Best Dunk Ever!



Hey Everyone. Just wanted to post a very special moment for Lila and I. June 19th we headed down to church to go our Wednesday night Pure group. Live-Pure.org  Lila and I had been wanting to get baptized and we were just waiting for the opportunity. It came and we were very happy to have someone really special to us be a part of it. Pastor Shane is the one who married us and it meant a lot to us that we would also be the one to baptize us. He has been such an spiritual leader for us we are very thankful he is a part of our lives. So, you may or may not know what it means to be baptized. It is an outward display of an inward commitment. We have commited ourselves to a lifestyle that is not the "norm". Some say "Freak" some say "beater" but it couldn't be further from the truth. Yes, its a different lifestyle, but if there is a GPS to heaven wouldn't you follow the directions? Well guess what there is. Its just not a box on your dashboard. Its a book that talks to your soul. The problem is sometimes we don't like what the directions are telling us to do. We think we know better. We think we know what's good for us. The truth is, when you change the way you think, is when things start to change in your life. I say that cause changing the way I think has made drastic changes in my life. Its changed my faith, changed my body and changed my releationships. Something like this has its ups and downs as anything. We are not perfect, its impossible, but we have made the commitment to grow and become stronger. Trying our best to be better than yesterday.

We are very thankful to all who supported us on this special day. We thank the team. We thank our parents and friends and family for the support. We thank the people from Water of Life Community Church. And all the people from Pure. My favorite verse Romans 12:2 "... but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

Friday funnys - Sahara Hare

So Lila and I were just chillin in bed the other day and we were watching the old Looney Tunes. Remember those? Well, it really sucks that they stopped showing them before the movies. I mean they show everything else before the movies why not show some real writing and talent. Those things were hand drawn. With one guy Mel Blanc doing 90% of the voices for the characters and an actual orchestra playing the music in the background. True artist compared to the synthetics of today's digital world. Call me dumb but they just can't replicate this with computers and soundboards. Here's a look at a classic. Favorite part is when Yosemite Sam explains what "whoa" means to his camel! Check it out! First time posting video from youtube to the blog so if there's any issues let me know.

Viva los...Cubanos?

So back in 2008 the dodgers had Mannywood. I mean the dude just came in and started hitting bombs and took over the city! Sound familiar? The cuban defect Yasiel Puig hit a grand slam last night to help the blue crew steal one from the braves. 3 homers in 4 games including 2 in 1 game and 7 hits of 18 at bats.You know, I don't want to sound negative and I appreciate the current wins but it feels a tad like smoke and mirrors oof 2008. The guy is human and as with us all, he will come down to earth eventually and then what? What do we do with the outfield once Kemp comes back? Crawford, Kemp,Either,Puig, what what your line up look like? Nice to thave Zack back, hope that pans out. Since the dodgers are not in a spot to make the playoffs just yet, I'm just gonna go watch the kid play and take the wins when they come with the hope that this is contagious and the bats wake up for the boys in blue. What do you guys think?

Just a beginning of Summer update

Hey Everyone, Just wanted to shoot out a small little update from our last entry. Not much has changed.We are still crazy focused still on our training and getting better. If fact the longer we are running the harder it is to keep up with it. It takes a mental want to wake up in the morning and do what we have to reach our goal. Its actually been quite amazing we started serious training in November of 2012 and as of Memorial day a couple weeks ago, we just finished our 3rd 1/2 marathon. We started not being able to run a mile with out stopping and we've grown mentally and physically stronger since then. This last one was for the USMC Dark Horse batallion out of Camp Pendleton.
It was very inspiring to see the families of fallen and current marines during this event. How can you not get pumped up when a TANK leads everyone down the street for a tough run. Memorial day was not part of the beach cities challenge that I wrote about earlier. We did this one for our troops pas and present (and a pretty cool medal.) After completing the Orange county half marathon with personal records for both of us, we have one more to go in october. I know some of you have told me you want to train for this so we'll be starting to train next week. For those of you interested in starting to train for something like this, let me know.
We meet in Glendora on Saturday mornings for our long training runs. It is a challenging but perfect training course.You don't need to do the full 1/2 marathon, 5ks and 10ks are available to run and are a great accomplishment for your specific level of running. Lila wants to do a full marathon next year but thats a whole other level of training. I don't know if were ready for that just yet.

Other things going on is we are getting more involved with our church. We are in the works of starting a couples small group through church, were couples can get together and fellowship about God and what kind of problems or speed bumps that arise during marriage. It will also be a good opportunity to get together with other couples and just hang out and be silly. Its always good to know you are not the only one going through issues. And you not the only crazy couple out there.

Other than that we are just being us. Spending time together, laughing as much as we can and working towards our own goals for 2013.

P.S. Special Congrats to all the graduates in the family. I know we couldn't make all the parties but we are super proud of all of you. You guys are entering a new level of your life and it is a huge accomplishement. Keep your head on straight and keep out of trouble. Just cause you're out of school doesn't mean you're ready for life just yet. :oP Praying for you all. See ya next time.
