Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. - Steve Jobs

For the Love of Rock Band


Jon brought over his new stage kit he got for his birthday for Rock Band. Pretty much the coolest thing ever. Smoke, stage lights, the works.
Jake's brother Mike came to hang with us for the weekend. We loved having him.


Jake was born to be a rock star.

And you wonder why I love my husband

Live wElle 5k


Live wElle is a foundation that raises funds to create scholarships for students to attend college. The foundation was created by Jake's cousins Scott & Kirsten Hullinger in the memory of their daughter Elle who passed away in 2006. We decided to get together as a family and run the 5k to support their foundation. Their was an awesome turn out. It's especially amazing to be in the first 10 min. of your run & realize that people are already passing you on the way back. Ouch!


This is the part of my life I call "Running my first 5k."




I slapped this awesome sticker on Mark's Hullingers back at the end of the race. I can't help it if it's true. ;-)



Jayda did awesome on her first 5k.
