Happy Birthday Chloe

Happy Birthday Chloe

Today is my little Chloe’s birthday. I say little, but she’s not so little any more. She’s 8 years old today and is starting to come into her own more and more each day.

This is a classic video of my two girls from Christmas 2005. Uncle Jason asks Emily if she wants coal for Christmas but Chloe isn’t happy with Emily’s answer. Turns out Emily has a mind of her own and isn’t afraid to speak it.

Things You Need To Know About Her

Things You Need To Know About Her

“What Are You Thinking?”

“What Are You Thinking?”

It’s the question that every husband dreads, “Honey, what are you thinking?” For some reason God created wives with this insatiable curiosity about what goes on between the ears of their husband. Guys, if you’re married you’ve undoubtedly been asked this question before at least 50,000 times. And when our wives ask, they don’t let us off easy…

Why Lisa Doesn’t Shoot Our Family Videos

You need to watch this video that Lisa shot on our camera a couple of months ago. You may notice something a little off. We’ve pretty much made the decision to not let Lisa shoot any more family videos.
