My New Job

Well, it's official folks. I am now an employee of Zipps Sports Grill. Even though I haven't worked my first shift yet I went in yesterday and filled out my paperwork and got the ball rolling. My first shift is on Monday and I am very excited about this new venture. I think it is going to be nice to get back into the bar/restaraunt scene. My last day at the radio station was yesterday also. I don't think a lot of you will be able to make it up to see me as I am at the Frank Lloyd Wright location 3 days a week and the Kierland location 2 days a week. I am excited and I am looking forward to it. If you haven't ever been to Zipps check them out HERE.

Encanto Park

On Monday (presidents day) we decided to take a trip to Enchanted Island at Encanto Park in the downtown area. Encanto park is really cool and a great place to take the kids. It has a mini amusement park in side including a train, rides, games, food and more.

Mason seemed to have a blast. Here he is riding one of the motorcycle rides at the park. He loves these things and screams so loud, but thats ok. As long as he is having fun that's all that matters. It was nice we took some lunch and had a picnic. I must say if you asked me a year ago if I thought I would be doing this I would have asked you if you were crazy. But I am so happy that I am doing it and can't wait until we get to take the new baby with us.

Of course, you can't go to a park with rides and not have Amanda ride any. I tell ya. The kid in her seems to come out and just have a blast. I hope the poor baby is ok. Maybe this will be the last time she rides anything until after she has the baby. Plus if it spins...I don't go on it.

Adam & Jack

Well, I must say it is a very difficult process to get a good picture of Adam. He always seems to pull funny faces for pictures but he probably wasn't allowed to in these pro pictures they had taken right around Jacks 2nd birthday. I really like this picture and I think it shows off one of the best Dads of all time.

Ladies

Oh my, Washington was fun but you know how the girls always seem to have more fun. I don't know how but for us guys it's just usually playing pool and having a beer or two. Well these girls aint no strangers to the pool table and Heather (next to Amanda) used to be my pool partner until I woke up and realised that I needed to change some stuff in my life but I certainly do miss playing pool with H-Town.

Romney Out, McCain In?

Wow, I thought this was interesting. Mitt Romney has dropped out of the race for the republican nomination which leaves Sen. John McCain pretty much in the drivers seat for the nomination. Although I am not quite sure if he gets there who he will be up against. It is still close between Clinton and Obama so I don't know but we will find out as the big day gets closer i'm sure. Any thoughts?

A Good Pic Finally

Ha ha finally a picture of Mason that is good. I know he likes to have his picture taken but this morning I was trying to get a shot of him and he was playing with his phone and because of camera phones he thought he was tking pictures on his phone so I got a bunch of him with a cell phone in front of his face but then I figured it out. And here is the result.

Washington Family

Ok, here is the gang from up north in Washington, as you can see I need you to feel sorry for me and mason as we are the only 2 guys here in this picture. As most of Amandas family are females I am curious to see what the new baby is going to be. I love all of these guys and I hope that we get to see them soon.

Shaq Moves to Phoenix

In an amazing trade the Phoenix Suns aquire Shaq from the Miami Heat today. Passing a medical moments ago Shaq is now a Phoenix Sun. In this amazing move the Suns traded four time all star Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks to the Heat in exchange for Shaq. I don't know if this was the best move for Phoenix but as a huge Suns fan I will be looking forward to seeing O'Neal in a Suns jersey. Let me know what you think. Leave your comments below.

Sleeping and Frost

Mason is pictured here fast asleep. He isn't the best person for getting to fall asleep, but for some reason that onlu applies when his momis home. Whenever it is just me and him he falls right asleep, weird I know but I thought I would share.


Ok, so I know it isn't as white as some other parts of the country but I thought it was kind of nice seeing a little frost on the roofs of downtown phoenix. And for all you people that say it doesn't get cold in Arizona. I know it doesn't get as cold as some places but freeing point is freezing point it's not like we have a higher point just cause we're in the desert.

Mason

So, I was looking through some old pics of this one and came across the monster giving a big grin to the camera. I mean he is not camera shy what so ever which is actually nice. He looks a little more like a baby in this picture. I am going to be taking some more current pictures of him so stick around.

More Celebs From Super Thursday

There were plenty of stars on the red carpet on Super Thursday although I was excited, there were some celebrities that I couldn't remeber the names of. For example this guy. I know he has been in movies but I can't remember his name. Any help?

And I guess it wouldn't be a party with out this guy there. I didn't recognize him at first but then as I got closer. There he was idol Reggie Sanders. Up close and personal. It was cool to see all these celebrites close up and even get to say hi to some of them.

Well......need I say more? It was pretty wierd to actually be on the other end of the camera and actually be taking these pictures and shouting at them to stop and take a picture and have them actually comply with what you were asking them to do. I haven't been in a situation like that before so it was pretty cool.

Super Thursday

So working at the radio station can be quite sometimes but on January 31st we had a huge event at Axis/Radius in Scotssdale to kick off the Super Weekend that was hitting the valley by storm. Diddy was performing and the stars showed up before the show to check it out. As you can see David Spade made and apperance as well as Indy Car driver Danika Patrick and Arizona resident Wolf from the new series of American Gladiators. I had a lot of fun but learned something new about myself also. I'll post some more pics from this event soon. I have a lot more, so stick around. Thanks to Eugene Espero for these great pictures.
