Jana's New Blog.

Rachel's mom, Jana, starting crocheting when she moved to Saudi Arabia and has really started to love it. She has a new blog where she will show the things she has been making. They really are well made. Check it out here.

Movie Night.

Ray and I went to see The Curious Case of Benjamin Button last night and we both loved it. I think its a great story and the execution of the story is amazing. Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett both did great jobs playing the different stages of life. Plus, the make up artists did a fantastic job making them look the ages they were playing. Check it out. Cheers.

Merry Christmas!

Ray and I had a great Christmas at home in AZ this year. We both agree that a winter Christmas is waaaaayyyyyyy better than our summer African ones the past 3 years. However, we didn't have a white Christmas like we thought we would, instead we had a rainy, muddy, cold, nasty Christmas. Oh well.

We got up and opened our presents this morning. Ray got a bunch of Bath and Body Works stuff from me, including a sweet new robe. Plus she got some great gift cards, scarf and nice nativity scene candle things from her family.

I got some Jeep stuff, WOOHOO! A Daystar dash panel to hold cell phone and other sundries. I also got some grab handles, a little took kit and flashlight to keep in the Jeep. Besides Jeep stuff I got a couple Xbox games, a sweet hat (kind of like the one in the link, Ray hates these hats, hahaha) and a couple of gift cards from family and friends.

It was a nice Christmas. I hope you all had a great holiday and have a wonderful new year. Cheers.

Tis the Season to be Merry....Thats my name....

Christmas Eve is a great night. Ray and I went to church and on the way home picked up some sushi and some Red Truck and then made a fire and watched some Christmas Vacation. Doesn't get better than that. Cheers.

Diamond Dave.

I think this is so funny that I cracked up on my couch, alone, until I starting coughing. I hope you find enjoyment in it.

South Africans that see this site may have no idea what is going on....just a warning.

Beans, I think you will appreciate this.

He's the worship leader at the church Ray and I go to. I also get to play with him so it would be cool if he won this award. Cheers.
