2.0

I've neglected blogging. I blame Facebook. But I've said goodbye to that addictive networking horse and have been sober now for almost of month. Breathing the social site free air has been fresh and sweet.

So now what? Are there folks our there that still read my blog? Do I have an audience? Let me know. I thank those few that are indeed still here and dedicated. It is because of you that I feel reinvigorated and willing to pen my ramblings once again and share stories, pictures, thoughts, prayers.

There really is so much to tell since I last wrote. Too much really. Thinking it all over I can easily say that our Lord is Good, Gracious, Forgiving, and at work in our lives. We are healthy, we are joyful, we are active, and boy are we tired. Jeanne is more beautiful everyday and Daylon is growing up way too fast for our liking. Jeanne, I don't deserve, and Daylon, what a character. He runs and doesn't walk. He loves it when I toss him in the air and when I chase him. 'up', 'dada', 'ball' (which is Mom to him, heh heh), 'plea (se)'. And he sure does suck down his smoothies! Can it really be February 2011? Daylon coming up on 2 years old? Wow.

How about a few pictures to go along with my 'restarting' to blog?

Uncle Josh took this wonderful photo of me and Daylon playing on the
beach. It was over New Years where Jeanne and her siblings planned a
few days for us all to get away and spend time in wonderful fellowship,
eat glorious amounts of food and play plenty of board games.
Pacific City, Oregon, 2011.

The next photo is of Jeanne and Daylon reading at
Costco. He points to all the letters and numbers
he can and is doing super well recognizing them.
'O?' 'I?'. Cuuuute! Tigard, January 2011.

Portland is quickly becoming known for its food
cart craze. So many varieties, so many treats, so
many yummies. A few weeks ago the three of us
went to one called the Potato Champion. We
devoured our chili fries. And froze our rear-ends
off. PDX, January 2011.

I've abandoned Facebook, but I'm still somewhat active on Twitter. And you'll notice my tweets, twerps, twits, whatever, show up on the side of my blog over there. I make use of a photo tool called Instagram that I sometimes use to edit and post pictures that I then share via Twitter. Keep an eye out for those posts.

A few other things; Jeanne and I are hooked on Cake Boss and Fringe, I'm addicted to running, Daylon still loves wheels, trucks and cars, Jeanne grows more and more stunning every day (yeah, I mentioned it above but I'm trying to score some points here =) ), and Daylon loves the soft serve ice cream from Costco. He helps us out eating most of it.

Question: is BlogPress really a good tool to use for mobile?

Kelleigh! Thanks for the comment! Is there a way to 'follow' your Blog? It doesn't look to be a blogger site?

Anywho, hope you, Mitch and boys are well!
