And I’m back….

January 11, 2012 in Random with 0 Comments

I can’t believe that it’s been almost 2 years since I’ve posted anything on here.  It’s been an interesting two years to say the least.  So why am I back to blogging?  Because 2012 is going to be a huge year in my life and I want you all to be along for the ride!

God’s really been up to some amazing things in our lives and we know that this is the year that some of His big plans for us comes to fruition.  Check back often…or better yet, subscribe to the blog and stay up to date on what all we’re up to and thinking about this year!  I would tell you what to expect, but you never know what you’ll get on here.

I first saw this on Jon Acuff’s blog, Stuff Christian’s Like, and I could help but post it  I crack up every time these two guys release a video.  If you’ve never heard of them, you can thank me later.

Foods on the Menu at Heaven

I’m convinced that some foods are going to have to be in heaven.  They’re just too incredibly tasty not to be.  And…I’m sure they won’t make us fat in heaven either.

Here are 10 foods, in no particular order, that I expect to eat in heaven.  What would you add to this list? Continue Reading…

Five For Friday

Here are some links for you to check out from this week:

  1. Amazing.  That’s how I would describe the analogy in this video by Francis Chan. (via Catalyst)
  2. In case you missed it, we made this video and song this week for a contest for the Melting Pot.  And….WE WON!!!  Free fondue for a year!
  3. Intriguing post asking the question, “Is SEO the future of evangelism.” I’m thinking that this is an incredible idea.
  4. Mountain Lake Church is throwing a FREE mass wedding.  What do you think about it?  I think I like it.
  5. I pray that the church that we plant can be a dream factory like Mark Batterson talks about in this post.

We’re Like Milk Chocolate

fondue-blog

A couple of days ago, I saw that the Melting Pot was having a contest in honor of National Chocolate Fondue Day.  They wanted users to submit a 30 second video & explain which type of chocolate fondue best represents you: dark, milk, or white.  The winner will receive free fondue for a year ($1,200 worth).

SO…we decided to enter.  Here’s my family’s entry for the contest.  We’ll find out if we win on Thursday.  Everything in the video (footage, music, singing, etc…) is completely original and is me, my wife, and my little boy, so hopefully they’ll think it’s creative!

We’re calling it Like Milk Chocolate.  We’d love to hear your thoughts about it!

The Start of My Political Career…

president

I always joke that I’m going to run for president in 2016.  It would be the first election that I would be old enough to run.

So…I have officially taken my first step.  I have officially been named a Mayor!  Well…Foursquare says so.  I am the mayor of Starbucks in NE Columbia!

I don’t know what my platform will be during this term.  Coffee I guess.  I may even expand my role to other locations soon.  Next thing you know I will be winning the Nobel Prize.

Random Facts About Me…

February 2, 2010 in Random with 1 Comment

I have a variety of people that come to this blog so I thought I’d fill you in on some random facts that you may or may not know about me:

  • I was a batboy for the Kingsport Mets.  I am even on two minor league baseball cards, although I missed the picture day for the card from 1990, so only my name appears on that one.  I may have to upload a pic of the 1989 card sometime for your viewing pleasure.
  • I don’t wear my Puma’s when it rains.  I have a hole in them.
  • My favorite drink at Starbucks is the White Chocolate Mocha.  I’ve actually tried all the drinks on the menu because…
  • I worked for about 7 months for an online high school as a Community Outreach Director.  I had to visit a different Starbucks for 15 days to help people process paperwork.
  • I’ve played in a professional basketball game but never got in a game at college.  Technically, I played in two exhibition games against a professional team in Poland just before college.  I was on the team at Sewanee my first semester of college, but I was injured for most of it.  In the only game that I had 100% health, I was sitting at the scorer’s table waiting to check in when time expired.
  • I’m a perfectionist.
  • I used to drive limos in Louisville, Kentucky.  The highlight may have been driving a man, woman, and the woman’s two kids to a DNA testing facility because they were going to be on the Maury Show.  I never saw the results.
  • I was voted “best all around” in high school.  In other news, I’ve gained about 40 pounds all around since that time.
  • I have a print and graphic design business, JW Printworks, but I really don’t enjoy graphic design.
  • I play guitar and used to be in a band that played almost 100 times in one year, but I only have one guitar now and it’s broken.

What is something random about you?
