Happy 1 Year!

Jayne and I celebrated our 1st year anniversary today. We celebrated by going out to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse last night down in Del Mar. We felt pretty cool dressing up and feeling like we were in the upper class. The steak was awesome...really it was good. But a bit pricey so we were brought back to our normal lives.




We received in the mail a DVD and picture slide show of our wedding from Aunt Peg. It was a great surprise to get to see the day, that went so fast, again. We laughed at all our friends and family and little cousins dancing. It was crazy to think that it was a year ago.

We are truly blessed to have one another ( well at least I am ) and can't wait to see where the next year takes us.

Surf's up!

So being in California, I figured I should be a surfer. I have always wanted to try it and being a blond hair boy I thought I would fit right in. I have been attempting to surf this year. I go out many Sunday mornings before church with a guy from our church. It is one of the most difficult but rewarding things I have ever done. I thought I was a decent athlete, but I look foolish and it has put me in my place many times. But being on the water (once I get past the break) when the sun is coming up is one of the coolest places to be. Being surrounded by dolphins, seals and pelicans surfing along side of you is a true sign of God's Glory. Jayne has not attempted it yet, she is not too sure about not knowing what's going on underneath her in that ocean, But I will get her out there sometime.

that's me........in a few years

Summer Action

Jayne and I have been enjoying our sumer nights in California. Just like in Denver it cools off really nice so night time activities are very possible. Jayne joined a womens indoor/outdoor soccer league with ladies from our church and school when we moved out here. They are back to back champs (no big deal). Jayne played in high school and loves getting back into the games. Summer games are better than winter, yes we have a winter here, it gets cold. Here are some pics of Jayne in action.

Jayne in action. Check out the one where she is taking a girl out! Wes would be proud



I coached girls varsity basketball this year and had a blast. We did really well and went to the final four in California. This summer we have a sumer league team and are playing up to say the least. We are division 5 (smallest) playing a D 1 league. Yikes! we are learning a lot about real basketball but it is still fun to be on the court even though we get blown out by 50 sometimes....yea 50

We are Posers ...but it's cool

So.....here we go.
I was talking to my mom and you know her, we should start a Blog too. I love looking at Cara's and Abby's keeping up with all they do, so I thought I would become a poser (as mark would call me) I know we don't have any cute kids, but I thought we could keep you up to date with all our happenings here in California. So I will attempt to blog or whatever you call it.
Quick up to date. Jayne and I moved to Escondido about a year ago. I teach and coach at Calvin Christian schools (k-12 PE) I know its a hard job playing all day in the San Diego sun. Jayne is working as a HR and Paralegal person? at Superior Ready Mix (a concrete company).
We really enjoy going to the beach and attempting to surf. Jayne loves the sun and enjoys taking in its rays.

K thats all I got now...but hope we can do cool things so you can see what and how we live here in California!
