You Eat Some, I Eat Some

2009-07-11T03:32:00.000-07:00

You know, I take pride in being punctual. I'm rarely ever late for anything especially when it's to help others achieve their destinations. I know I tend to lack a lot of different virtues, and as a human I am probably always letting somebody down one way or another. I'll probably honestly give it fare 50/50 % of the time. Yeah, I'm all that you say I am, so taking pride in my punctuality is just my little way of possibly trying to make up for it? Or to be faithful at something? I don't know, it is what it is. I have a real "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" thing goin on in the form of my being on time. It's not just common curtsy, it's a great way of showing you care. I don't like it when others make me late, it's not the greatest feeling to have to always rely one someone else for transportation for example. But what about when I bend over backwards on a daily basis, just to lend a helping hand to the ones I love so that they can be on time only to find out once I get there that their gonna make ME late? And not just a little late, very, very late. I'm talkin bout thick, black, gunky, car oil late. It makes me feel used, it makes me feel like they never gave a God damn. And after continuously doing this, I finally realize, the reason their life is in a hole in the first place, the reason they need my help so desperately is simply because their in a habit of feeding of the curtsy of others, abusing the trust and friendship of others. These are the friendless...

Happy Birthday My Little Fire Cracker

2009-07-05T22:37:00.001-07:00

Good morning birthday girl!!!

She is such a better reason to celebrate the 4th of July

I know, it's just a cheesecake....
But we Cancers don't care, it's yummy. Don't her smile say that??

Went to the River Walk

Ate at the Rain Forest Cafe. Was a first for both of us.
Great food and service!

Jarrell did great, Odin on the other hand was overwhelmed by it all.
I mistook him for little Tarzan....

Odin was fine at first, he loved the mechanical crocodile

He also found this God Damned Idol fascinating

But than he saw this thing....... Whatever the heck it is.
It tried to have a chat with him right before he broke into tears and screaming.

Topped the night off with the new transformer movie...
Happy Birthday Terri, I love you.

This is just a clip of Odin lost in his little world of Jay Jay the Jet Plane

R.I.P Michael Jackson

2009-06-25T23:23:00.000-07:00

I never cared much for what people thought about him. Seemed like someone always had something derogatory to say about him. And I'll be the first to admit that he probably wasn't all there at times. Would you be if you were raised where every wish came true? If you had all the money and catering to in the world from a child? I doubt it! That's why I've always gave him the benefit of the doubt, everyone deserves one. I believe that the true soul of a musician comes out in his music. It is undeniable that although he was human, and a sinner, he was indeed touched by the Lord in voice, song, and dance. So that is what I will remember him by. May you rest in peace Michael...

DMX

2009-05-31T07:34:00.000-07:00

I grew up listening to DMX, he was one of my most influential role models of my younger years, though his influence on my life wasn't the greatest, and in fact down right destructive. I've grown spiritually as it seems he has. Now I can genuinely admire him now that he is in prison and professing Jesus and his desire to become a pastor once he's out. Prayin for you X.

Psalms 13:3-6

2009-05-14T21:27:00.000-07:00

Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
Lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and
those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
I will RAP to the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.

What We've Been Up To

2009-05-13T13:40:00.000-07:00

About 5 ft. 4 or so, ha ha ha.
And how is Jaydee hanging? Oh, long and strong as usual. Guffaw

Anyhow as some know we were fundrasing to go to Africa but the situation we were in didn't work out, PTL.

So we knocked on doors to find Gods will and a door opened. So we moved, again, to San Antonio, Texas.

We are now staying with Jaydee's mom, Pandita.

We've been helping her at the Juvinile Centers.

Helping hold down the home front.

Then Jaydee Got injured, playing basketball, and has been out of action for about 1 1/2 months now.

He stays home with the kids and does A LOT of driving.

Even though we are a small home there is still a lot of driving to do. Not only for those in our home but we also help drive the other guys in our family till they fix their car.

A Break Through

2009-05-11T09:57:00.001-07:00

The key here is to understand the principle of letting go--not letting go of the victory or of the person or situation you're trying to help, but letting go of the instinct, born of pride, that you have to be the one to do something to change things. The key to rising above and proving that nothing is impossible is in coming to a realization that‚ yes, in the natural it is impossible. It can't be done. It can't change. There are insurmountable obstacles, realistic, reasonable reasons why nothing should improve or change, and why things will always be the way they are. Yet, in spite of all that, there is hope and faith for change, because through Me you can rise above.

