Who let the Dogs Out?

Afternoon at the dog park!

Ryan's Sister's Graduation Party

Ryan's Sister is done with HIGHSCHOOL!!!!!!!

Some of you may appreciate this slide show! About a year ago, I realized that I had a pretty large collection of T-Shirts from different events in ministry that I had been a part of. I snapped pictures of them and pulled a little slide show together. Some of you may enjoy this more than others, but I thought it was pretty cool!

Rocky Mountain National Park (Colorado)

I was in Denver, CO for Group Publishings 2009 VBS field test and they took us on a trip into the mountains! It was great! The weather was perfect and the landscape was amazing!

Back in Chicago

I had the chance to hang out in Chicago for a few days with a good friend of mine from College. We got the chance to go downtown and catch a White Sox game! I snapped a few pictures along the way!

Our Las Vegas Trip!

Dana and I got to spend the weekend in Las Vegas! One of the highlights for us was having the opportunity to fly with a friend in his 6 seat airplane! It was AMAZING!

The trip was a great and it was so much fun being able to catch up with friends!

CandyZone 2007

Each year, our church holds an event called CandyZone. This community event provides a family friendly and safe alternative to the traditional trick or treat activities. Each year our staff dresses around the same theme. This year that theme was Hippies! Who knew I would look this good with long hair!

Dana was a "Take 5" Candy Bar. Each year at CandyZone, we play a game called Candy Conspiracy where kids get a card with the names of about 10 Candy Bars on them. The kids go around the event and try to find as many of the candy bars as they can!

I made this sweet shirt! Can you believe that!

Our Children's Ministry Staff at Cornerstone Fellowship!

Corn Maze!

With all of us getting older, it is tough to get us all together, but we all found a time that worked and we headed to Halfmoon Bay for the Day with both sides of the family! We went through the corn maze, picked out pumpkins, went to dinner, and watched the sun set at the ocean!

Dana's Birthday!

We had a great day in San Francisco for Dana's 23rd Birthday!
We both had the whole day off and took Bart into the city!

Check out some of our pictures!

Oakland A's Game on the 4th of July

Dana and I had the chance to attend an A's game on the 4th of July! We had great seats in the second row!
Despite VERY hot weather, we enjoyed the game and were able to make it to see fireworks that night with
friends and family!

Half Moon Bay

Ryan was able to get work off Saturday night so he and Dana got to spend the whole day at the beach. The weather was just perfect at 70 degrees!

It was Savanna's first trip to the beach and she loved it. She loved exploring and digging in the sand. She did not like the water much, but after a while she got used to it and would venture closer and closer to the water before heading back up to our blanket.





It was a very relaxing day that we both had been needing!
