Olympic Fun

I completely saw this picture on another blog that I read.
This was clearly taken after the USA defeated Canada in hockey.

This guy has a caption contest to see who comes up with the best title:


The one i liked the best read:
"I am so excited! My appendix just burst and they say a doctor will be able to see me in 3 weeks!"

Go USA.

Life

Sorry for the lack of updates.
THings have been very good it just seems like time to sit down and blog has not been on the top of my priority list recently.
This has been one of those seasons where time seems to slip away.
I don't want to say "busy" I am really starting to believe that "busy" is copout. We are all given the same amount of time, it's just being a good steward of that time that has been the problem!

Birthday parties, college retreat, small groups, meetings, book clubs, doctor appointments, Olympics...some call it life.

Thanks for continuing to check.

5 things that have surprised me recently:
1. Annie's beautiful eyes, i know she gets them from her mom, but come on.
2. Davis' smarts. Not sure where to attribute this, but he is a smart little cracker.
3. Our patience. Davis is definitely pressing the limits as he gets older, but I am so thankful to watch Katie and occasionally myself, parent him and watching him "Get it."
4. Finding out people don't watch the Olympics!! What? Why would you not watch the Olympics? I normally don't watch MSNBC or CNBC (i'm more of FOX guy), but i've sought out the olympics at any chance i am given.
5. Shaun White.

Money

I thought this video was pretty funny and awkward.
This guy, Tripp Crosby, does a lot of work at North Point, the church Katie and I attended while in Atlanta.
I promise Davis and Annie stuff is coming soon.

you can see more of his stuff at trippcrosby.com

I was stretching the other day and Katie caught a pic of it, i asked her not to take it, but she did anyway.
Trying to work on my inner thigh strength.

Catch up

Last week was a bit crazy for me.
Sorry for the lack of posts.
Here are some birthday pics.
Still no video.
Enjoy.

Birthday Update

Well we ended up having an interesting birthday weekend.
Katie had planned a great surprise party for me with a bunch of friends up in a cabin in the mountains. Unfortunately because of the snow we had to call off the party! Katie was very upset but it was definitely the right decision. She had put so much work into this and I hated to hear that it wasn't going to happen, but it was definitely right.
I am so thankful for Katie and all of the hard work and planning she put into the party.
Davis' party did end up happening on Saturday. Even though it was snowy and icy I think people saw it as a good excuse to get out of the house. We are surrounded by such great friends and families.
I am working on a video and some pics from the birthday bash. (hopefully the next couple of days)
For now, here are a few pics of our traditional Neely Birthday Dinner at Regas.
This was Davis' second trip and he had the shrimp. Supposedly you can start having shellfish once you are two, but I am pretty sure Davis had already tasted shrimp, but he definitely enjoyed the dinner. Throughout the whole meal he kept asking for the cake. It was a great evening of celebrating.
