November 29th....Long Time Gone

Well....tomorrow is November 29th, and most of you are probably thinking "yeah...so?" There is a big significance in my life with this date, it is not the date of my birth but rather an anniversary of a relationship. On May 29th, 2002 I spent the day at Magic Mountain with someone very special. This was the start of my relationship with Hillary Joy Kell. As you can see we were one good lookin couple during our freshmen year of high school. Over the last 5 1/2 years I have become closer with Hillary then anyone else and she has become my best friend. More than my best friend she is someone who I love and can always turn to if I need to be cheered up and when she laughs there is nothing that can keep me from smiling. Happy 5 1/2 year anniversary Hillary! I Love You!

These are all pictures from Magic Mountain over the years.

Way Too Long

Well....I first must apologize to all of my faithful readers out there for there being so much time between posts. I have not given up or lost my interest in blogging, but I am a very routine oriented person and with the holiday among other things my routine had not been the same during my blogging times but I will be sure to make up for it this week so try and keep up. So much has been going on over the last two weeks, my nephew Braden is doing very well. Thanksgiving break was great, going home for a few days and on Thursday I was able to attend the Kell family thanksgiving which was very enjoyable. Along with food and family it included four wheelers, football, and friends. Alliteration, all F's didn't even mean to do that.

Another event that I feel compelled to write about is my viewing of a movie on Friday night. August Rush is Oscar worthy and a very enjoyable movie. Going into the movie with little or no expectations and knowing very little about the plot of the movie I was very pleasantly surprised. Starting off slow and myself already tired from an early start on shopping that morning I was very inattentive and dosing off through the first part of the movie however after 15-20 min my attention had been regained and I was drawn further and further into the movie and the life of August Rush. A great performance from Robin Williams and a breathtaking job by Keri Russell was not enough to take the attention away from brilliant rising star Freddie Highmore's magnificent performance. Also Jonathan Rhys Meyers portrayed in a wonderful way as a struggling musician and a love lost wanderer. Go see the movie and enjoy the well written first major role was and overall GOOD movie.

And remember, "The Music is everywhere, You just have to listen."

Baby Boy Braden

Well...the long awaited time has finally come. My baby nephew has come. His name is Braden and here are a few pictures.
There's proud Dad.

The All New Photo Booth (With Leopard)

This is just some fun in PhotoBooth with the new effects that are available with the purchase of Leopard.I went to Yosemite and was fascinated with the water falls.

This sheep was trying to attack me.

I went to New Zealand with Trever and got in some of his shots.Just relaxing on the beach watching the sunset.It was a little colder in space.

Rare Weekend Post

Well....I don't typically post on weekends but I am in the No and figured why not, and plus I wanted to make sure and share some photos. My wonderful beautiful car has been at the local Taco Bell. One fine evening myself and two of my roommates, Zach and Adam (the Legit Rappers) went to Taco Bell for some burritos when my car would not start for the return trip home. Because of my lack of disposable income it sat their for three weeks. However a friend, Kyle Poulsen, came to my rescue and helped me get my car started. What an awesome guy, and the worst part was that the only problem was some loose connections to my battery and maybe a little corrosion. Thank you Kyle. Here are some pictures of my awesome ride around town.Check out the engine on that baby.

Boredom...or.....Discontentment

Well....first I just want to say don't stick me in a self help group or anything, I have not fallen into a depression that I cannot climb out of. I am just bored, but not bored cause I have nothing to do, I have plenty to do. I have people that I enjoy hanging out with but I am bored, but is it boredom? Another word that might be used here could be discontent. Am I discontent with where I am at? The answer is NO, I love where I am at in my life, I love the people around me in my life. SO what is it that I am bored with or discontent with? I guess it is the slow apathetic way that I live my life. What makes it difficult to live life excitingly and not just in the moment but a true excitement for life? Without Christ how do people make it through the day when they feel like this? How do YOU make it through times like this?"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us." Hebrews 12:1

This verse is so true and yet I struggle to do these things. Sin that entangles me and everything that hinders me. I see the finish line and then I trip. I can never make it across the finish line on my feet. Thats it, I'm done now. Let me know if anyone knows how we can quit messing up and live a right life and not get bored.

Baby Braden

Well....finally he is here. My brother and his wife finally got to meet their baby Sunday morning. To see pictures and how cute he is go here to my brother's blog. I am now an uncle so ya'll can start calling me uncle C. Catch ya'll next time. Oh and remember remember the fifth of November. Go watch V for Vendetta. Also you should check out Sara Groves and her new CD. It's pretty good, although I haven't listened to it much. But you can check out the free discovery download on iTunes. It was released today November 6th.

Well...another weekend has come and passed. It was enjoyable, while watching some basketball from our men's team, as well as homecoming festivities. It was fun while myself and Hillary spent some time wandering around the mall and I was reminded how much I like Gap inc. Thats about it but here are some pictures to have fun with.
