Hello children!

It's been waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long.

I do apologize.

P.s., I'm getting married.

The End.

Hello children!

Is it so wrong?

Is it so weird?

Is it so...right, that I want this?

The End.

Me: "You know the Bass is good if you feel violated."

Hellooooo children!

As always, my deepest and sincerest apologies for lack in postagings.

Since my last post we've had two lovely snowy days. I was able to take pictures of one after I got home from work for one of those two days. Happy times, happy times. It was gloriously beautiful that day too. You look around and all you see are shades of white. black and grays all around in the scenery. I repeat: gloriously beautiful. I need to upload those from my camera and post them (we all know how long that'll take, so, again, my apologies).

I have also had my Mac fixed. Almost a year ago we had to take it in to get a mini dvd disc unstuck from the disc drive (Thanks, Dad, for finding out that they DO NOT read those types of discs.). I had forgotten about that and so months, and I do mean months, later I go to load a movie onto my computer and it wouldn't read it. I thought it was a faulty disc and left it at that conclusion. A month or so later I stick a cd in to load onto my iPod and it wouldn't read it either.

Crap.

Longer than necessary story short: I took it to the Apple Store, finally, and they replaced it. Thank God it was still under Apple Care Warranty, 'cause it cost me $0.00. AND! Not only did they replace my disc drive but also the entire keyboard, track pad and covering. There was a crack along the edge from where my wrists rest when I type.

The time has come, once more, for StandOut Youth Conference. March 5-6 will be in Phenix City, AL; April 9-10, Camp Pearl in Louisiana. Those who might possibly be interested in said conferences, or even those being held later in the year, click here for the website.

In preparation for said conference(s) we've been having some well-needed band practices. The last full rehearsal we had was this past Saturday night. We also had "promotional" pictures made for the site and such. Some of said pictures are posted below. Enjoy!

Well, kiddies, I've just gotten home from work and am about to do a little bit of reading to wind down by. Peace out!

The End.

Hello children!

As promised, I have some pictures. Yay!

I chose a few from Halloween thru now-ish to show you. So, without further delay, enjoy.

Halloween

Above left: Aidyn Trick-or-Treating with myself and Kristi (the mommy). Above right: Rosalie asleep in my arms in her flower costume.

First Trip to the Zoo!

Patrick, myself and Kristi took Aidyn and Rosalie to the zoo; the girls' first time.

Left to Right: Myself and Aidyn looking at the monkeys, or "ah-ah". Patrick, or Pack (what Aidyn calls him), lifting Aidyn up to hang on the tree. Rosalie with a leaf. Hahaha! We had Aidyn playing in the leaves and thought Rosalie needed a leaf picture.

Born December 4, 2009. AND! It snowed that night! Yay! My lil' buddy. He makes stink-eye faces at you, which equals glorious. Hahaha! He's just started smiling this past week, according to his mom.

Aaaaand, speaking of snow, we were under a Winter Weather Advisory all day today. Totally jipped. We had flurries of snow and sleet spastically through the day, but nothing major. As stated before, totally jipped.

Anyway. That's all for today/tonight. Peacin' out!

The End.
