Bennett is One

We celebrated Bennett's 1st birthday on Sunday with friends and family. I think Bennett really enjoyed the chocolate cake!

Snow in SC

We had between 7 and 8 inches of snow Friday night. Trice loves the snow and wishes she got to see the white stuff more often!

Whetstone (again)

The newest addition to our den has a new frame and a new home.

DJ's Office

DJ has a new photo for his office. This will be the first USC thing in his office - fitting it would be the new baseball field!

Club Trillion

I read an article in The State newspaper Sunday about Mike Titus and his blog. Mike is a basketball player at Ohio State University, I use the word player loosely because he really is a bench warmer. The name of his blog - Club Trillion - came about because trillion is what those in the basketball world refer to as someone that gets into the game for a minute but records no other statistic than that. There is a 1 for the minute and then enough zeros for the number to be a trillion.

Titus' Saturday post was a fitting time for me to start reading his blog. He made several references to the compliance office at OSU. And poked fun at some of the crazy NCAA rules. I have now added this to my lists of blogs to read. Definitely a must read!

Whetstone

Last night we attended the Ray Tanner Foundation auction and dinner. We walked away with several items...my favorite is a painting by Steven Whetstone. Whetstone is a former South Carolina baseball player and is now (although always was) an artist. Steven was affectionately know to many as *Dry Rock* and famous for his caricatures in the baseball media guide one season. We had a wonderful evening and it was great to see several of the former baseball players come out to support a good cause.
