Happy Valentine's Day, wanna watch some TV?


So the beginning of this season of Lost was too much to do something super romantic on this commercialized holiday. Lost is romantic though, right? Truth be told we had a sushi lunch date the next day, so don't think Adam is a jerk. We enjoyed a nice night-in with our pals from Lost. (Spoilers, don't read on Liens) Ridiculous that Sayeed is working for Benjamin Linus in the future, Hurley is hanging out with ghost-Charlie, and Kate is now "mom" to Claire's baby? Is it me, or is pregnancy a recurring occurance for EVERY woman on the show. Danielle Russo (jungle lady) had her baby on the island, Sun gets pregnant, Claire, Kate is rumored pregnant.... any living female that's not pregnant? I guess that's what happens on a deserted island. Still, we are waiting for answers to a four-toe statue, the others' obsession with little kids, who "Jacob" is, random appearances from dead people, what happened to Michael and Walt, Desmond's time warp, Penny's search party, Charlie's death escape, numbers appearing on a shark, black smoke, unknown siblings (Jack and Claire), overlapped stories between all flashbacks, polar bear and horse sightings, some "accident" and "secret" thing that happened before leaving (making them think they have to go back).

Visit from the Colorado Goulds


Man... did we have a fun time with these guys (and gal). We got to introduce them to E.J. Phair, hang out with Uncle Art together, gather as brothers (minus N.J.), and even make a trip up Mt. Diablo on a sunny day. Good times were had by all and it was amazing to see "baby" James transformed into "little boy" James. We miss you guys already!

ZipFizz


So we're the kind of people that cannot enjoy coffee black and feel guilty putting lots of sweet stuff in our caffeinated beverages, knowingly sacrificing health (not to mention lots of money to the greedy Peet's and Starbucks corporations). Instead we found a "healthy" way to get energy during the workweek and drink lots of H-2-O. The product comes in a powder form and mixes with agua into a tasty beverage that's quite thick (like gatorade, not e-mer-gen-C). The other bonus is that there is no sugar, and it doesn't have the strong, annoying artificial sweetner taste. If you look on the vitamin content it's 41,667% Vitamin B12, with other loads of greatness like zinc and vitamin C. We found this drink to boost energy and consciousness quickly without any lame side effects. Drink it up!

Spiffy Job Title


Many of you know what Adam's work situation has been like. God continues to provide. We've spent many months praying and wondering what kind of workplace would be fulfilling and my utilize capabilitites. Well.... it seems that we are experiencing an answer. I was blessed with a great job opportunity at Bank of America last month. Call or write us if you want to hear more about it.

The Sandalman


A few of you have commented on my slippers (and Raimee's matching) that are crazy comfortable looking; they're actually even more comfortable than they appear. These slippers are top notch - everyone in my family owns a pair. The company is in Southern California. If you're curious, check out the website: http://thesandalman.com/sheepskin.htm
