Forgive me

We had a Round Up at the church to meet and welcome new students to Golden and to our church.

There were friendly faces, good food, fun games, cowboy boots and even a blinged out Jesus belt buckle.

But my favorite part was this:

















hehe. I can't help myself.

Coffee Pots and Creme Brulee


My turn.


Keith mentioned that "blog" came from the phrase "web log." I learned that in an article I had to read for a photo class. I also learned that web cams came about because of laziness. At Cambridge University the computer science department was spread far apart, but there was only one coffee pot for all of the professors to

use. Not a good situation. They got so tired of walking all the way to the one coffee pot that one man set up a camera in front of it that took a picture every few seconds. They hooked up the camera to the server and voila-you could see if there was fresh coffee without ever having to leave your desk.


My question is, who made the coffee?


That story really has nothing to do with anything beside the fact that I thought it was interesting. And I like impressing people with my knowledge.


Here are some photos I took last night (in the future I'll make them bigger...maybe):














This is the view from our balcony. It was a 20" exposure time. That's long.













This is what our recycling bin looks like right now. I promise we don't drink that much soda. Keith had a party for his CSM 101 class. (He made fun of me when I told him I was going to post a picture of this. hah).















He can't stay still for too long. I don't think he likes photos of himself.
But he's so cute! Even in blur!





















Oo la la, fancy vanilla bean paste I ordered from William Sonoma to use when I make creme brulee.













I don't know what to say here and I feel like I should because I wrote about all the other pictures. I just like this one. Call me crazzzzzzzy.


Until another time.

New Beginnings

So this is it.

A new idea turned into an internet "web log" or "blog". It may not always be interesting, but it will be something designed for you, who ever you may be.

How this is going to work is Meghann (my wife) and I will alternate posting blogs. They may be photos, they may be textual entries, or they may be "vlogs". Who knows?

All I know is I'm excited for this new year and I hope to see you around.

So to start us off, my standard vlog (I'm not promising it's exciting)
