I love my wife, I love my son, I love the rest of my family, I love chips and cheese w/ hot peppers, but most of all I love God. Other than all of that stuff...

...I love music. It is my heart beat. I can't breath without a melody passing through my lips. My guitar is a clumbsy extension of my chest. I cuddle with it, drool on it, and sometimes I even play it. I love life! There's nothing better than climbing a mountain peak for 5 hours just to check out the view for 20 minutes and snowboard down for another 30. I'm a weak surfer but there is very little on the earth that I enjoy doing more. There is nothing like being perched on your surfboard, waiting for a wave while watching the sun set. And if you've never tried surfing bare skinned (w/ swim trunks of course) in Lake Superior in 33 degree water in 35 degree weather with 60 mph wind gusts during a raging storm seconds from hypothermia and certain death, you haven't lived.

Jesus brings meaning to my life, but my family is my reason to continue my life. My beautiful and wonderfully sexy wife supports me in all of my creative ("Don't Forget To Smile") and not so creative("The Pirate Song") moments. I have the most cutest blue eyed, blonde haired child on the planet and also a little girl on the way. It's not possible to love children more than I love my son bun in the oven. It's scary, because everyday I am around them, God expands what I thought possible of love.

I am truly blessed. Overall, I thank God for his love, grace and mercy. Without it, I would be an empty shell going through the motions. Nothing excites me more than the thought of spending eternity worshiping him.
