Go McCain

So i get home after two days on the road and while eating dinner Dalton tells me who the new President is, Bummer huh? I then find out his Kindergarten class had a mock election as well. So who did you vote for Dalton? uh, the white haired guy, uh John McCain. So why did you vote for him? Because he listens to God! good reason I thought. So why didn't you vote for Barack? Because he doesn't listen to God. I say really,(I don't beleive he believes in my God either based on what I've heard from him) So who told you that, He's says nobody, really. Maybe God spoke to Him. So I ask him again why McCain and he tells me, Because he's the bestest , oh and he listens to God. Well too bad his vote didn't count. His school K-12 vote 75% in favor of McCain. I tell him good Choice, Maybe I'm not such a bad parent after all.

Oh and before dinner he tells me no I don't want Cheeseburger macaroni, What youdon't want my Homemade Cheeseburger macaroni? Fine don't eat. Then I figure out that I made it spicy by using the rotell Velveeta,oops. Then he proceeds to eat three plates. I swear this is why i'm losing my mind. At least he knows who to vote for.

Saturday afternoon fum

Having a little fun out on the backroads. I promise I won't do wheelies on the highway, I promise I won't do wheelies on the highway, I promise I won't do wheelies on the highway, I promise I won't do wheelies on the highway!! Sorry Kitten

Trying my Wife's patience with me.

So after Dalton's wreck yesterday we decided to go out to Marshall Creek and ride four wheelers.. Dalton was a little apprehensive, but after a trip around the track with me and hen taking Mom for a ride, He was ready to go by himself again. He did great getting faster every time around. Carson of course wanted us to take him for a ride as well. What that means is he wanted us to sit with him and drive himself. I figured since he thought He could do it with us we might as well let him try by himself. So I turned down the governor so he wouldn't get to crazy on it. Then off we go, as I look back at Amber she gave me a look that, frankly I'm surprised didn't kill me. Anyway, He did great. it's a little big for him so I guess we will have to start searching for a ride for him. Oh and earlier in the Ride I am sure that while we where watching D ride that Amber said something about me getting one too!! Alright ya'll have a great weekend. J
Carson Driving st8 to the mud!!

Mission Statement

1 Corinthians 9:19-23

19 Though I am free and belong to no man, I make myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. 20 To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. 21 To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God's law but am under Christ's law), so as to win those not having the law. 22 To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some. 23 I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.

Nuff Said,

Yearly post

OK, so my wife tells me that I should blog more because I apparently have good stories to tell. OK so here goes and I will try to write more. So Dalton has been asking me for weeks to go ride his four wheeler. So i finally charge the battery take Carson for a ride and get Dalton all suited up with helmet. He adjusts everything to work for him and familiarizes himself with all the controls. he then takes off down the side walk and was going to go across the street to the culdesac. All of a sudden he turns HARD LEFT, and full on the gas, oh God, what is about to happen, Dalton Lean, Oh Crap, the bike just flipped. running, never ran so fast. Oh good it flipped away from him, wait no it's coming back over. man why cant I run faster. Please God don't let anything be wrong. I finally get there. throw the bike off, DALTON ARE YOU OK??? Talk to me stand up no broken bones no Blood. Man, we cant be this Lucky!!, I'm OK, I'm OK . Good. I put him back on the Bike we head back to the house......OH MAN my Knee,, It BLEEDING. So we get back to the house and he has a little scratch on his right leg. I don't want to do this I don;t want to do this. I don't want to ride it any more. OK, you don't have to. so we have to have a band-aid. OK lets go inside and get one. so as I am putting the Band-aid on MY ARM, MY ARM, oh man . So he has a huge friction burn up his arm. As I am looking for the Antiseptic spray, He says, OK, so I will ride again but can we please get me one of those chest protector thingy's we looked at. Yes Dalton, i will go first thing tomorrow. oops. I knew I should have bought one last time I was at the bike shop.

