Thanksgiving at The Thomas’

11/27/2009

Yesterday we had a great Thanksgiving at our house. At one time we had 16 people running around our place. It was awesome! There would be NO WAY for us to pull that off at our old house. I am so thankful we have a place big enough to entertain. Here are a few snaps from the day:

Bootcamp in May

11/17/2009

So since my last post about wanting some more adventure, I have decided to take a trip to Denver, CO in May for a church planting conference. I am really excited about it. I am going with at least 1 friend, and hopefully we can convince a third to join us.

I am really craving this trip and I look forward to some real man time on the 44 hours we will be driving.

My sister also called me and wants to go skydiving with me. That will be a blast if it ever happens. I am scared spitless of heights, so this would really stretch me. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do.

Wanting A Little Adventure

11/12/2009

Bungee Jumper
I kind of think of myself a as an adventurous guy, but I feel like there hasn’t been much adventure in my life lately. I read blogs a lot about people who live some great adventures. I want more of that in my life.

I don’t necessarily need to go on an African Safari or anything, but here are a few ideas of ways I could spice up my life without too much inconvenience:

  • Go Skydiving or Bungee Jumping
  • Leave one weekend for a spontaneous Road-Trip with the Family
  • Get VIP tickets for a high profile concert
  • Rent a motorcycle and cruise the coast
  • Photograph something risky

These are just a few ideas. I just need to get with the program and start DOING some of these things.

What other adventures could I schedule for myself?

Momma’s Flying In

11/04/2009

My mom is going to be visiting for the next few days. She flies in tomorrow from Calgary, Canada. I am so excited for her to see our little Isla. 4 months have flown by and Isla hasn’t even met her Grandma Lisa yet. So fun! It will be nice to spend a few days with my mom.

On another note, I think I need a vacation sometime soon. It is wearing on me.

Just One Song

11/03/2009

If you could listen to just one song on repeat for the rest of your life, what song would it be?

Mine: Psalm 145 by Shane Barnard Shane Barnard & Shane Everett - Psalms - Psalm 145
