First Blog Post EVER

Wow, only took me a year to post my first blog since I created my account on blogspot. Well, let's get to it. Lately I've been feeling like keeping a journal and figured this would be the easiest way to accomplish this. As of late my ability to express myself has been limited to school papers that I've been writing. Needless to say I haven't have a chance to really think about or put on paper (or on keyboard as it were) the happenings and countless blessings I've encountered recently. I also haven't had too much time to work on increasing my talents; music, singing, sports, spiritual gifts, being a better father and husband, etc, with school and work taking most of my time. So....with all that being said, it is my hope that with this blog at least I will have a way to quickly jot down the feelings and wishes I have for the future of those talents so I can solidify my need to work on them and have some sort of accountability for them. Now, don't get me wrong. There will be plenty of time for mischief along the way and most of my posts will be nothing short of pointless. But, my hope in all of this is that will have a record of what I've learned on this journey of life and have a list of the different places my nose has led me. ;) I added some pics so you know who the main characters are in this story. Yes, I am out numbered. 3 girls and one boy. But don't worry, I'm holding my own....barely. The two little ones are awesome and Laura, well, let's just say she's amazing at this whole mommy thing. I'm excited to see what the next 8 years of marriage will bring us.
