Smog alert

Posted by logan on July 3rd, 2008

Ah, summertime. Time for grilling out, baseball, and–for those in the academic world–summer vacation. But with the good comes the bad. Sunburn. Extreme heat. And smog. Which brings about one of my favorite stories from childhood.
When my brothers and I were old enough to stay home without the supervision of a babysitter, I was sort […]

A Song for Mama

Posted by Administrator on May 11th, 2008

You taught me everything
And everything you’ve given me
I always keep it inside
You’re the driving force in my life, yeah
There isn’t anything
Or anyone that I can be
And it just wouldn’t feel right
If I didn’t have you by my side
You were there for me to love and care for me
When skies were grey
Whenever I was down
You were […]

…Wish we could party like it’s ur birf-day!

Happy 50+ birthday, Hammy. We love and miss you, and wish we were there to “blow out the lights” on your cake. Yammy - make sure they keep that one alive and well. It’s a Buchanan family favorite. Much love to you all - […]

Buchanan Family Christmas Eve

Posted by liz on February 20th, 2008

Okay, so I know this post is a little late, but I feel that you’ll have a better understanding of why I’m like I am, if you meet some of my family. First, let’s start off with my godmother, Aunt Nancy.

It all started a few years back when she had this great drink we “just […]

Toilet trauma

Posted by logan on February 3rd, 2008

Probably against the better judgment of someone in the recovering stages of flu, I decided to drive down to Monon, Indiana, to my aunt Donna’s house yesterday to see my mom, dad and brothers who were there visiting. It’s not that bad of a drive (1 hour if you ask Aunt Donna, a little over […]

The War

As seen through the eyes of 6 year old Aaron, whose dad (my cousin Mike) is off to Iraq for his third deployment.

A Christmas Card Story

Posted by logan on December 25th, 2007

Many people have made comments about the Christmas cards that we sent out this year. Inquiring minds want to know. How did we get Tito inside a stocking? How did we get him to stay inside a stocking? And did we really place said stocking and said Chihuahua and hang them on the wall?
It was […]

Kind of a big deal

Posted by logan on December 17th, 2007

It’s no secret that little Tito is kind of a big deal. He gets a lot of love, not only from me and Liz, but also both sets of our parents, brothers, Aunt Leann, and even my Aunt Lana commented on his cuteness from this year’s Christmas card. The problem is that Tito knows how […]

Too many candles

Posted by logan on December 16th, 2007

December 16th is both my mom and dad’s birthday. Same day, different years. Happy birthday, mom and dad!
We love you!

“Cheesecake”

Posted by liz on October 1st, 2007

So, I thought I posted this last Wednesday, but apparently I saved it instead of publishing it. My bad. Anyway, here it is…

This past week, we’ve been missing Cincinnati pretty bad. It’s always harder when you’re driving back and forth all the time - like a constant reminder of what you’re missing back […]
