My neice, Lauren turned one this past weekend. Andrew is short to follow.

Weird Wisconsin
My Mother and Father-inlaw live in Wisconsin. I'm not saying that is why Wisconsin is weird... but I stumbled across this interesting website dedicated to all the weird things that Wisconsin has to share.
Here is the link.
Sports.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really on the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true, what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold.

If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying." And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is "Probably because of something you did."

Oh yeah... the bus ride. All I can say is, "thank you Jesus for your protection."
Deep Thoughts...
"Better not take a dog on the space shuttle, because if he sticks his head out when you're coming home... his face might burn up."
We all loved Jack Handy. Here are a few quotes from his days on SNL.
Greenville Feb. 25th 2006
These photos are a bit late because I have been a little pre-occupied with my new ipod.
The day before my 30th birthday, my bride met me in Greenville, wisked me away for a romantic afternoon. She took me out to lunch and we just hung out the entire afternoon. No adjenda. No timeframe. Just a date. Just the two of us.
Here are some photos from our day.

This is a great Photoshop plug-in.
