Our families were in town this weekend and we had a smashing birthday party for Jaden yesterday, it was fun. I’ll put some pictures up pretty soon. But right now I’m sad because everyone is gone.

Here is the audio of the message I gave this weekend. Remember, this is only my second time speaking here, so give me some slack…

So I’m watching Jaden this morning while Suz is at the shop and he poops three times within an hour and a half!

Well life has been busy, between adding new band members through auditions and figuring out schedules, trying to find information for a missions trip, and planning my teaching out for this week, I have abandoned some friendships the past couple weeks. Sorry, if you’re one of those people. I did however get a chance to play some poker at JR’s place tonight and pretty much cleaned house. I ended up 17 bucks. So I’m abandoning friends and taking their money!

Do you ever have to make really tough phone calls where you dial the first six numbers about a hundred times trying to use the Force to make your finger hit that seventh number, but nothing, until you finally distract yourself enough that you accidentally make the call, no turning back? Yeah, had a couple of those today. Suck.

I’ve been reading some of my Dad’s sermons to see if I can steal anything for my teaching next week. I’ve found so many pieces of wisdom, it’s been amazing and emotional just to read the things that I remember him teaching me from when I was a kid. Crazy. Anyway, here is a quote from one of his teachings that I thought was funny.
“A painter may be an atheist - but if he displays creative ability, it displays the creativity of God - every good deed, every good gift - gives glory to God.
God is in charge of the ‘goodness program’ - the ‘debauchery program’ is in our hands!”

So yeah, the concert was awesome. They were filming that show and the previous three nights for a live dvd that they are going to release in the fall. The show started off awesome, we were in the balcony, but were only about 50 feet from the stage. About half-way through though, Jeff Tweedy’s amp started fading in and out and he got noticably frustrated. He then told us that they would have to take a break and fix it. They thought they fixed it. They repeated the same song. The amp was still acting up and so Jeff traded the amp for multi-instramentalist Pat Sansone’s amp. They played and amazing version of Sunkin Treasure, but after that song, he told us that he was being shocked while he was playing, so he put his guitar down and told us that he was just going to take requests and play acoustic. So they played and played and played. And it was awesome. Over three and a half hours. Crazy.

Just got back from a wonderful two days in Chicago where we met up with Shane and Erin and saw Wilco at the Vic theatre. They played 38 songs. Enough said.
