Busy, Busy....

It has been a while since we have posted, our apologies. We have gone through some changes in our home. We just completed a est 450 sq feet flagstone patio and added furniture and a great BBQ with an oven; fridge coming soon. The boys wanted to room together, so we painted (yet again) Bryson's room and made it "army" as they wanted. We are waiting on the bunk beds and then we can move them upstairs. Dawson's room will now be the exercise room / office. The family room down stairs has been repainted and carpeted, all furniture was sold off and we have gone to a minimized look for the kids computers and toys. Hopefully it will be easier to keep clean.

Photos will come later.

Next, redo of our master bedroom... paint, carpet, etc. Then on to a new kitchen and exterior of the house as time/cash permits. Loans are for suckers, cash basis is the best. :)

The Godfather

Sandy and I went to go see Paul Vigil's Magician Show at Tracks last Saturday night with Eric & Kim; remember he has been on "Charmed" and "Penn & Teller". It was sorta like a high school reunion and we ran into many people that we have not seen in a long time, including Jason Martin. We haven't seen him since high school graduation, he looks and sounds the same. Paul was a bit hard to track down and talk to after the show because of all the old friends around visiting with him; damn, being a best friend in high school should land you front row seats... right? haha

Funny part was everyone just loving on Eric Garff so much that we started to call him "the Godfather"; if you have seen Oldschool it was a bit like that. Very funny indeed. If you didn't go you missed out and Paul did great, though I could only catch a glimpse or two of his show because it was packed.

Rover Time...

I wanted to post these for Mr Bogdan since we haven't been up there to visit in quite a while. You saw original photos, but these show the 22's that I got for Sandy. Took a while to clean them all up from winter and was worried they were ruined, should have taken them off for winter... I know. However, they cleaned up nice and shiny and definitely better than the stock wheels.

Oh I know you are!

Old friends...

Through work I ran into and old, old friend... Eric Garff. I won't go into the details of the hook up, but we are glad to see him and his wife Kim. Eric then came by last Saturday and hung out watching the latest and greatest UFC show. It was wonderful chatting up old times with Eric and... don't forget... pushing Eric out of the driveway after being stuck. Nothing against Eric, he was the first of a few that we had to free up that night.

Good to have you around Eric; you and your family rocks.

Rick Springfield

Ok.... Funny thing here.

Sandy has always "liked' Rick Springfield since she was young and still follows him now. We tend to go to some sort of concert 3-4 times a year. This last one was in February, in Vegas, and I decided not to go. Yes, I"m married to a groupie...

She went with Alyssa, Brandi (Gull), and Alyssa's bo-hunk... Embert. I laugh at Embert as being the only guy there, but I was told there were guys there. Though, they were either in a wheelchair or, you know... Ok, next subject. Sandy has held Rick's hand before and we won't mention what happened afterwards... ok on to other things... (lol)

This time I was told he was "crushing" on her in the audience, via my daughter and other stories, and was invite on stage to "sing". I know Sandy and love her to death, but I feel sorry for those that heard the magnified monotone singing voice (I have it as well, at least Sandy can sing country). I am though, proud of her since she is afraid of speaking in front of any type of group, let alone singing.

Props to Sandy for singing in front of 21000 people (who knows how many there were)... I will submit photo's as I get them in.

Bryson turned 4 today

Bryson turned 4 today and managed to get himself another bike, this one is a spiderman bike, remote control truck, and gifts from kids at school.


He is very happy.... Yes, that is Alyssa's car behind her, we had to buy premium gas in her to get it to show up in the photo.

Ever been punched?

This is a super funny video that I decided I would like the world to see.
