Livin' in BlackBerry Heaven

King Henry Chasing a Chip (video)

This was freakin’ hilarious. Nicole threw a chip down to Henry on the floor; it landed on his back. He spent a good 3 or 4 minutes, before I could get my BlackBerry out to video him, spinning around in circles looking for the chip. This little guy makes us laugh every night. Sent via [...]

Thinking about happy Father’s Days goneby with my Dad …

My Dad has been gone for 11 years. Stinkin’ cancer took him from us at 59 years young. I thank God everyday for the Christian influence my Dad had on my life. I miss you Pop!

Father’s Day with the Family was Awesome!

I am so lucky in many, many areas of my life. The most important is my loving family. I owe many thanks for a wonderful Father’s Day to my Nicole, my Mom, and of course my two angels (pictured below), Jennifer and Sydni. I love you guys!

Sydni’s Guitar Recital

We had a great time yesterday seeing all of the kids perform with their instruments – guitar, violin, piano, vocal. I commend the City of Norfolk’s Parks & Recreation department for hosting such fabulous events and programs for the children of our city.

Tomorrow is My Angel’s Big Day

One more day with my angel before her big day. As we’ve just finished packing and I have 10 minutes to chill before heading to Newport News for the weekend and rehearsal tonight, I needed to get down in words my Father’s impact on Jennifer’s life. For those that don’t know, my Father passed away [...]

2 Days And Counting

In two days my oldest angel will be married. In two days my angel will begin her new life. In two days I will have a new son-in-law in my life. In two days I will live the happiest day of my life watching my angel smile and live out her dreams. In two days [...]

3 Days to My Angel’s Big Day

3 days. In 3 days my angel will be married. I’ve spent much of this week thinking about Jennifer’s life as a child and the many cherished times we spent together. I can only pray that she is able to live the same love with her children one day. I love my daughters and the [...]

More Reminiscing with the Wedding in 4 Days

Today has been a bit busier than I wanted it to be with work. But this afternoon I get a few more minutes of reminiscing about the amazing years of watching my angel grow into the beautiful, intelligent woman she is today. She will always be my baby. On this fourth day before the big day, [...]

The Joys of Fatherhood – Thank You Jae!

Time brings us many surprises. Along with life, time brings us many joys. The past nearly 25 years has been the most joyous that any Father could have ever hoped for. This upcoming weekend my oldest daughter, Jennifer, is getting married. A chapter will close in her life and another wonderful chapter will begin with her [...]

Happy Mother’s Day to My Beautiful Mom!

I know a lot of people will say this exact same thing today on this Mother’s Day. But my Mom really is the best. She has lived her life dedicated wholly to her 3 boys and wonderful grandchildren without regard for her well-being. If there is ever a person to fit the mold of God’s perfect [...]

#HRVA Snow Storm Jan 2010 [video]

Nicole and I took Reggie for a long walk around our neighborhood on the Lafayette River in Norfolk during the height of the weekend snow storm. Fun! It’s a little hard to tell in the video but the snow was falling steady, the wind was blowing about 20 MPH, and it was about 25 degrees [...]
