Bowling for Carter

Happy Birthday to the JNC. The Crew went down to Fatcats for some friendly and competitive bowling to celebrate Carter's b-day. Happy 18th Jesse! You're finally legal...

Carter beat me by one point! (He always manages to beat me by one or two in any sport we attempt;)

Shay (The Best Dog Ever)

So for those of you that didn't know, Kim had a miscarriage awhile back. It was a hard thing to go through and I don't wish it upon anyone, especially the person I care about most in my life and my best friend. Anyways, instead of starting our family, we decided to get a dog as a temporary supplement. Her name is Shay and is the best puppy ever. She's a half lab/half pointer mix and is super smart. We got her @ 5 weeks old (which is super young), but she's already mostly potty trained, can sit, lay, and shake. Not bad, considering Kim and I are rookies at this dog raising thing and have only had her just over a month. Shay is definitely a lot of work and more than expected, but she is worth it and we love her. In fact I think she has moved up the totem pole and surpassed me on Kim's favorites list ;)...

Camping @ Fairview (The Neel Secret spot)

Brent Neel is the man, what else can I say. Not only did he put together my favorite camping trip of 2007, but I caught my first trout of the year that was big enough to take home and eat. I cooked that bad boy up for dinner and it wasn't too bad if I do say so myself. The crew included, the Spencers, The Kelly Neel family, B-Neel, JNC, Bertie, Kim, and myself. We rode four-wheelers, shot bb-guns (a little side note, Susan is a dead eye, she couldn't miss, and I put my money on her against anyone, any day), fished, played games around the fire. It was epic. Here's some pics...


Brent and I woke up and went fishing @ 6 am. Carter went off and went hunting with his bros that were up there. When we got back from fishing, Brent cooked everyone breakfast and it hit the spot...Here's my trout that I caught. From the lake to the grill...

My wife is Famous in Vegas!!!

My beautiful and talented wife Kim is now officially famous. Throughout her entire life she has never met anyone famous, other than myself of course ;). That all changed when she took a girls trip to Vegas and met...you guessed it, Wayne Brady. She was at a restaurant in the Venetian and was sitting next to him at dinner. She didn't want to interrupt his date that he was on and couldn't gather the courage to ask for a picture with him, but just as they went to leave the restaurant, she sucked up her pride and couldn't resist the temptation. Here's the proof...
