as we know it… anyway.
Just voted… now we just wait and see how the long evening plays out.
After Trisha failed to catch the first touchdown Ethan ran up the middle, Nate was nice enough to get some footage at the game. I finally got around to putting it on YouTube… check it out.

In light if the current financial chaos around the world, and listening to our two wonderful options for president blabber back and forth, it’s hard not to worry. I haven’t lost millions of dollars in my 401k, or thousands for that matter, but the uncertainty of the future definitely has many people at least a little bit worried.
Will I be able to provide for my family in the coming year? Will my business continue to thrive in the struggling economy? Is it time to shut off the HD package on the DirecTV account, and the unlimited text messaging on the iPhone? I don’t know the answers to these questions.
Yeah… there’s question, and there’s worry. But here’s the reality of it all… we aren’t really in control of what happens.
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life“ ?
Matthew 6:25-27
ZING! launch your lunch Everyone knows you shouldn’t play with your food. But hey – sometimes you have to defend your dinner! Now there’s a new weapon in your homeland security arsenal – load up a particularly mushy pea or corn niblet, aim, pull back the spring-loaded handle, and watch your food take flight. ZING! It’s WAY more fun than a war of words.
Condolences to the Steven Curtis Chapman family… if this story doesn’t make you slow down and take some time to enjoy the fleeting moments in life that we so often take for granted, I don’t know what will.
Musician Steven Curtis Chapman’s daughter killed in accident
“I was trying to give my little girls a bath and rushing and hurrying through it,” Chapman told The Press in an interview last fall. “And I got convicted over how much I rush through moments trying to get to the next one, and God telling me to stop and take the moments as he gives then, and see what he’s trying to teach me.”
*sigh*
First Ethan falls in love with soccer… and now Gabe brings home this from Kindergarten…

“Toy Story” films headed back to theaters in 3-D
The Walt Disney Studios plans to debut digital 3-D versions of Disney-Pixar’s “Toy Story” and “Toy Story 2.”
“Toy Story” is slated to open October 2, 2009, followed by “Toy Story 2″ on February 12, 2010. Both films would be released in advance of Disney-Pixar’s “Toy Story 3,” which is being produced as a 3-D motion picture and is slated to open June 18, 2010. Veteran Pixar filmmaker Lee Unkrich (co-director of “Toy Story 2″) is directing the third installment.
As exciting as it was to read that in converting “Toy Story” and “Toy Story 2″, the technical team is retrieving all of the original digital elements and rebuilding them in 3-D, I have to say, I’m kinda with Kottke on this one… 3-D has never done anything special for me. Of course, that won’t stop me from taking the entire family to see the third installment when it opens!
