Prank Time

I am on a posting frenzy right now. Enjoy!

Story Time!

Luke wanted to tell a story for mom on camera. This is the cautionary tale of "T-Rexy Boomy Doony", a Dinosaur who apparently doesn't wash his car.

Marshmallow Madness!

People have been asking me why I haven't posted a new video in a while.
This video is my response. A full fledged 2 year old is like a F5 tornado bearing down on sanityville.
In hindsight, maybe marshmallows weren't the best snack idea. I thought it would be a cool treat. At least the video is funny.

MUSIC!

Our good friends (and soon to be former Pastor,,,, AAARRGGHH!) has their own blog now. Ashleigh showed it to me today and I was envious of her add-ons.
I just had to add a music player! I went through and found something that each of us (me, Mandy, and Luke) like and a few that we all like. Maybe one day I will explain where all of these songs fit in our lives. Can you guess who loves the "Fish Heads" song?

       

Iron and Wine

Yeah, this is my favorite "band". Just listen.

This is why I love youtube. One of the Engineers at work sent me a slide show of this amazing crystal cave. I've always been a bit of a rock collector (that is why I love my job) but this was just over the top type crystals. These are the largest formations in the world. Pretty amazing stuff. I guess we will be planning a vacation to Chihuahua, Mexico soon.

Luke and I decided to practice our funny faces for the camera. I think he has me beat. Mine are funny but his are cute and funny.

Just chillin out, watching Power Rangers and eating momma's famous "Power Grapes".
"They're GRRREAT!"
Now I see how big the world is to a 2 year old.
Luke wanted a pic of my set of dice.
Daddy had a little booboo at VBS. Needless to say, I don't lie kickball, and I shouldn't slide(especially on broken glass.)

Lukes Portfolio

Luke has started to use the camera. I was hesitant at first because I didn't want him to destroy the camera but then I thought that he might be a photo prodigy.(Plus, he threw a fit) Interesting side note to this photo, he is now using the potty pretty regular.
Note the centering of the subject is pretty good. The cat seems every bit as weirded out as I am that he is taking his picture.
I love the angle of this one. The cow mailbox has long been one of his favorite items in the house.
The bathtub crayons are fun.
His first attempt at a self portrait came up a little short but still pretty funny.

Memory Lane

This might be the greatest concert footage ever. My favorite band (Fugazi), absolutely crammed onto a stage covered with fans, playing one of my favorite songs. But that isn't what makes the video so great, it is the guy in the middle of the background, dancing ( I guess it is dancing) wearing a miniskirt.
I remember being at a concert once and being passed by a bearded man in a wedding dress, complete with veil.
Sorry again for the non-Luke posts but I will get back to work.

Mike Watt + Eddie Vedder + Dave Grohl + Pat Smear = Grunge Bliss

I clearly remember my friend calling me about this "show" because Mike Watt was set to play City Stages a few weeks after this aired. We had never heard of him at that time but wanted to get an idea of what he played.
I nearly passed out when I saw who his "band" was. This is memory lane for me folks, sorry.

"The Rebuker"

Finally getting some pics up.

Here is baby Sam! He looks just like Eli. Mom and baby seem to be doing well.

Luke got to hang out with Spidey on free comic book day at our local shop "Kingdom Comics". Yeah, he was pretty cool with Spidey but TOTALLY freaked out by Supergirl! He said she was pretty but he wouldn't get near her. (Too shy)
Spidey and Green Arrow didn't take it too well when Luke said his favorite hero was The Power Rangers.
He loves his new skateboard.

Hammy!

This is why I like to host a home for Disciple Now for the youth at our church.
Tyler fell asleep in Johnny's bed and that had to be punished.
Concord Rules!

Sorry, just one more Gillian Welch post, I promise. I LOVE this song. I didn't realize that she wrote it.

"Going to Jackson" by Gillian Welch and David Rawlings

This is unbelievable. My favorite bluegrass couple covering my favorite country couple on a couple themed song. I guess it is couples night.
Of course, it isn't as good as the live version of Johnny and June going after each other at Folsom prison but that would be hard to top. Still pretty awesome.

"The Lab" Intro

Here is something I have been trying to get online for a while. Lightening can really mess things up.
Enjoy.
