Sunday was Buccaneer Day at the McKinnon house. We dusted off our Tampa Bay shirts and dug our game faces out of the closet. We also thought it would be fun to have smoked turkey legs for lunch just like the ones you can get at Raymond James Stadium. Eating a giant turkey leg makes...

still number one
It’s game day once again! We love football season. Today the Gators will take on another SEC team, the Kentucky Wildcats. This will be the Gators first away game of the season. Although we have not lost to Kentucky in the past 2 decades, this week the Gators are also battling a case of the...
Happy Birthday Allie!
Today is our niece Allie’s first birthday! She had a princess themed b-day party. Her cake had the huge candle pictured on the left. Allie’s mom, Jessica, and Grandma Madelyn made tutu’s for all the little girls at the party. All the little boys got foam swords. It was a very cute party! Here’s the...
shox & aww
It’s going to be fun to have Lane Kiffin and his Volunteers down in the SWAMP today. All of his pre-season talking has given the Gators more motivation than they know what to do with. Don’t forget, CBS at 3:30! UPDATE: Gators won 23 to 13! As a side note, I’ve been wanting some Gator...

Here I am right after I finished my face melting guitar solo during some rock band. As you can tell, it made Sean really excited. Elyse...

Elyse had also just got some new receiver gloves and had been wanting to try them out. Here she is showing them off… ORANGE AND BLUE! I also grilled some...
Gator Bait!
I can’t think of too many better ways to start a day than with a Gator football game. It comes on at 11:21 (weird) our time, so as we roll out of the bed we will be turning on the tv. Watch out Troy…we’re coming to get you! Oh yeah, good luck Casey (& Loren)....
Kidnapped
In 2006 NBC had a TV drama series called “Kidnapped.” For some reason (which we cannot figure out) it got canceled after only 5 episodes. NBC got some cool points by completing the series and releasing it on DVD. We had never heard of this series before but the St. John’s gave the set to...
