Teeth oh bright and shiny

About a month ago I got my braces off. YeeHaw!!! So, with many delays, I have finally gotten around to taking a really horrible picture. Enjoy!

21 days and counting

Ladies and Gentlemen…. with only 3 weeks remaining, I am very very excited.

I just got back from the orthodontist and he has scheduled my braces removal appointment for July 9. Just 3 small weeks away! I am sure it will go quickly, but boy oh boy, I just can’t wait.

Chris sez: Welcome to my kitchen!



Every Thursday night, I have a chance to cook for my boyz. Last night was a return to Praha, where we had a wooden plank, filled with bell peppers, tomatoes, olives, cucumbers, and a big hunk of roasted pork. Then, wine, of course. Followed by the fresh, now in season, california strawberry shortcake. 1 long word….. yummydoodle!

31 cent ice cream

I just got this in my email today, but Baskin Robbins is having a 31 cent scoop night in a couple of weeks.


To sing up for a reminder, go here.

Crowder Band

Normally, I wouldn’t put up band flyers and stuff, but I went to their web site and the ‘video’ is absolutely hilarious. Check it out by clicking on the picture.

My Music Recordings

Not sure if anyone actually reads this blog, but I just put up a new page with some old recordings of myself. I have had several people asking for/about my singing lately, and I figured that this is a good way to let people hear what I ‘used’ to sound like.

Walk down memory lane

I was futzing around on VideoEgg today, and I saw the first (and so far only) Video Blog entry for Sproutit. Take a look….

Vacation rustic style

so, last week I came back from vacation at the family cabins in Colorado. Buffalo Creek is a little mountain town about 50-60 miles south of Denver.


My brother and I both brought our bikes up and we were able to get in 3 solid rides. It was tough b/c all of the rides were climbs, in high altitude. It was tough, but the scenery was great.


IN addition to the rides, we cooked most of our meals on a wood burning stoves, played card/board games every night for 2-3 hours, read Harry Potter 7, cut down trees, slept in, and ate tons. Yup….it was a great trip.

Post Ride pictures

The folks at Tour de Peninsula had a phtographer out at the ride taking action shots. So, here are a few of me. I think my arms look chubby.

What a great day

I came into work and my colleague, Katya, said “boy, you sure do have a lot of energy today.” I began to tell her the reasons why.

  1. I had a great pumpkin waffle with vanilla and cinnamon for breakfast.
  2. The check from the property land sale hit the bank today.
  3. I paid off 3 credit cards this morning.
  4. My jeans had about 2 spare inches of room (i have been changing my diet and workouts).
  5. I was able to movefrom my 2nd to 3rd belt loop.
  6. I’ve got tickets to see Bourne Supremacy tonight.

Yea, so I am chalk this one up as a great day - even before the day is done.
