Greetings, folks. Welcome to GregandJennifer.com. A wee bit pretentious name for a website, eh? Well, the alternative was BrunetteandBaldGuy.com and that just didn’t sound right.

Quitting Stuff Is Hard

Today we had some ISDN trouble again so right as we were about to start today’s broadcast, we were brought to a screeching halt.
Apparently AT&T was having problems on their end again, but they also suspect something might be wrong on our end, too, so they’re heading out to fix the problem.
In the meantime, Jennifer and I decided to do something we’ve been trying to do for almost two weeks now and that is to record an episode of our Rosary Army Catholic Podcast.

What’s Your Band Name?

For two weeks in a row, Kyle from Popple has posted something cool. He rocks. Maybe it’s because he’s getting married next month, which will make him a more complete person and he is getting closer to completeness.
Anyway, ever wonder what your name would be if you were in a band?
Here’s what you do:

3. Album Art: Flickr Interesting Photo (pick one)
My Band Name: Venezuelan Ministry of …

39 Trees Attacked Us This Weekend.  But We Won.

This was the scene of our backyard on Friday afternoon:
My Dad and my sister Nancy came over to help layout the trees we’d plant on Saturday. We had feeble hopes that we might actually get some digging done on Friday, but it took us a couple hours just to figure out where we’d put all the trees we’d bought the weekend before.
In total, here is what we had to plant:

-20 feet wide
The one Redbud Tree we have will grow:
