Not only will the receiver be surprised by the creative spark you have but you’ll also save some money and a few trees.

Not going to lie, but I hope He waits till several months after April 28 at least.
But until then remember our the greatest commandment “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Or as my dad always says, “See you here, there or in the air.”
Jeff needed to propose to his girlfriend (now wife), Natasha.
So he assembled a team of 20 animators to assist him, including co-workers, as well as students from his 3D character animation class at the Art Institute of California-San Francisco.
The team created more than four minutes of animation in just three months.
When it was completed he surprised Natasha by bringing her to the Parkway Movie Theater in Oakland, where they played the animation on the big screen in front of over 100 friends and family members.
It’s these kind of guys that make it hard for the rest of you.
I shot some random video footage over the Christmas holidays of my future niece and nephew.
Hope you enjoy — especially Brooklyn’s reaction to her early Christmas gift…

I just found an open letter from Wayne Watson published on his website.
The letter discloses his recent divorce from his wife.
This is a very difficult letter to write. For the past few years, being off the day-to-day radar of the music industry, as we know it, it’s become easy for me to think my life holds interest only to close friends and family.
But, this is a different day – a new season. God is opening doors again and with that comes the responsibility of greater accountability to those who have been gracious enough to show renewed interest in my life and the music that comes from it.
As painful as this is to tell you, I want you to be aware that Lynn and I separated in April of ’05 after 31 years of marriage. The divorce was finalized in November – almost a year ago now. It was not impulsive and was not a quick exit for someone or something else. It was an agonizing decision. The problems were long standing. After counseling and a lot of soul searching, I can only say that our marriage became impossible to live out together day by day. Between God and me, regarding all that has taken place, I am at peace.
I met Wayne in the Spring of 2003 at UMHB and he has a true heart of a minister and of God. I won’t even begin to speculate on what may have happened here, but I only hope the church can gather around two wounded souls and give them the support they need.
