More Updates

Wow. Again, we’re not very good at this whole blog thing. I apologize.
Not too much going on here.
Spent the whole summer trying to get our pool clean and now our pump is pretty much dead. Oh boy :0)
At the end of July, me and the wifey took about 10 days off and went to California. We went to Anaheim first and hit Disneyland a couple days in a row. Checked out L.A., Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Then we drove to San Diego for the San Diego Comic Con. We took a ton of pictures, which I promise you’ll see soon.
I got ‘let go’ from GoDaddy on 8/20, after being there over 3½ years. This has been both a pain and a blessing. While I’ve been frantically looking for a job and worrying about money, I also get to spend Sundays with my wifey and I don’t have to commute 350 miles per week. Now, put down your torches and pitchforks for a sec. It’s not GoDaddy’s or Bob Parson’s fault. It is the fault of the current manager of my department, Frank Taylor. One day, I have no doubt that his incompetence will get him fired.
Anyways, enough about that. On to happier things.
The kidlettes (Grant and Danica) are back in school. Danica is now in the 4th grade and Grant is LOVING going to St. Mary’s. He is also on the Cross Country Team. Logan is still plugging away at Hollywood Video and just got back from a Vegas trip with a few friends of his. Greer has been keeping up with his music and after a couple trips to California, has made a few music videos. If you haven’t seen them, check them out, their pretty awesome.

I turn 25 (yikes) this Saturday and my lovely wife turns 25 in a couple weeks. And . . . . thats about it. We will see you all, at Chris and Nicki’s wedding!
Hmm . . .

So it occured to me this morning that we really stink at this whole blog thing. Our last post was last year, how cruddy is that!
Do we just have nothing to talk about? Possibly
We will try to do better and try to be a little more interesting. A few cool things have happened in the last few months so stay tuned for a “catching up” blog! Sorry to be so lame guys. I know that we have about 2 loyal readers, so I feel bad for at least not updating things for them. But, like I said, we will try to be better a tad more entertaining =o)
Thanks for continuing to check back for updates!
Even Darcy is sorry!
Busy, Busy, Busy

Sorry everyone.
It’s been quite a while since I’ve updated this. Been really busy.
November went by really quickly. We spent Thanksgiving with Nikki’s family. As a nice change, we actually got our Christmas decorations up pretty early in December. The last couple of weeks have pretty much been spent decorating, baking and finishing up our Christmas shopping. This last Saturday we went to the GoDaddy Christmas Party. Bob (Parsons) always puts on quite the party, but this year, he outdid himself.
He rented Chase Field. Tables for 2,600 people were setup on the field, along with multiple bars, gourmet buffets, a desert bar and arcade games. Guests included Olympic Swimmer Amanda Beard, WWE’s Candice Michelle, Danica Patrick (and her Indy car) and the Gin Blossoms. Here are some photos Nikki took with her phone.
Anyways, we are both very excited to see everyone for Christmas. This Friday we’ll be having Christmas with my Dad’s side of the family. Saturday, we’re heading down to Tucson to see Nikki’s family and we’ll be there until early Christmas morning, when we drive back up to Phoenix. See you all soon!
We’ll Miss You Grandpa

The most amazing man I have ever met in my life past away yesterday. I wish I could write more about this now but, I just can’t keep my composure. Grandpa, I love you so much and I can’t put into words how much I miss you. I promise, if God see’s fit to let me up there, we’ll hit some yard sales.
Excuse me…..
