Ryder has been a huge blessing toward Chad, Janie and I. It’s amazing to have a newborn in the house again. Janie is loving every moment of being a big sister. She loves to cover and uncover him with little blankets and loves to give him big kisses!
We took some family photos today along with pregnancy photos of Anna with Jared. You can view them in the Recent Photo section.

Ryder Is Home!

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

We got home from the hospital around 3:30pm today. The stay and birth was very pleasant and fast. The epideral made things much nicer for both of us, so we definitely will go that route again.

Photos and videos are being uploaded now. Anna and Jared just showed up with some delicious enchilada so we’re about to eat right now.

The live updates via twitter were a big success, so I’ll go ahead and repost the entire thread here for the record from beginning to the end!

Well, today is the 20th, Ryders due date. Carrie has been having some good contractions since early this morning, so we’re anticipating. I still think she needs to drink caster oil.

Date Night

Friday, May 30th, 2008

Carrie took me on a date last night, and bought me a stein of Guinness. It was so romantic.

Then she took me to see indiana jones, which was kinda weaksauce. You can read how I really feel at PTA. The Guinness was my highlight of the evening.

Bath Fun with Janie

Flickr now allows us to host video with them. The sad part is that my flickr plugin, won’t show the videos here, so you’ll have to click the link “See photo on flickr” in order to watch the vids.

That is, unless we manually embed them into a post.

New Church Website

Friday, April 25th, 2008

I just launched the new church website! Plenty of good reading if you’re interested. Let me know if any of you find broken links or bugs.

Sunday Message

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

John 10
26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand. 30 I and My Father are one.”

This has been the message at church the past couple Sundays, and Carrie and I both have really been enjoying our Pastors preaching. We all went over to the pastors house after church on Sunday, and ate and fellowshipped. A great bunch of people. Surprisingly, for this area, they are mostly a younger crowd, where it has been the opposite at most church’s we’ve been to. And they’re gun folks too, so Ryan Vander Feer and I fit right in. The pastors oldest son just turned 21, so he got him a CCW and a Kimber 1911. Thats a beautiful combination. The Honeycutt Family also visited our church, and will hopefully stick around.

I’m currently working on the church’s new website, so you’ll be able to read alot of our pastors writings as well as comment on them. I’ll post the link once the site is complete.
