Want to make your chicken wings taste even more yummy?

Then marinade them in Hooters Wing Sauce after they have been grilled, baked or even fried. Breaded wings work the best. The sauce is in most grocery stores everywhere. I found some at WalMart even.

Playing around with Photoshop

2009-04-13T02:36:00Z

Photoshop makes photos turn into works of art.

Just by cropping my goffy face out of an old picture and placing in into a new photo, I brought the picture to life. Of course, it's a bit early to be thinking about Christmas, but it does give us some ideas for prank Christmas cards this coming season.

Our bike ride through Corvallis

2009-04-12T02:44:00Z

Even though it was sleeting and raining, we had a great ride through Corvallis and into Phalomath.

Corvallis is the most bike friendly community around these parts.

The boy and the most loyal dog in the world.

Buckled in and ready to take off.

First signs of spring coming, finally.

Covering the precious cargo from the sleet and rain.

The sleet against Shelly's black bike pants.

It finally stopped sleeting and raining long enough for us to finish our ride. The sun actually came out at one point during the ride back to the car as well.

Popping the Cork

2009-03-05T02:08:00Z

Popping the cork on our Valentine's Day and Anniversary Champagne. Skylar drank gingerale while we celebrated and drank up. Shelly was afraid I was going to hit her in the eye with the cork, but I ended up hitting the wall thank goodness.

Shelly hates messes, so Skylar and I figured out a way to stay out of trouble.

Six years together and I love her more everyday

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY AND ANNIVERSARY SHELL SHELL! I LOVE YOU!

New Year's Day Bike Ride with the Family

2009-02-11T02:24:00Z

Every New Year's, even when we rode bikes with Shelly's dad (Mike) and other friends in Arkansas, we have taking a bike ride. Sometimes we are out all day riding and it's just a great way to bring in the New Year and to help keep us on the right track as far as being healthy goes. Here is the 2009 New Year bike ride we took here in Lebanon, Oregon.

Getting the tires aired up.

I love my wife.

Papa Boodie

Shelly and I have always loved Cici's Pizza, but Papa Murphy's is a good contender. Cici's pizza is already cooked and Shelly loves their spinach pizza that they offer there. Papa Murphy's has the pizza made in front of you sort of like the line at Subway, you go down the line and watch them place the toppings on the pizza then they wrap it up and you take it home and cook it in your own home.

We have always had pizza night at our house, but last Thursday we came up with our own pizza idea. I call it Papa Boodie's pizza. Jiffy came out with a version of pizza crust and just by adding a bit of herbs to the crust mix and a bit of salt you can make your very own pizza in your home. Shelly makes a great pizza sauce, just by adding herbs to anything she brings out the best flavors. Here is my very own Papa Boodie's pizza making.

Reflections of my Past

Oh how the days have gone by........

My Ford Bronco I owned, sitting in front of my parents house in Oregon, before moving to Arkansas.

A scrapbook poster my mom made for my 30th birthday. I was living in Arkansas at the time.
