Moved to Fresno

We have moved from Merced to Fresno, well Clovis actually. I accepted a job at Wells Fargo, working in their Wealth Management Group - Private Banking Division. We have only been here a week but we like the location, our house, and the people we have met. My cousin Sara-Lynn also lives in Clovis and my best friend lives in Fresno so that made the move nice.

Yosemite 2008

We went to Yosemite for the weekend with Brooke's family and had a great time. For me the highlight was when we hiked up to Sentinel Dome to enjoy the most amazing view in the world. The view is a 360 panoramic of Yosemite; You are at 8000 feet and you can see Yosemite Falls, Half Dome, Nevada Falls, El Capitan, the valley, and the Sierra Nevadas. Andrew had the most fun riding the bus around the park. It was his first time on a bus and he loved it. Cayden, well he didn't know what was going on. Brooke liked making the jiffy-pop over the fire. We only live an hour from Yosemite so we might go at least one more time this year.

Delays

Sorry about the delays in updating the Blog. We lost the adapter to download pictures to the computer, plus I have been lazy. Look below at the new posts.

The Boys

Andrew and Cayden are really changing. It is amazing all of the things that Andrew is learning. He retains so many phrases and remembers when to use them, it is hilarious. His Aunt Sara and Rachel are teaching him all of these girly phrases so I'm a little worried. He loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Little Einsteins on the Disney chanel. Cayden drinks out of a sippy cup, sits up on his own, says dada, and almost crawls.

The Price is Right

January 7th Brooke and I drove down to Hollywood to be in the audience for "The Price is Right". It was the first taping of the year and it will be aired on Feb 13th and 14th (We went to two tapings). Unfortunately we were not called on down to be a contestant but we had a great time. Believe it or not Drew Carey was hillarious talking to the crowd. The atmosphere was electric and being in the studio and looking at the stage was totally surreal. Did you notice our T-shirts? Brooke had the idea; we took a picture of our sons dressed up like Drew Carey. I wore Cayden and Brooke wore Andrew. The night before we went to a taping of a new dance show on CBS that will come out called the "Dancing Machine" It is a reality dance show that compares to the "Singing Bee" instead it is dancing. We were standing next to the D.J. and when the show is aired it will be fun to watch. We have always dreamed of being on the show so it was really fun to go and do it.

Christmas

Lakers and 49r's Weekend

For my 28th Birthday my brother picked me up from work and we went to Oakland to watch the Lakers take on the Golden State Warriors. The lakers were up the entire game until Baron Davis sealed the game with a 3 and then blew kisses to the crowd. The arena was crazy loud but we were disappointed in that we have been Lakers fans our entire life. Our tickets were on the 13th Row in the season ticket section. It was a great game! The next day on Saturday we went and watched the 49er's play the Bengals in San Fran. The picture is from our seats as the QB ran for the first touchdown of the game. The 49ers won the game and we had great seats again. We drove home after the game and returned to real life. Thank you Bro for the great birthday gift!
