Melrose Crowned Soccer Champs!
Elise's Melrose Youth Soccer team (girls, grades 5,6) had a great season! They qualified for the Commissioner's Cup (June 17/18) and played a round-robin format (2 games on Saturday, 1 on Sunday). With Saturday in the books, Melrose squared off against the undefeated division leaders on Sunday. Melrose had to win to win the Cup. Anything else, and it's second (maybe third) place. The game was epic and our own Elise was the unofficial MVP! (Best Fathers' Day evah!)

Up, up, and away ... and away ... and away ... and uh-oh!
Back in October (2020), we spent a weekend in Leeds. Brought my toys. Had Tim's GoPro with my drone and tried to get some cool aerial footage of the property. Flew high, cuz that's how you get the cool footage. It's also how I never fly. Add wind at altitude and ... you'll see. Best part, though, is when the drone hits the turf and rids itself of the pesky GoPro. Only to meet its final demise amongst the cowpies --- seen by that pesky GoPro, hahaha!
The Multimedia, Thermotronic Gingerbread House
My company had having a 2020 gingerbread house building contest with the following categories for prizes:
- Best execution

- Most Popular (by reactions)
- Most 2020

Here was my entry (I won the Best Execution category):
Together with our fearless family baker (Jess) and crack decorator (Elise), we present the multimedia, thermotronic (the propeller is driven by convection - via the candles - like a Christmas pyramid) Gingerbread House! Turn your sound on. Happy Holidays!

"a d v e n t u r e"
The wedding experience of Denise and Jimmer.
August 7, 2009 in Bend, Oregon. The video was completed on 22 December 2009, and the official first screening took place on Christmas Day. Tears and laughter all around. Here's a neat snippet from the cocktail hour. And no, the rest of the video is actually quite tasteful. |
