Tahoe Snowboarding Trip

Took a nice trip up to Tahoe for a snowboarding weekend.  Marcia was gracious enough to let us use the cabin, so we all had a nicely affordable place to stay.   We had a bit of a conversation trying to figure out who was going to get chains, if anyone had 4WD, etc. when …

Carmel Valley weekend getaway – it was swell

Mike and Mary treated us all to a nice relaxing weekend at the Carmel Valley Lodge, the same place that we had a nice weekend a couple years ago.  Its out in Carmel Valley (obviously) and is close to a nice tiny downtown area, a lot of restaurants, and even more wineries.  Monterey County has some …

Trying to keep up with the pictures…

I’m trying to keep up with the frequency of the preggie pics, but i’m finding it hard to stay on target…  I did get a few on Wednesday before the night was over.  It might be easier if we had a little more room to work with but our rooms are so tiny (and i’ll admit, …

Nintendo DS Lite

I got my Nintendo DS Lite yesterday, yay!  It’s pretty neat and with the R4DS in combination with a microSD card – it will hold everything I need to play.  So far i’m really diggin’ the split screen action – we’ll see how attached I get to it!

Rayman Raving Rabbids

So one of the gifts that I received this past Christmas was a gently used Wii from Gene.  I went out to Game Stop and got Rayman Raving Rabbids (its the original one so its on sale) and this game is a lot of fun! Its got 70 or so mini-games in it – they’re …

Her belly is getting bigger…

Hi.  This is Jen.  She’s pregnant.  So we got most of the baby room ready, the crib is on order… man that baby stuff is expensive!  Who’d have thought?  Painting the room was such a treat… and we did it all with ONE gallon of paint.  That’s right – we made it last AND we …

Happy New Year!

A very mellow New Year’s this year.  Hangin out at home, relaxing – Jen fell asleep early because she has a little alien inside of her sucking her energy… 2008 was a great year and here’s to hoping 2009 is even better!

Christmas 2008

Christmas 2008 was a lot of fun, and very eventful.  We started out on the 23rd, heading up to the Pong Sr. residence.  As always, my mom likes to prepare food enough for fifteen people to eat, when there are only six of us!  Gene and Kristine showed up later that night and we all …

The Hawk is back!

So we finally finished the Hawk!  Very stoked, the ride back was really awesome.  Adding the extra tank was pretty easy as far as things go but the SV650 tail section was the hard part!  Warren had to create raised mounts along the subfram in order for us to hang the fairings.  In the end, …

Preggers!

Sooo, the time has come!  We’re pregnant!  I have always found it amusing that the guy gets credit for being pregnant when the woman is the one that carries the baby until its born.  Yay! “We’re” pregnant!  Tim seems to really enjoy the phrase “Spawn of Yong”, although it doesn’t really leave you with that …
