Rain Rain Go Away

Its raining, its pouring...and our life is boring...I still hate the cold and yuk weather. I prefer to be in shorts and flip flops and I wish I were on a sail boat in the carribean anchored off a small island. I wish I could be swimming and fishing...tonight I would cook some freshly caught fish and grill some fresh veggies that I just purchased over at the island. Renee and I would watch the sunset with a nice glass of red wine...tomorrow, we would get up and do it all over again.

We would check on our kiddos who are all doing fine...Madison is in Europe, writing for a vacation home magazine, Morgan would be working with kids in the Peace Corps and Matthew would have just graduated from Texas A&M and would be running a start up landscaping company with many good accounts. All of our kids would be fluent in Spanish and are all committed to their Catholic Faith...

Ahhh, to dream...

Its still raining, but as Jerry Samu says...this too will pass...

The First Day of the Rest of My Life

Today is my first blog. I have often wanted to document my thoughts in a lasting way that others can read if they want to. Here are the things that are important to me...

Faith
Family
Friends

This is the annual toast that is made at the stroke of midnight at Kiella's. He stands on a chair and makes the toast...always fun.

I am ready for summer...

Crossfit today was Max Lift Squat Cleans...then box jumps...125# was my max.
