Best Balloon Artist Ever
Saturday, February 27th, 2010We went to a preschool open house today with the girls and saw what was by far the best balloon artist I’ve ever seen. He made a princess for our oldest–very cool.
Waiting is the hardest part…
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010So–the shop has the wheels, the rear hub, and assorted other parts needed to fix my bike. They thought they might have it ready by last Friday, but didn’t make it.

Video Site
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010Not having the correct permissions on the hughes-etc.com site, I decided to install Gallery2 (a PHP web gallery) and see if I could upload some videos. You can see some Christmas videos and shots of the little one cruising, pulling up, etc at videos.danzbb.com
Funny seat
Monday, February 1st, 2010While cruising around the edge of the coffee table, the little one decided to sit down and play with some toys. She found a convenient seat
