For over two years, our family has been testing crafts from the internet to see what happens when real people try them. We made the decision last summer to step up our game and bring in Monica Mangin. As my D.I.Wife, Monica, provides some adult supervision at making these craft projects successful. It turns out […]

When I married Penn, I was in my 20s and I was a lot more fun. I had an entire section of my closet dedicated to “going out” tops. I was spontaneous and carefree. Late night dinners and nights dancing with friends were my idea of a good time. Then life happened. And just as […]

Penn and I have this tradition with Valentine’s Day. We always say, “Don’t get me anything” then 100% of the time he gets me something. This year I won’t be fooled! But I also don’t plan ahead. Luckily, we live in an era where awesome gifts can be ordered with 2-day free shipping right to […]

They are unapologetically cauliflower. (Don’t be afraid to own it, ok?) Having said that, I promise they are a crowd favorite at […]

You know what I’m guilty of? Saying the phrase: “Let me know if you need anything.” Especially to friends of mine with special needs children. What I learned this week from Dr. Emily King (our favorite child and adolescent psychologist podcast guest) is that empty gesture doesn’t do anyone any favors. How many times has […]

I love to start something. In fact, I start A LOT of things. I have a list of videos I have started and never finished. I have 3 different first chapters of 3 different books I want to write. I love the energy, the excitement, the possibility of a FRESH START. But finishing things? Yeah, […]

Have a laugh on us!
Lifestyle, exercise and diet tips to keep you healthy (or health-ish).
In most of our content, you see us having fun with, and making fun of, our family and our marriage. There’s plenty to laugh at, there is also plenty to work on.
This portion of our website is all about our ongoing quest to be better at being married to each other. The content is a little longer form than the usual videos, but it will still make you laugh - and hopefully it’ll make you think a little!
Parodies and original music to make you smile.
We create videos that are meant to make you laugh. This is our podcast that is meant to make you think (and hopefully still laugh a little!).
