Okay, this one is less labor-intensive:

Make up a new word and give it a definition.

The Top of the Hill is in Sight

I KNOW this comes a day late, but I've never been good at remembering birthdays. That being said (and painfully obvious), it does not mean that I forget about the ways that I love and respect my family members - each for their own unique gifts and quirks that make life in the Stenzel swarm an endless source of enjoyment.


As for the birthday boy, I can think of no better tribute than to show him with his family! Happy birthday PTBoy!

What can you do in two seconds?

Sometimes you just need sit back and say "how's come I didn't think of this"?

Ok, I really need help with this one. 

I think his sexy blonde wearing the (white elephant) red lacy panties from last year would really boost the chopper sales!

Family Member Makes World News Headlines!

World's First!

I'm proud to be part of a truly original world's first event. Our neighbor Tom! owns a worktable manufacturing business and decided to build himself a motorcycle. A pilot and an engineer, he fashioned this amazing creation in his shop, piece by piece, over the last year.

My part? I'm the photographer, marketeer, and article writer. We've already got him published in four different motorcycle magazines - one a cover story. Mikey has GOT to see this!
