During the winter of 1994, I was working at Marine World Africa USA, and the park was much slower than during the rest of the year, so I decided to pick up a second job. Across the freeway was a Target, where my friend Mark’s brother worked, so I applied and got hired in the… Read More All I Want For Christmas Is You
While in high school, this was our logo for the matching band, and I loved it. I used it to print Rally Band shirts for the members, and it was even on our member jackets. In 2024, I found the logo again, made a coffee cup for Mom, Debi, and me, and even sold four… Read More Clayton Valley Marching Band
Our first week-long camping trip was back in 2013, when we rented an RV and explored Yellowstone National Park for the very first time. I’d always dreamed of traveling in a camper—being able to drive from place to place with everything you need right there with you felt like pure freedom.

It was a whirlwind of activity, starting on June 1st when we took down that massive blue spruce tree in the front yard—it was taller than our house and just growing bigger! Once it was gone, we did some landscaping and absolutely loved the fresh, open feel of the yard. In mid-June, we stopped for… Read More Here’s a quick recap of our summer!
This summer has been busy for us, as we have worked two jobs almost every day. Yesterday ended up being a slower day, so we uncovered the jet ski and headed for the water. It was a perfect night for a ride; there was not much wind, and the water temperature felt great. We started… Read More Let’s go for a ride