Easter weekend

Hey everyone. Been a while since I been on here. I hope you all had a gret Easter. D-mann turned 5 last week had his party on saturday. He has way too many friends. I can't believe the house is still standing. We went overboard and got him a four wheeler. He was so excited. I am so proud of him and can't wait to see what God has in store for him. My dad, bro and grandma came inb for the weekend. We ate way too much much and never slowed down all weekend. I am so exausted after all that went on. We also went the motorcycle races sunday aternoon and I got to take D for a parade lap arond the track. He is so spoiled. But totally worth it. I am also thankfull that we live in a place where we can do all that we get to do. I also want to give thanks to God for sacrificing his Son so I could have a relationship with him. Thank you for your grace O'Lord.

LOVE IS THE GREATEST

First, however, let me tell you about something else that is better than any of them.

If I could speak in any language in heaven or on earth, but didn't love others, I would only be making meaningless noise like a loud gong or a clanging cymbal. If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I knew all the mysteries of the future and knew evertything about everything, but didn't love others, what good would I be? And if I had the gift of faith so that I could speak to a mountain and move it, without love I would be no good to anyone. If I gave everything I have and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it, but if I didn't love, other's I would be of no value whatsoever.
Love is kind, Love is patient. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
1 Corinthians 13

I pray that you can apply these to your life and relationships. I want to wish all my friends a Happy Valentines Day. Most of all thank you to my family. I love you guys. Thank you for forgiving me when I wrong you or fail you. Have a Happy Valentines Day.

Pay Attention

Hello everyone. Thought I would share what i am struggling with right now. Several years ago when I started getting back in Church I thought I would like to be involved in Student ministries. God directed me to concentrate on my family first and Stregthen my Faith in him. As of lately, I am feeling that call again. God has placed me in several situations so I could test the waters of Student ministry. Yet, I have not been listening or paying attention. I thought I was good just skating along doing the minimum. Shows how much I know.
It is amazing in all the ways God has been speaking to me. Every where I turn there is some sign. Just last night while reading the Bible with Dalton we were reading of Moses and the Burning Bush. Moses saw this and when he approached this bush he couldn't beleive it wouldn't burn up. What a miracle he saw. He also encountered God there. God told him to remove his shoes, he was on Holy ground. After reflecting on this I realized that I need to pay attention to what God is trying to tell me. Just like Moses, I am ashamed that I ignored him, not knowing where I am at and that this is his ministry, not mine. I was where he wanted me, when he wanted me there and I have ignored him this whole time. I know have not been spending the time needed to listen to him. Lord, I pray that you reveal yourself to me in new ways, help to to be aware when you are speaking to me and Lord, give me the courage and strength to carry out your will.

I do not know where God wants me, whether it be Student Ministry or digging ditches, but I do know know that I must always be ready for him to call on me so I must pay attention. Lord, I give you my all, use me in what ever ways can glorify your name. Amen

Hey everyone out there. Thought this blog would be a good spot to talk about anything on my mind and let family keep up with what is going on.



First off I would like to thank God for the wonderful life he has blessed me with, I am sure I will be tested after that statment. He has blessed me with the most wonderful, loving, caring and prayful wife, Amber. I never fully became me until God brought us together. It is hard to admit but she is soo good at all things I fail at, probably why we work so well together. With only one word to describe her, i choose immaculate: free from moral blemish or impurity; pure; undefiled. I love her with every beat of my heart.


After marrying we have since been blessed with the awesome responsiblity of parenting our two son's, Dalton(4) and Carson(2). They are complete opposites. Dalton craves attention and encouragement, While Carson, well he changes minute by minute. I just hope that I will never fail them. I also hope and pray that they follow God' s heart and will for their lives.

My passions in life are Family, Motocycles, Motorcycles, anything that involves risk/failure, and apparently I am addicted to anything that involves money. If only i had all the time and money in the world. I do have to give thanks to God for always providing for all my needs. I have always had more than I deserve. I truly fall under that whole Grace thing. I fail daily in his eyes, I can only try and learn from my mistakes.

Thank you to all who put up with me and hope you return to hear about the adventures in my Crazy Life.
