Close Enough

Did we leave on a cliff hanger? Probably not. We wanted to get sit down and talk and do a little reflecting about this year before we attempt to recharge and restart making this every week. This is for us but we like sharing it with everyone too. Merry Christmas!

We managed our second podcast for the month. This early morning recording has us talking about the cell phone outage and what an apocalypse looks like for the Thomas family. We dug into a couple true crime shows and learned that the internet is wild. Abby's birthday is on the horizon so don't forget to pencil in celebrating on her behalf anytime in March.

Last year we released 13 podcasts and this year Abby has already read that many books. Chat with us about how we are like the Kelce family, Abby's reminisces about her kidney stone and yes how our Christmas tree is still up.Also throw some thoughts to our pal Phillip Smith who is recovering after a fall off a ladder. Intro By Snail Music

Hey we missed you. It's been busy. What better way to ease back into things than to talk about old nostalgic places we used to eat at back in the day. So many have come and gone. We confront some adult decisions and how Harlan defeated the potty monster. Thanks for listening!

At the beginning of the month 8 of us went to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. Most of the people there ( minus wives who hadn't met us yet) were in attendance on that day but furthermore they've been pieces of our lives for about 30 years. We recorded two sessions, all girls and all guys. The guys get the spotlight first as Matt Stokes, Seth Thatcher, Jason Ellis and Gary talk about their friendships, marriage and more. Proceed with caution.

Vacation season and this year we went to Disneyworld. For all the pictures of fun and happiness we struggled but made the most of it. Car rides and dark rides were on the list. Harlan had fun at our expense and even Charley found some bright spots.

As mentioned, we got dressed up almost like prom and spent the night at a fancy work gala. Abby looked amazing and Gary was well hydrated thanks to the bourbon tasting. Abby closed out her teaching era by taking a new job outside the classroom. We take a dive into our favorite comedy and talk about the Matt Rife explosion.

We appreciate the patience and hopefully this marks the return.We discuss wanting our kids to be bored and how we had no choice. Abby had a yard sale. We watched The Machine! The struggle of being an autism parent can be a rollercoaster and that has been on display alot lately. We are getting dressed up to go to a fancy party. We love you!
