. If you are a ‘regular guy’ like me, with some geeky leanings and a [...]

The Birth of a Soccer Fan
The Birth of a Soccer Fan

Dads are funny. We will do just about anything for our kids, even if it means doing something we promised ourselves that we would never do. I distinctly remember back a few years ago before we started having babies that I would NEVER let my child play soccer. He was going to be a football player and that’s it. Soccer [...]

Today was the last day of school and our neighborhood had an awesome pool party to celebrate. My kids were finishing first and second grade and think they are ready for the real world.

Trip Report: Tellus Science Museum

Admittedly, I am a science geek. I am not quite smart enough to be a science nerd, but I am quite the geek, knowing a little bit about a whole bunch of stuff. My kids are turning into the same sort, not quite reaching nerd status where they trade in their cleats for sensible shoes, but they definitely enjoy listening [...]

The song they are dancing to is Single Ladies by Beyonce, and there is no doubt that the kids put a lot of work into the routine and are having a lot of fun. There is also no doubt that [...]

Foolish Fighting Fathers

This weekend, I found myself in the middle of two physical confrontations that could have gotten completely out of control. I was not involved in the exchanges, but I was close enough to see them both, beginning to end. An important thing to note before I go to far, is that the area I live in isn’t known for this [...]

A New Beginning
A New Beginning

For about 3 years, my blog was called Tread Heavily. I liked it and spent a lot of time chronicling my family adventures. I am in the process of importing some of my old content, because some very important things were documented there. Most significantly was the birth of eBaby. That blog died a short time back as I started [...]

Day Trip: Eat Too Much and Hike
Day Trip: Eat Too Much and Hike

If you can’t tell by my infrequent posts, my family likes to travel. We don’t always make big trips across the country, or even across state lines, but we do like to get out and see what fun can be had in our general area. We’re lucky that we’ve settled in North Atlanta, as this area is filled with incredible [...]
