Kate's going away party, and my 32nd b-day lunch at The Flying Fish in Ft. Worth

"Going Yard" (way gone) for St. Mary's softball team. We "damn Catholics", as many other teams refered to us, kicked everybody's butt, and ran away with 1st place

Stopped by old junior college stomping grounds on the way to brother-in-laws ranch in Powderly.

Let's start over...

Since joining Facebook, we've really neglected the blog. Mom's on my case about it, so we'll get her rolling again. (Jenn will be pleased too) Gonna try and catch up with the pics, hopefully there will be some kind of order

Drumrole Please.............

Bradley says we are now 2/9th's of the way to our baseball team. God help us...

Almost 19 weeks and everything looks great so far. Thanks for the prayers...and keep em' coming

After 2 Weeks, My Hearing is Back to 100%

Standing next to the stage for 2 hours of very loud PURE AC DC ROCK took a toll on the old eardrums. The ringing has finally subsided. What...a...Show! For Those About To Rock is EASILY one of the great concert songs of all time.

Finally Found Disc w/Christmas Pictures! Coming Soon

Baby Checkup

Went for a "baby" checkup Friday. We're a little over 14 weeks along, and I'm very happy to report that all is well. Ultrasound looked great, and baby has a very healthy heartbeat. We should find out the sex on our next visit (Early February). Still looks like a July 8th due date. Keep Jenn and baby in your prayers. God bless.

HERO 6/6/1919 - 12/17/2008

Hero for family, hero for country (multiple purple hearts), but most importantly, a Hero for Christ. A more unselfish man has never existed, and will never exist. A more loving family man has never existed, and will never exist. A True Hero and Servant for Christ. Our family was/is blessed to have had him for as long as we did. We don't know why God chose to give us the greatest Papa the world has ever known, but he did. For that we are very grateful and very blessed. His legacy will live on in our hearts and memories, until we meet back up with him in Heaven. He was in a league of his own. There's good, there's great...and then there's my Papa.
