We love a parade

* a lot

A little* rain couldn't rain on the annual All-Fools Day Parade, Bassett Brigade and Bassett Bash in Woodinville.

A sure sign baseball is back

I'm three and...

I've got my own brand of beer. Don't even worry about it.

Mini-me

One or Max's favorite things in the world right now are Mini Coopers and pointing out Mini Coopers on the road.

So what better way to spend a weekend afternoon than a visit to our local Mini dealership?! Or as Max likes to call it... Disneyland.

Happy St. Patrick's Day from the Greenes

Covers boy

Then and now

Another highlight of our recent LA trip was stopping to see our old house in Grenada Hills. In fact the current home owner was nice enough to take our picture out in front replicating a photo we'd taken 34 years earlier on the day we moved away.

Maybe Max will go back for a picture with his kids some day.

Max gets the call

Hockey Night in Los Angeles

Three generations of Greenes.

Some quality family time.

A cheeseburger at a hockey game... why not?!

Kings win!

An awesome night we won't soon forget.


Max and I took my dad down to LA this weekend for an early celebration of his 70th. The big draw was the chance to see the LA Kings play at Staples.

My dad grew up a fan of hockey in the City of Angels, but hadn't been to a game since the '70s.

It also was Max's first NHL game. He just needs to get to an NBA contest to say he's seen all four major sports.
