Drew got tickets to a Jazz game against the Miami Heat for his birthday. On the drive up Drew said all he wanted was a Jazz win. The last Jazz game we went to (two years ago) they lost to the Pelicans pretty handily, so Drew was feeling cursed. We got there in plenty of …

Dual Sip Straw: Drew’s Invention Fair
Oh how I love the invention fair and the stress that falls upon mom and dad to help come up with something creative. However, as I have gotten older and wiser, I don’t really invest any of my time into this anymore. After all, it is for the kids, not us, right parents? I just …
