Recently, I went to Glendale and while in the shadow of the University of Phoenix Stadium (that thing looks like a huge UFO!), I judged the Division IV State Marching Band Contest. What an experience! Jennifer, my oh so lovely wife, is currently working on her book that she is writing for her school. She is trying to come up with a pen name, so if you have any ideas, let us know!

Ty is getting excellent grades in school. He really enjoys learning and he likes his teacher. His teacher sure thinks highly of him too. He is a chip of the old block because he has bad handwriting!

Elijah is stil Elijah. We found out today that while eating Chinese food because we watched Kung Fu Panda and we were all craving Chinese food, that Elijah was born in the year of the monkey. It's rather fitting if you know Elijah and his flexible/climbing ways...

Kamea is quite the cranky girl. She has to be because she has two older brothers, and will soon have one younger brother. She can certainly hold her own...

We are well. Our house in SV rented and while they were moving in, the mom's water broke and they had the baby two months premature. The baby is fighting and has a chance. Right now we are trying to find a place to live here. Renting is awful in this area.
