  • Who’s Packing Your Parachute?

    Who is packing your parachute?

    I’m not the most practiced when it comes to religion, but I do have a very deep well of faith. Listening to this podcast on a weekly basis really keeps me centered and focused on the important things in life.

    Even if you’re not very religious (or don’t believe in a higher power at all) you will find this interesting. We all have people that helped us get to where we are today, and remembering that is very humbling.

    Perspective can be very powerful.

  • Andrew’s Winter Program

    Andrew had is first school performance and Sydney and I were able to attend. This is the raw, uncut footage of what I recorded, so it’s pretty bad. It was hard keeping track of Sydney while holding the camera steady in the other hand. But Andrew did a awesome job and we could not be more proud of him.

  • Thanksgiving Roller Skating Party in Michigan

    I want to give a shout out to my favorite Aunt Shirley, Shirley Magdan for such a awesome time today. Thanks to her renting out a roller rink we had a great family skate this afternoon. I would have never thought to do it, but it was great fun for even the small children. Thanks Aunt Shirley, we love you!

    This video was shot on my new iPhone 4s, and edited using the new FCPx. As a result, the video looks like crap because of pretty much everything being in motion and the rolling shutter problem, and I couldn’t edit in FCPx to save my life, so it’s as good as it’s going to get under the circumstances. But… it’s better than nothing I supposed. Maybe not, you can be the judge.

  • Sydney’s First Bed

    Room by Ikea

    This time we decided not to wait until the bed was being scaled with a single leap over, and got Sydney her own bed. She’s been really good at sleeping on the floor mat at Grandma’s house so we thought she was ready. We waited for it to be assembled before we brought her into the room. I think she was a bit confused at first, not knowing what happened to her crib.

  • Andrew, On Becoming A Pumpkin

    Next time I’ll have to not be sitting right in front of (and below) the TV on the wall. It was hard to hold his attention.
