Family Trip to SeaWorld

Hey there.  I haven't had a chance to catch up with you guys over what went down this Memorial Day weekend.  I decided long ago that we were not going to stay home this weekend and we were going to have ourselves a good time.  I toyed with the idea of taking the family to Las Vegas, Disneyland, and LegoLand, among many other places but due to high entry prices and/or road trip time, I crossed many of those places out.  In the end, I managed to grab a great deal (buy 1 get 1 free) on SeaWorld admission.  BAM!  We were soooo there.

What Are You Getting Your Dad this Father's Day?

Hey there.  Father's day is less than 3 weeks away!  Have you managed to snag that awesome grill he's been eyeballing?  How about that brand new set of golf clubs?  Silk ties?  Great looking slacks?  Nothing?  Anything? Oh man...  You better hurry.  Before you know it, the big day will be here and you'll be caught empty handed.  Fear not!  For we have something awesome called the internet!  You don't need to go into a brick and mortar store to get dad something great.  You can browse online through hundreds of shops and save money on gas.  And... as an added bonus, you can use online discounts and coupons.  With all the "coupon craze" going on right now, everyone is looking to find a great deal no matter where they shop and shopping online is no different.

Marlins Fan Drops Daughter for Foul Ball... and Drops That Too

Hey there.  Wow...  have you guys heard about this?  A dad, at a Florida Marlin's baseball game, dropped his daughter in an attempt to catch a foul ball.  Wow...  The dad is saying that his daughter is ok but that's besides the point.  It makes me feel as if this man would protect himself over protecting his daughter.  If I were to see a projectile coming towards me, such as a baseball, I think I would have turned around, having the ball bounce off my back, while protecting my young one.  That's fatherly instincts... I don't know about this whole dropping the kid to free your hands for yourself.  If I was the wife/GF here...  I don't think I'd allow that guy to hold my kid.  lmao  What do you think? Check out the vid.
