Hello Everyone, Long Time No See!

at 03/19/12 3:47PM *
I was going through my old favorites and I can't believe I forgot all about my Account on Pleonast! I just signed in and lo and behold, it's been over a year since I said anything!!!

Sorry about that because this so unlike me. I blame a lot of things for writting sooner, my Kindle Fire, a wild 2 year old, My oldest one is now a teenager and my middle one has been... tame, I'm so suspicious of him that I cannot let my guard down!! Believe it or not I have missed you guys, drop me a line and let me know how you guys are doing.

I'm still married to my lovely wife of 3 years Heather, I'm still a father of a 16 yr old, 11 yr old and 2 yr old. I'm still God-fearing and a Christian. I'm still a music lover, still love Reckless Kelly, Cross Canadian Ragweed, and all things Texas Music/ Red Dirt. I guess you can say Nothing really has changed except I am thinner on top and surprisingly thinner but not by much just 23 lbs. shooting for 50 lbs. maybe a little more.

Are y'all married, have any kids, or any major changes since 2010? Let me know see ya soon... hopefully! ;-/




PS - I JUST REALIZED MOST OF MY FRIENDS ON HERE HAVEN'T POSTED SINCE 2010 OR 2011 AS WELL, LOL!

    I would definatley put Dean-O at #6. And it's OK that you don't get the Buble' thing. I, for one, can't stand Josh Grobin. But it goes without saying that your wife has better taste than you do, bro. :)

Love This Song!

at 11/10/09 1:29AM
This song by Brad Paisely made me chuckle quite a bit and at the same time choke up.

Just a real touching song that made me think about how all three of my sons will be like when they get older.

It's called "Anything Like Me", Enjoy!

  • mister_c
    great song, bro.

He's Here!

at 10/29/09 7:03PM
I've got a new baby boy! Aiden was born at 11:34am, weighing in at seven pounds six ounces and he's nineteen and 3/4 in.

Thank you for all your prayers! Please continue to keep Heather, Aiden and my whole family in your prayers.


"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning." (James 1:17)

Praise Him indeed!



A Father's Prayer

Lord,
I need your special care.
Like your earthly father, Joseph,
I want to do God's will,
even if I may not always understand.
Make me gentle and selfless
in the care of my family and children;
help me guide them in the toils and troubles,
the happiness and wonders of this life.

Like my Father in heaven,
make me strong in love and forgiveness
for those you entrust to my care.

No one can do these things rightly, Lord,
without your constant help and boundless mercy.
Be with me always,
and may I come to you in heaven,
and all my family with me.

Amen.

    Congrats! I guess I must have been wrong... now start planning how you are going to make certain he doesn't end up with a nickname like, "Do Nothing" or "Worthless".
