Twitter?…

So, my boss discovered yet another way that we can be techy geeks. He has got half the staff (including myself) on this new thing called twitter. It is designed to answer the question… What are you doing? I is web based but it is designed to link to you cell and arrive as a text. The idea is you invite your friends to subscribe to your “twitter” account, and so then you will send a text to one location and it is automatically sent out to your friends. (one the ones who want to receive them… not EVERYONE) So, the point… if there is one, is to just update your friends on what your up too. Saying things like… “Just saw the new Indiana Jones! Go SEE it!” or “just got a new bike! And I love it!” To random for you? Give it a try and you will be hooked! www.twitter.com and watch the video on top.

In the Windy City!

Hey Guys! So, I had the chance to go to Willow Creek Community church in Chicago a week ago for a Children’s Conference! It was quite the experience! I am still trying to download all of the amazing insights that we can use to improve our effectiveness to reaching Kids for Christ.

First off, when we landed in Chicago, we were walking through the airport and all the sudden, we ran into THE AMAZING RACE! All the teams were racing to get to San Pablo, Brazil, and we just happened to be standing by their gate! It was unforgettable.


Then we headed to Willow Creek Church, and WOW!!! That place was huge; 25,000 member congregation. It was just unbelievable to see something like that. But better then that, it was cool to see so many people fired up to serve kids that week, and 44 countries represented as well!



The big bad Cornerstone Childnen’s team! For the record… 1# in laser tag!

They even have a lake stocked with fish!

Check out this video of the one and only legendary Glen Keane. He is one of Disney’s most prominent animators, and was responsible for characters such as Ariel (The Little Mermaid), The Beast (Beauty and the Beast), Aladdin (Aladdin), Tarzan (Tarzan), and many more! (Video)

Wedding Craze





We can’t believe how fast time is moving. Paula, our wedding photographer, wanted to take us around before the big day to take some practice poses and snap shots. As you can see she is very talented, to be able to take our goofing around and turn it into something so beautiful.

Art for the Holiday

During this holiday season Bree decided to get her hands back into her art… To me it is the most exciting news around. She is most certainly gifted and it is just amazing to watch her. Her gift is so unique and amazing; I find myself so speechless as she unveils one after another. She has been praying about what God has in store for her gift and how she can use it to serve and Glorify God through it. I just know that it’s amazing and I just can’t wait to see what God is going to do.







We Love Christmas!!!

Have I ever told you I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!! This is always such an amazing time of the year FULL of fun times and memories… this year has been no exception. We have had a blast with all of the decorating and Christmas parties. Buying and wrapping gifts, and eating way too much food… I mean cookies. This year we went out as a family and picked the perfect Christmas tree, and the “perfect” tree just happened to be the biggest one too!




This year I was also able to decorate our Kids Church rooms at the church. It has been such a great experience creating the Christmas program for the kids which this year will lead into a Gospel teaching. We’re praying for a powerful weekend.


Dec. 25th!!! Christmas Morning!!!



Christmas in San Jose and a Concert to boot!

I thought it was about time for Bree and I to go on a date and I decided to surprise her. So, San Jose here we come…

San Jose has a great Downtown Christmas-in-the-Park and so after a dinner, that was our first stop.


We rocked the rink and tested our skating legs.



Found an abandoned carnival and Bree pretty much made me sick on the Tea Cup…



Then as we were walking to the car to “head home”, and we walked by a concert hall and Bree saw the sign… RELIANT K/SWITCHFOOT show! She pretty much lost it, so I pulled out of my pocket two tickets… She was just a little excited!

Reliant K even made it SNOW INSIDE the concert hall!

But to make it better, Bree and I we’re talking about how cool it would be to meet switchfoot because Bree’s aunt is very close with the lead singer and lead guitar in the band. We would have a conversational in! About 1 min after that conversation, a lady came up as asked us, “You wouldn’t want to meet Switchfoot would you?” We pretty much died in front of her as she handed us the backstage passes!!!

Ya it was amazing! AND! They completely knew Bree’s Aunt! She only mentor’s Tim’s (Lead guitar) wife! Just crazy! Then when we got home, we got online to contact Bree’s mom in PNG, she told us all we had to do was tell them about Bree’s parents! Bree’s mom WORKED for Switchfoot in their early days, and Bree’s dad helped John (Lead singer) put in his Jacuzzi!

What a fun time out!
