This season I decided to make Cornhole boards (or bean bag toss). My sons (ages 6 and 8) helped me some and it was a fun time. We did a little at a time since it's 105 here in Texas. I got the logos from the UNT Athletic Department when I told them what I wanted to do. Another friend of mine has a sticker machine and made me some stencils so I could paint on the logos. I am also currently building and painting some "can stands" to hold some beverages by each board.
I did put some green LED hole lights which may be a little over the top.
We know what causes this
This blog is dedicated to the thoughts of a father of six. I get this question at least 3 or 4 times per week after telling someone how many children I have, "Do you know what causes that?". Yes, my wife and I know... and we are damn good at it...

Opening Day
Today is a magical day. Baseball has officially come back into the house for one more season. The Texas Rangers did their job today and won 3-2 over the White Sox. We stayed at home and watched the game and ate our own "ballpark nachos". Since it's Good Friday, we couldn't have meat (hot dogs) but we made due. It was a blast watching baseball again. I can't wait for tomorrow night until the Rangers are on again. That's the best part...every night (almost) there will be a game on to anchor our evenings. We may not watch every play, but we always have the game to check in on. It's magical.

Grilled Chicken on The Big Steel Keg
The wife asked me to whip up some dinner so luckily we had some chicken breasts in the fridge. I got the BSK up to 325 or so and dropped in some hickory chips. I rubbed the chicken with some Roast/Steak rub from a local German grocery/meat market (Fishers in Muenster, TX). Then I sauced the chicken with Nolan Ryan's Sweet/Tangy BBQ sauce. Our sides were broccoli cheese rice and steamed veggies. It turned out really well and the chicken had a great smokey, BBQ flavor.
