Prince Caspian by C.S. Lewis – A Book Review
I largely credit my love of reading with The Chronicles of Narnia. My fourth grade teacher read the entire series to our class and I loved every minute of it. With the contemporary release of theatrical versions of the first two installments, I’ve enjoyed rereading the books for the first time in twenty years. Prince…

Original Art for the Baby
Talented and award-winning artist Dixie Petticrew (and my aunt) created the below picture as a gift to our little girl. Kristen and I absolutely adore it! We have several pieces of art by Aunt Dixie throughout our house, but this one is by far our favorite for obvious reasons. If you enlarge the picture by clicking…

Granted, by the time I finally got around to watching it on DVD, I’d seen the creature, but that’s really about all I knew. I hadn’t heard much about the storyline or any major revelations. Of course, I now…

Walk the Line – A Movie Review
I knew nothing about Johnny Cash, literally, before watching Walk the Line. Seriously. I knew only one of his songs, “Ring of Fire,” because they used to play it all the time in college at a local bar where we played pool. Other than that-zilch. That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie Walk the…
