Latest updates from the land of milk and honey.

Well Jace finally had his first football game last Saturday. He had fun and played really well. He actually scored our only touchdown on an interception which he ran back for a touchdown. I will try to upload video of it eventually. I was really the only bright spot in the game as there was a lot of mental mistakes and listening mistakes. It was a definite learning experience for me. Jace's team was definitely the better team out there but just didn't execute the plays. There was about 4 different times they should have scored but made mental mistakes. Thank goodness we have two practices this week. The worst part of the whole loss was the team was the Patriots, and true to form, the coach whined and cried on every play to get penalties. Wow that was pretty sad to see a grown man doing that. We finally started up ward softball and had our first practice on Saturday afternoon. To give you an understanding of the commitment of our ward, we had 3 people show up to practice and that includes me. Last time we played as a ward, we were mercy ruled, I think we scored 1 run that game. Hopefully we will get more people to turn out for the next practice, because the first game is on Friday. After all that physical activity and fun on Saturday, both Kendra and myself got sick. I think it was from the scalping of the grass and the big storm that blew through in the middle of Jace's game. That was a lot of fun to try to throw a football in, 25-30 mph winds, I felt sorry for the kids as it was their first game. We both ended up with a really bad cough and stuffy/runny noses. She ended up sleeping in our bed that night, so needless to say both Laura and myself got very little to no sleep. Hopefully the next update will be more entertaining, until then.

Peace!

More Music! Yeeeaaah!

I put some new songs on. The first two are for Becky. I put them in that specific order in case you can't bear to listen to the second of the two songs. The other songs are. can you guess. more Pink Floyd. Welcome to the machine, Have a Cigar, and Learning to fly. What a group of classics, WOW.

Asta!

Can't find it!

I can't believe it, I have been looking for a comment window for my main page but to no avail. I might have to brush off my IT degree and make one. Wow that would not be fun. Oh well back to searching the web for hours. If anyone knows of an app I can use that would allow comments on the main page kind of like a comment window, let me know.

Peace.

No Pressure Here!

OK, so it has been brought to my attention that I need to post more frequently. Frankly I am a bit concerned about the quality of the content being affected by the quantity. I want all to know that all efforts to increase production have been made. If you see some post in the future filled with blah blah blah then you know that the quantity has exceeded the quality. Unfortunately my family doesn't make enough news on a daily basis to be entertaining. I have been toying with the idea of just making stuff up though. Imagine the freedom that would give whilst making a post. Wow. I did, on an interesting note, change the water filter in my fridge yesterday. What an adventure. I have been told my services are in high demand for helping to set up Gymboree stores around the valley. I'm sure it is because they only have to pay me 7.50 and hour. Well that's my random info of the day. Hopefully I will have better news on the morrow.

Until ting jiu jouh.

New slideshow, yeehaw.

I just put up a new slideshow. It is from the fashion show we just had for Gymboree. My three and a cousin as well as some of the other workers children were the models. It was good fun for the kids and the parents got to take some pictures too. There was a magazine there as well taking pictures, we just have to figure out who it was so we can get the pictures. Jace was supposed to have his first football game on Saturday as well but they had a problem with the lights so they cancelled it. He was pretty upset, although I , being his coach, was slightly happy as it gave us another week to practice. The team and kids are awesome and practice really hard. I think that they can win the super bowl for their league. They are really excited. Jace is still disappointed that it was cancelled and complains about it continuously. We had the primary program today in church and the kids all did fantastic. Hope all is well with everyone.

Peace.

New and Improved!

In case you didn't notice, I have changed the background from a beautiful Hawaiian beach scene (one of my favorite places) to that of my most favorite place in the world, Hong Kong. What a beautiful skyline eh! I am sure Laura won't appreciate this background as much as she is partial to Hawaii (the place we met) and I told her that is why I picked it for a background. Well I got a little antsy today and decided to change the background.
I also posted some of our old pics from about 06 I believe. The kids were so cute and very cooperative. It was just after church and the kids were already in the house when Laura got the idea to take pics. Jace wasn't happy as he was half way undressed when Laura told them all to go back outside. If you notice in one of the pictures, Jace's pants are still unbuttoned and belt undone, I believe. Aah memories. I will try to get some new photos soon. Also if there are any songs you wish to have added to the album, let me know. I will try to keep it up to date.

Chidi Gin!

Pink Floyd Rocks!!!

Sad news on the music front this week as one of the founding members of Pink Floyd died. Anybody who knows me knows that Pink Floyd is my number one favorite in music. Fortunately they haven't been producing anything for a long time so there isn't any loss of new music but it is still sad none the less. Only reason I was reminded of this was the music came on was Pink Floyd.
Peace y'all.

Music Yeah!!!!!

I just put up a fairly nice collection of music for your listening pleasure. Some of my favorites as well as some of my childrens requests in there. Scroll through and find something you like. It should make your day better!!!!!

Ha.

Hola from the 480!

Sup y'all. I know you are surprised to see someone from this family posting something and creating a blog. Just wanted to let people know we are actually all alive and well. I have been spending all of my time watching the youngest of the kids, Kendra, during the daytime. That usually consists of puzzle hour, where she does 4 or 5 puzzles over and over until she gets frustrated. Then there is movie time which she really enjoys, and finally beauty salon time. That usually happens once or twice a week where she feels she needs to have her finger and toe nails painted. The rest of the time is spent doing homework once the boys get home. I also serve as coach for Jace's football team. We practice twice a week and have our first game of the season coming up on the 20th. Jace is excited as the first game is at night and under the lights. Pretty awesome. Robbie is waiting for his tackle football season to start. He practices with Jace's team from time to time to keep up on his football skillz. Laura has been super lazy lately and lies around the house all day. She says her goal is to be a queen so everybody will serve her and she won't have to move an inch. To all you who know Laura, that was pretty funny. She is always busy and working non stop at Gymboree, while in her free time she is busy writing her 2nd book. She is really excited about it and I must say, as a non biased party, it is pretty good. That's about it for us, I hope all is well for you all out there and drop us a line if you get some time.

Peace!
