While you guys are playing with your big toys and buying expensive cars, detailing tools, big TV's, and private jets, wife and I are here potty training our younger one.

I should take a pict and post it so it looks hugegangeous in Motoron's living room.

Mmm that sounds so good! Next weekend!

I made my own cheese sauce for fries this week...it came out okay but the texture was a little off. I need a better whisk!
