i was born a rambling man

yes i was . i was also born an i HATE racism with everything i have man. i hate it when people refer to people of different races by racial slurs. i hate it when people are turned down for jobs or housing because of the color of their skin. why do some people think America should be for white people only. that everyone else can 'take their sorry asses back where they came from.' never mind that everyone here at some point. never mind this country was built on the blood of immigrants. never mind, that on the statue of liberty is written the words

Give me your tired, your poor,
Your Huddled masses yearning to breathe free
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore
Send these the homeless, tempess tossed to me
I lift my lamp Beside the golden door


Never mind it's neither American, or even Christian to hold these principals. i'll shut up now. but first i'll print these lyrics from a song by the Warren Brothers.
We ain't just Democrats,we ain't just Republicans
It's all for one and one for all were Americans
And we pray that we see our children's children
And our sons grow to old men

bikes. and tykes. yikes.

me and maddie

yay. so last night we had a bike rodeo at scouts that i helped at. it was interesting. wanna know what you get when you combine 5-12 year olds, wheels, and ego?

you get a bike rodeo. =)

everyone found it necessary to compete against each other. even though we said it wasnt a competition. even though we said 'you'll get hurt'.

do you want to know what you get when you combine a photo op, kids, a great sunset, and a camera?? dead batteries.

so i barely got any pictures. oh well. life will go on.

please pray for those families of the victims killed by the shooter at virginia tech. how the hell can this happen?? isn't God a loving God?? wait...thats what everyone always asks. then they follow it up by asking why he's 'punishing' us. why he's trying to teach a lesson. But does that make sense?? would you throw your son down the stairs to teach him not to play on them?? would you punish someone by killing them?? certainly not. So, it is no different with God. This really is terrible...and my prayers are with the families and the students.


I have decided to start taking photography more seriously.

i can't wait till these lyrics apply to me. though that might be a while =)

Big and Rich
Lost in this moment

See your mama and the candles and the tears and roses
I see your daddy walk his daughter down the isle
And my knees start to tremble as I tell the preacher
Don't she look beautiful tonight?

All the wonderful words in my head I've been thinkin'
Ya know I wanna say em all just right
I lift your veil and angels start singing
Such a heavenly sight

Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed

My feeling's so absolute
There's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waited my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you

I smell the jasmine floatin' in the air like a love song
Watch my words draw sweet tears from your eyes
Bow our heads while the preacher talks to Jesus
Please bless this brand new life, yeah

Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feeling's so absolute
There's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waited my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you
