lucky you

This past weekend we went to the Cottleville St. Patrick’s Day parade. It was raining a little but nothing to keep us away from the fun. There were thousands of people there and it was so cool seeing everyone having a good time just enjoying the raining weather watching the parade.

I got some GoPro footage (thanks Michelle!) but I just have not had the time to cut anything together. This year we had a much better position for the kids to catch beads and other little trinkets, but if your curious here is a video from last year that I put together.

After the parade we marched back to Mamaw and Pawpaw’s house and ate a delicious lunch in celebration of my wife’s 30th birthday. My father-in-law is a great cook and his menu never disappoints. A few fajitas and a slice of birthday cake later it was about time to head home. Once home we set ourselves up to relax for a bit while the kids napped. I may have slipped in a few minutes of rest but nothing spectacular.

I'm a 40-year-old father blessed with two wonderful children: a 13-year-old daughter and a 10-year-old son. My life revolves around my beautiful wife, who is the cornerstone of our family. Without her unwavering support, none of what I do would be possible. By day, I serve as a network administrator for a local school district, ensuring smooth operations in the realm of technology. During the evenings, you'll often find me engrossed in various creative pursuits, from illustrating books to crafting websites or composing music. But above all, my priority is spending quality time with my kids. Parenthood has been a profound journey of growth and discovery for me, and now, armed with a keyboard instead of a pen, I'm eager to share my experiences and insights with others.
