Corey helped me get a new wordpress theme going here, and I decided to do a little Gerald Mackerel logo. I think it’s pretty nice, Jared is currently working on other elements so expect those…

I was thinking if we got some old school 80s-90s family pics we could choose a few to alternate in the heading with the logo on top of them that would be sweet, just an idea.

The logo files and fonts (for those of you with Illustrator/Photoshop) can be downloaded Here.

We need some stuff for the about page? any ideas?

Have you heard of the color munki?

Pretty amazing.

We only have a couple of weeks until Easter, so I thought it would be great to find out what everyone is planning on doing for the holiday BESIDES GOING TO CHURCH. Easter sure isn’t as much fun as when little kids are around to have egg hunts and hide baskets. Jared will still expect that though, and I refuse to just use the living room cabinets again this year.

Fine. I’m done posting youtube on the blog, and I replaced it with this post.

So last week  in Civics class, the teach gave us a paper to pass around and told us each to write down a food/drink to bring in on Friday, since he thought we donated money to charity. He must’ve got classes mixed up because our class, consisting of about 10 people, donated a total of  $0.00 . Thinking back, looking for the best food/drink I’ve had in a while, I wrote down “chocolate soy milk”. The class was grossed out.

On Friday, the donuts and 2%(milk), some Faygo and various cookies were displayed on <i>my</i> desk, so I went ov to sit by Austin and got out the soy milk. The class was tot amazed!  Soy milk being a huge underdog in the food-fest as I expected, both containers(choc and vanill) were empty in about 20 min.

P.S. Silk sucks. Get a generic brand. Vanilla tastes almost exactly like coffee creamer, so buying this instead will save you some big bux. Some say that chocolate tastes like Yoohoo.

It’s official – Dad is now a proud email manager and part of the Salzano blog.  Let the fun begin (slowly)

That about sums up the weekend with the fam.  It was awesome and relaxing. The weather was crap, but whatev. We went to Airlie Gardens on Saturday because it was free and Joel was feeling up to it, and here are some pics.

Huge tree.

Was hoping for a geese attack by the time this picture was captured. Didn’t happen.

Bottle house. Why didn’t I get a pic from the front?? Mom have one?

Make a wish…

Friendly duel.

The pergola…before Jared fell in the water.

And then I abuptly stopped taking pics…as usual.

I just want to take a moment and thank everyone for all the gifts and cards I have received since returning home from my operation. Gage, the candy was great! Jared, the stuffed animals may have been a little to much especially since they are pink. But its cool, because I know how you like Hot Pink! I love the card. GMA Smith, every thing came out fine! You don’t have to worry about it anymore! The recovery process is going great! My visiting nurse is the best! And if you thought the ride from PA to NC was uncomfortable, having someone change dressings definitely has it beat! But we are finished using hydrogen peroxide so no more volcanic eruptions are taking place in my lower back ;(.  I’m really going to miss it! Other than that everything seems to be healing nicely! At this point I give my self a 96.87439% chance I’m going to pull through.

Aaron is on his way to Lexington, KY to work with some guy on hotel carpeting. He got hooked up with him when he bought carpet tools from the Pitzer brothers. Apparently it was an on-the-spot decision: he was gone this weekend with Bethany, and I came home from work to a note. So, through having to do the mom and dad carpeting, he got some work, AND TRAVEL! Not bad.

By the way, the Salzano home looks absolutely great with the new Christmas carpet. The best part – all squeaks are gone. We want you all to know how thankful and happy we are with this gift – we love you all.

Sorry, Aaron. No more Precious visits.

And creating a new post. Instead of comments. Look at that. Good thing I had some practice from my other blog. Yes, I did just create a link.

Good to see the Salzano Fam finally blogging. Everything we do together always turns out so awesome, so we should probably prepare ourselves for the fame that will ensue, as well as a few blog-of-the-year awards. Someone has to teach Dad. Not it.

So, I guess I will give an update on Joel’s surg. It went well, and so far he is not having really any pain (I think he is lying). I had a mental breakdown last night while trying to pack his wound (which is pretty enormous). But all is well and now I feel at least capable. He is bored and sick of laying around so he started sitting on a pillow. Let’s just say the Percs are working great as of yet. I got him a new playstation to keep him busy, and I guess NCAA playoffs are starting up…? I feel bad I have to work today, but he doesn’t ask me for much help anyway.

Pretty excited to visit with some fam this weekend…

PS. It is 78 degrees Fahrenheit. You should come visit. The whole damn lot of you.