Oh God, It Applies

Hey There

2009-05-01T13:08:00.000-07:00

Just in case anyone was wondering we have not fallen off the face of the planet, although we have felt like we have at times, ha ha.

one year

2009-02-28T14:44:00.001-08:00

Yesterday was our first wedding anniversary. We celebrated it in a way that was romantic yet simple. After the kids were asleep we had a picnic at a near by park. Then we came home and with drinks and a movie we finished a wonderful evening. What made the whole thing really special was that the whole evening Jaydee went out of his way to do special things for me. Thank you baby, you really are one in a million.

Jaydee's computer crashed, and I was the one using it when it did. Oh the horror, oh the sadness.

A Little About My Boys

2009-02-05T15:18:00.000-08:00

I've been spending a lot of time with my boys, A LOT of time, and though some times I wish I could have break most of the time I really enjoy it. Odin is soooo cute I love to just watch him and his antics sometimes as each day he come up with some new thing to mimic or try doing. And Jarrell gets cuter every day, I can't wait till he's Odins age as I know he will be just as cute and interesting. Any how a picture speaks a thousand words and a movie that much more, so here are some recent clips of the boys.

Jarrell taking a nap at the park.

It's in his blood.

Odin playing at the park.

My stud muffin.

Jarrell can grab things now thou he is not very accurate yet.

Jarrell can pull himself up now if you help him. He can't sit up by himself yet, but he is getting there.

Odin has started talking "baby talk" and will ramble on and on talking to himself.

Odin loves Blues Clues and dances along with Steve. This isn't a very good video of him, I'll post a better one once I have one.

Happy Birthday Victoria

Happy Birthday Victoria, missing you.

Feel So Good

2009-02-02T20:58:00.000-08:00

The Steel Curtain finally closed on those poor little red birds. I know, because the air smelt like Rotisserie chicken. It was probably the best game I ever seen, with both sides at the top of their game, battling it out. It's already been called one of the greatest Superbowl's in history, because of the history that was made. The Steelers broke 3 records this super bowl: one, for youngest coach to ever win a super bowl, two, for longest play in NFL history when my boy Harrison intercepted a pass at our own in-zone and ran it all the way back for a touch down, and three, for the most superbowl wins by a team, The Pittsburgh Steelers. So I guess that means we're the best in the world like.....oh yeah, Brazil's national team with 5 world cups under our belts. Feels good to be a fan of the greatest. I'm flyin high!!!!

Happy Birthday Timna

2009-01-31T08:50:00.001-08:00

Today is my older sisters birthday. Timna is a great older sister, the perfect kind of older sister. She always there when you need her; for advice when you need it; knowledge when you lack it; insight when you're not sure about something; and comfort when you are feeling down. I think everyone needs an older sister, but to those of you who are the older sisters, thank you for being there for us younger ones. Happy Birhtday Timna, I love you.

I'd also like to say Happy Birthday to my oldest brother, Tim (January 27)
and my sister-in-law Ivana (January 30)

Oh, but they know, they really do. God damn the murderers of innocence. To hell with all of them!!!

Check this lil red neck Prophet out....

2009-01-28T21:52:00.000-08:00

I didn't know if I should cry, laugh, smile, be in a state of amazement??? I'll just say that in a strictly wholesome and Godly way, it made me chuckle....(Fine, "Laugh").

morning cheerios

2009-01-19T09:08:00.000-08:00

So, it's Jaydee's day off today and i was dog tired trying to sleep in. At around 7:30 Odin woke up but Jarrell was still sleeping so I asked Jaydee to put a video on for him and give him a snack. After about ten minutes Odin wanders in plays on the bed then wanders out and I drift to sleep again. Ten minutes later I turn around there stand Odin with a bowl of Cheerios(no milk) half spilled on the bed. He smiles at me then grabs a handful and starts to feed me. I can't help but smile, "Alright I'm getting up."

WE'RE THE AFC CHAMP'S, AND WE'RE GOIN TO THE SUPER BOWL!!!!!!
