  • Missed the alarm – furiously drove to north ogden. Barely made it to T’s wrestling at topslam. #
  • Crazy – kids trying to cut weight and make their class. Nutso. #
  • T just called all excited. He won his first wrestling match with a pin. He is in the winner’s bracket and very pumped. #
  • Go T-bone #
  • The thing with dress rehersals is all the sitting around and waiting. We are doing a whole lot today (sitting). #

Rehersal for Christmas Concert

Originally uploaded by david_oldroyd

We are here at the cathedral of the Madeline for our dress rehersal for Dave Schmidt’s christmas concert.

It is a really cool cathedral and will make for an awesome concert. I am excited. A bonus is that we are having a huge snowstorm outside. Christmas is nearly here.

Vietnamese Wedding

A while back Kris and I went to a co-worker’s wedding. It was very nice, but very different as well. All in all it was fun and I’m glad that we went.

Making Bread and Cookies

Filed under: Uncategorized — dto @ 10:46 am

I had fun with Kiki and Lexi making bread and sugar cookies. We didn’t bother with cookie cutters and let our creative sides take flight. They tasted good, but the experience was better.

Sadness

Filed under: Uncategorized — dto @ 10:37 am

Kris just told me about our neighbor that was killed in a head-on collision on the first. It seems like every time we start feeling bad about ourselves and start engaging in self-pity something wakes us up and makes us realize that we are so truly blessed. It is too bad that it takes something like this to “wake us up”.

I love my family and life so much. I have been blessed in so many ways. I have no reason to complain or be sad. Life is great and I need to approach each day as if it was my last. I need to cherish and enjoy my family more. I loved hanging out and rolling on the ground last night with Kiki before bed. I need to do this more. Life and time is so precious. What a lucky man I am.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Al’s family. Al was a great man, full of fun and love and caring. He will be greatly missed on this earth. His family can be proud of him and his achievements.
