One of the reasons for the recent lack of posts is the tragic hospitalization of our beloved iMac computer. We’ve had the iMac for a couple years, and it just so happened that when I was setting it up in our new home, I started noticing problems. I rebooted, and got nothing. It wouldn’t boot …

Tweed jackets and leather elbow patches
My co-workers have started calling me “The Professor” in an effort to tease me about my new part-time job. One co-worker even laughed when he found out why I was carrying a stack of books into work. However, I don’t mind the ribbing, because I’m having a great time. I’m now an Adjunct IT Instructor …
Laptop frustrations
I imagine that everyone gets frustrated with their computers every once in a while and has a minor meltdown. Not everyone is fortunate enough to get it captured on film. I’m pretty sure this laptop won’t ever work again. This wasn’t really my laptop, it was a contest at an IT lunch we had at …
The time has come
Nearly eight years of working for what began as MingleMatch and then became Spark Networks, I am finally resigning. After many successful matchmaking experiences for friends and family it is time for me to move on. It is surprisingly more difficult than I thought. I am not sure if it is because I question my …
Oops! Huh? What? For real? Seriously? No way!
Yes, these are all potential names for our upcoming little one. It is also pretty much the same response we expect from everyone we tell. Seth responded differently with something like, “#&*@,” but I can’t post that on our blog. So, we are excited to announce that we are once again pregnant — this will be …

Happy Mother’s Day to me!
This Mother’s day has brought me a lot of wonderful surprises. Most holidays in our family are pretty low-key but not this time! My Mother’s day festivities started off with a Mother’s Day tea with Katelyn’s preschool class. They performed some fun songs and even recited a sweet little poem. They also served us vegetables …
Happy 3rd Birthday to our little princess.
Seth and I were startled from our sleep this morning as Claire danced into our room singing about how today was her birthday. She is such a princess. She twirled about the house all day knowing very well the whole day was all about her. Claire has a way about her that often captures the …

My little turn on the catwalk
Like Derek Zoolander, I too have wondered if there is more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good-looking. I’ve decided that there isn’t. So, I’m officially announcing my candidacy for 2009 Male Model of the Year.
Dad on SportsBeat
My dad was featured on SportsBeat on KSL this last weekend. He is a pretty amazing guy with a really cool story, and I thought Kathy Aiken did a pretty good job of telling his story in just over three minutes. The best part about it was showing it to the kids. They were all …
A new tradition
I think we have found a new holiday tradition. We always try to make our way up to Salt Lake to visit Temple Square and see the beautiful lights, but this year we went up early enough to go to the Church History Museum. Seth’s Mom is serving a mini-mission as a docent at the …
