Wade in the Water…
On a personal note, I had the high honor of baptizing my oldest son last night. He's an amazing kid. He was very solemn and reverent through (most of) it…and I cried like a little girl.

Windex, anyone?
I hate New Years Resolutions. Hate 'em. In my humble but accurate opinion, they've been pretty worthless. Why?
