Anyone have Game Genie cheat codes for Angry Birds?
Ok. I think I’ve figured out how to beat Angry Birds. I just need to find some cheat codes for the Game Genie.
What? This is how I beat all the video games when I was a kid.
Cupcakes, Cows, Presents & Water
Our little girl is now two years old! What better way to celebrate than with two parties and doing all the fun things she loves to do.
It started out with Uncle Josh visiting on her birthday. That’s pretty special as he was in from California. Josh gave her some plastic food so she could feed her dolls and pretend she was cooking like Mom.

Then she had the weekend with just Mom and Dad. She got plastic plates, bowls and cups to go with her plastic food and she loves to play with them. She also got some Elmo things and other fun toys. Plus we had ice cream cookie sandwiches!
Where’s Wall-E? Can you find him?
I’m a fan of the Where’s Waldo books for some reason so when I came across Where’s Wall-E I couldn’t stop looking for him until I found him. It took a few minutes, but I found him; along with a lot of other cool robots!

Parades are so much fun when you’re a kid.
Lily went to her first parade over the weekend and I think it was almost more than she could take in, but she enjoyed it.
Lily enjoying the parade.
From the horses to the floats to the candy, there was always something to look at and something to do.
When floats played music, we danced. When there was something being handed out, we wanted it. When the big vehicles honked their horns or backfired, we ran into daddy’s arms for safety.
This could get dangerous.
Going for a drive.
My little girl is behind the wheel; buckled in for safety of course. Oh and the car is on thanks to remote start.
Taking a ride on the carousel.
Lily has been really excited to go to the fair this year and tonight was the night. She loved the cows, horses and all the people. Most of all, she loved the carousel.
Enjoying the carousel.
Look at us go!
It was mom’s idea to go for a ride and it was a fantastic idea. From the moment the horse started to move, her face just lit up.
I’m pretty sure I’m growing a child who will love rides. And, as she gets bigger, so will the rides!
My parents should be so proud of me because I’m addicted to the internet, not drugs.
Dear Mom and Dad and the D.A.R.E. people,
I listened. I’m not addicted to drugs, instead I’m addicted to the internet.
I’m not wasting all my money on meth and crack and things like that. Though I do spend money on hosting, Flickr Pro, online backup and Amazon. Not to mention all the apps and music I get from iTunes. But that’s not the point, I’m being good.
I don’t go around, stealing things just to get a fix. Wait, that’s not exactly true. I have been known to “borrow” the internet from the library across the street when mine goes out just to send an email. And I do know where to find free internet if I need it. Again, not the point.
10 years can really change a guy. Just ask Dexter.
Remember watching Dexter’s Laboratory in the 90′s? Well watching Dexter now is just not the same. He’s all grown up, has a new job and might be a little crazy. His sister is still annoying though.
How to get free passes to the MN Zoo and other great places.
Zoo Goats
Did you know that some Minnesota libraries have free passes to all sorts of MN destinations?
We were lucky enough to get our hands on a MN Zoo pass last week and the whole family got into to the zoo for free!
We got to feed the baby goats, see the fish, lions and all sorts of other animals. Lily had a great time not only with the animals but also watching all the other kids.
The program is called the Museum Adventure Pass and they can get you into:
