Hangover anybody?

What a weekend...I had way too much fun! I'll sum up the nights:

:: FRIDAY ::
The Nadas played an awesome show and the place was packed! Last I heard there was about 250 that had paid at the door-which if you know anything about The Nadas-you know that things could get a little crazy. After the show I found myself on the bus, across from Mike and Smitty (see below picture).

Then, we ended up parking at their destination for the night; a hotel located not much more than a mile from my house. Jon was passed out, Mike and the rest of them were in back, so I decided to walk to my place. I said the goodbyes and off I went. I stopped at my parents on the way, took my dad's Schwinn and cruised. In the buzz of things I was tempted to continue on, however I wisely resited.

:: SATURDAY ::
The wedding was short and sweet, and everyone looked great. The reception was held on the 12th floor of the Clarion in downtown Sioux City, which made for a killer setup. The food was great, and the drinks were plentiful. Between the friends that were staying in the hotel, the elevator rides down to the bar, the near emotional flood after the alcoholic flood...It made for yet another unforgettable night. Here is a picture of Jon (left) and Kiko (right)-two of my best friends:

Kiko and I ended up getting a ride to his sisters back in South Sioux, and at about 4:30 I decided I'd talk another walk. This time, it was a little chillier and about a mile and half farther. Hey, it sure beats driving ya know?

Time to end this little note for the day, I hear Isabella in her crib kicking her feet. Here are a few new pictures of my angels for everyone to enjoy-they're getting too big too quick!

The ever changing, never ending list.

I hear a lot about bucket lists. I dunno, maybe I have one. More of my 'lists' are current lists, 5 year lists, 25 year lists...but I guess they all could be bucket lists because we don't know how much time we've got at the dance. Over the past 2 years my wants have drastically changed. I've been focusing on simpler things, true things. Not reaching so much for more, just trying to enjoy what is here more. That goes for family, friends, opportunity, relationships...not material things. (Except I really really want a canoe or kayak so I can get out on the water soon) Is it possible to make a list that won't change?  Is it possible to remain true to the values of a 34 year old father, when those very values seem to have shifted based on life experiences? Are the items on my list too specific? Maybe... Love Honesty Compassion Health Fun More to come on this one I'm pretty sure.

Take us out to the ball game.

Last night we ventured over to the Explorers baseball game after dinner, it was great. Jordan talked to the X's pitching crew out in the bull-pin for a while, and they ended up giving him a ball. He's such a sports guy! The pitcher that gave him the ball said, "Can you give it a throw?" and so he did...over his head out into left field! Of course my diva Bell had more fun doing spins and drinking a slush, but that's all good. I love my family.
