Wise Words

A customer recently wrote these words in an email auto-signature - I really liked them so I thought I would share. Enjoy.

Watch your thoughts, they become words.
Watch your words, they become actions.
Watch your actions, they become habits.
Watch your habits, they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes...your destiny.

Cocoa Returns

Can you believe it. Cocoa our male cat has returned from a 6 month vacation. He took off the first week in October and showed back up today. He obviously had been taken care off well over the winter, not sure by who, but he is fat for sure!

Welcome home Cocoa!

TV Commercial

Jenna and Jacob got an opportunity to be in a Junior Achievement Commercial what fun it is! Jacob will have a speaking part toward the end of the commercial. This is a picture of Jenna who was on camera while AJ, the Fox47 weatherman, did his speaking part! We will post the commercial when I get a copy!

Jacob - SERIOUS and FUN

Jacob is such a cool kid! Here are two pictures that show both sides of this young man. He is serious in comptetition and loves to compete in board games. Then the other picture was while I was getting my hair cut and he runs around and cracks everyone up! What a wonderful mixture of ability to be serious and poking fun at himself!

Jenna - Easter 2008

Jenna's Easter outfit - I think she looks great - clearly an objective Dad's opinion. Jacob looked great for Church today too but he ran off, he is a volunteer to work the kid's desk, and was no where to be found at the time to take pictures! Anyway, it was great fun, great worship and Laurie and her family got baptized.

Solar Powered Car

My cousin Jeff was in town, this is a guy who graduated from West Point and was a tank commander in Germany - he and I built this solar powered car, watch what it does when it hits the shade! What fun, we were like two kids - it is a good thing I made him read the directions! I am thinking we should be able to get some "stimulus" money for working with alternative power!

Jacob's Last Elementry School Fair

Today, was Jacob's last elementry school fair, he was excited to tell me that. Jenna enters this same school next year, so he will be going for the next 5 years too he just doesn't know it! The kids and I had a blast, bowled, played hockey, putted golf balls, ring toss, picked the floating duck, bean bag toss, and face painted! What fun we head!
