Congrats to Lovelady! Though down by six strokes going into the final day of competition, Dame d'Amour stirred a rousing comback and took the day by eight strokes giving him a 1 day victory and a repeat BLT championship! I'll customize the website in a few weeks, but here are some photos of the weekend.

Cinderella a big hit. Michelle and Madison saw Cinderella on Thursday at IU. It was a lot of fun for them both. Madison went dressed up as a princess. I think it was terrific. You'll have to ask Michelle for the skinny.

Happy b-day Cindy Newland! Monday was Cindy's b-day. She's officially getting older.

BLT begins this week! That's right. It's been nearly two years since the last BLT, and we are finally ready to start again. This year, we are determined to do Davis in! He just had hernia surgery, so that has to favor The Big Load and I. Stay tuned for pictures, scorecards, and trash talking...

Michelle is still beautiful, despite her age! That's right. Michelle turned 37 this week. (4/20). It's hard to believe. She still looks like she is in her mid twenties. I'm so lucky. :) For her birthday she got a "Vaughanberger" basket as well as tix to see Cinderella with Madison and the new "Left Behind" book. Plus some treasures the kids picked out from the dollar store.

Dissertation progress is going very well. I'm hoping to defend my proposal in the next month or so. That means lots of work. But so far, I'm really enjoying it.
