This week Kurt’s mom introduced me to a new hobby I think I’m going to really enjoy called Letterboxing. I had never heard of it before but I found out that a letterboxer will hide a small, weatherproof box somewhere in a public place, usually like a park. Each box has it’s own logbook and [...]

Browns=win, Chiefs=win
Sunday was finally an enjoyable day of football for us. We were pretty frustrated with both of our teams starting the season 0-3. First the Browns beat the Bengals, who were also 0-3, in Cincinnati. Then even more impressive was the Chiefs win over the Broncos. The Broncos were 3-0 coming into this week and [...]

Brownie’s new bed
This is a little crazy but I love it. I’ve had my eye on a new dog bed for Brownie and while we were out shopping this weekend for new living room furniture I saw the bed I wanted was on sale for half price. I think it is such a pretty, girly dog bed. [...]

Happy Birthday Al
Our nephew Alex turned 6 years old this past weekend and celebrated with a gymnastic Wall-E party. We have no idea what Wall-E is though. Little Al had a great day and his favorite presents were 2 more Webkins. He now has 10 in his collection but these are his first twins. He named them [...]

Brownie’s first report card
While we were in Dayton, Brownie was able to stay at her favorite home away from home, The Barkley Pet Hotel & Day Spa. She especially loved this trip because she got 2 full days of playtime in the daycare. When we picked her up they gave us a report card on how she did [...]

Our new favorite restaurant
We haven’t added to Beal’s Meals in awhile for 2 reasons: a) we have been trying to cook at home more and b) when we do eat out we always go to our new favorite place, Lehman’s Deli. We love it and can’t seem to sick of it. It’s a small deli in Westlake just [...]

Brownie is not lucky and who is Tyler Thigpen??
The NFL 2008-2009 season has started off horribly for us. We’ve come to realize that our little household is probably cheering for the two worst teams in the entire NFL. We had such high hopes for the Browns this season not only because they came off a great 10-6 season last year but also because [...]

“Please don’t eat me”
This weekend we went to Dayton for the Sigma Chi 25th anniversary at the University of Dayton. Kurt was down in Dayton already for work so I decided to meet him by taking the Greyhound bus. It was only $24 to get to Columbus and last time I took the Greyhound I was pleasantly surprised [...]

Katy & Baby Rexing strike a pose
Kurt’s sister, Katy, has recently revived her modeling career. Katy is now about 6 months preggers and expecting a baby boy on January 9th. One of her favorite maternity stores is Krista K maternity + baby. It’s a really cute boutique on Southport Avenue near their old home in Chicago. While in there recently, they [...]

Somebody send FEMA!!
On Sunday evening, we returned home to a pitch black neighborhood and house. As we drove down the streets near our home, we saw tree branches blown around everywhere. We had no idea that while we were in the Browns game that Hurricane Ike had torn through Cleveland and left most of the city without [...]
