Well sorta. The page is there and the slideshow on the front page as well as the basic infrastructure of the page are all live but the volumes of digital images that will eventually reside out there are still in the process of being uploaded and sorted into albums and galleries. You can still head [...]
Happy New Year! As it is 2010 and all your friendly neighborhood Godwins felt a bit obligated to give this whole blog/website yet another try. As I’m sure you’ve already noticed all of our formally fabulous flash based content is no more. In an attempt to be a bit easier to update and more universally [...]

So after months of planning and more than a few reworks by our AWESOME Disney specialist Debi (visit her at her website if you ever plan on making a visit to Disney World) we have finally arrived. We even managed to keep the fact that Granny and Cheyenne (Sydney’s cousin) were joining us secret from [...]

So after a full day at the National Infantry Museum we drove out to historic Warm Springs, GA to have dinner at the Bullock House. Its a bit of a local highlight around here and they are best known for their pulley-bones. Pulley-bones are the tender parts of the chicken breast around the wish bone. [...]

Yesterday we went out the National Infantry Museum. If you ever have the chance to visit the museum you really should. It was an exceptional tribute to the men and women of the US Army Infantry. The building itself is amazing and the first thing you notice as you pull up is that Iron Mike [...]

So the second day back in big C Dad signed all three of us (Dad, myself, and Mark – Meg’s husband) for a golf tournament out at Maple Ridge. It was sponsored by the local AUSA chapter to benefit the Wounded Warrior program. We were out pretty early to catch some breakfast at the Cracker [...]

So we head off to the airport, get there, and get in line curbside to drop off the luggage. So far so good. We get up to the counter and apparently Anita’s Skymile status gets us free priority upgrades to our luggage. Not only did we not have to pay for the bags we also [...]

Well almost – again. We’re leaving the house in the next 15 to hit the road to the airport. Back on the plane again I guess. Heading off from KC to Atlanta. Tried booking the shuttle down to Columbus last night but they wouldn’t take reservations ATL to CSG online. So, anyways, we hit the [...]

Yes folks we are back on US soil!!! We landed more than an HOUR early, the flight crew on United was very helpful and overly accommodating to Sydney, the customs officers were polite and even conversational. People waited in lines patiently, spoke to us in a friendly way, and asked if we needed any help! This is [...]

Well almost. For the first time in our 6+ year history in Kuwait all three of us have cleared customs together. We are now waiting for the minutes to tick by so we can use our special B-class ‘you’re too cool for school’ pass to the front of the line at the gate. Apparently United [...]

Well folks it was bound to happen. Anita was picking Sydney up from school driving home and one of the (expletive deleted) idiot (expletive deleted) drivers over here was paying absolutely no attention and clipped the Death Star in the rear deflector shields. We lost a small part of the rear quarter panel guard, Anita [...]
