Paige, Josie and I proudly announce the world premiere of our very first full-length music video to “All the Small Things” by Blink 182.

BEWARE – It’s fully of extreme silliness!

Enjoy!

Facebook rocks…

A quick post on Facebook asking where people love to eat in Southwest Florida — results in a ton of Southwest Florida Restaurant Recommendations!

Are you interested in seeing the International Space Station come to life?

It all started in 1998, and this time-lapse video from USAToday shows you exactly how the International Space Station has been updated and added to over the years.

A few weeks ago, Sebastian & Friends were playing in Moscow…

…and I’m still laughing at what happens in this video at about the 1:58 mark.

It’s almost like he pulls it out of thin air…

Nice catch, Sebastian!

The American Museum of Natural History has produced this amazing video…

documenting the Known Universe – scientifically rendered for you to see.

This film was produced by Michael Hoffman, and directed by Carter Emmart. Brian Abbot manages and Ben R. Oppenheimer curates the Digital Universe Atlas. The exhibition at the Rubin, Visions of the Cosmos: From the Milky Ocean to an Evolving Universe, opened on December 11 and continues through May 10.

Thanks, Mongoola, for sharing this with me!

Man, I’ve always had an interest in astronomy, and this is very exciting…

Apparently, according to this article on CNN.com:

http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/space/08/08/space.kepler.discovery/index.html

The new Kepler Telescope has spotted a planet out there that’s pointed at a star (sun) and the planet’s hot side is 4000 degrees (and it glows!)   That’s a pretty amazing find since the new telescope hasn’t even started its official operation yet!

Can’t wait to see what’s discovered!

It was 2002 when my first daughter was born, and I continually work to assure I’m “in the moment” and plugged in when my girls talk to me. I really believe we have an amazing relationship!  (If you want to read a really interesting story about my girls & I, visit my Parenting Plan web site).

Here’s Keith’s article – be sure to learn more by reading his related blog entry as well (Thanks Keith!)

Today’s our last day in Germany.

Usually, on our final day, we hang out, explore, shop and get ready for the big trip home…

We visited many of the churches in downtown Munich, along with the Hofgarten, and English Garden as well.  

Yes, we even stopped by the fairly new Apple Store in Munich, very cool!

We stopped by and watched the Isar river surfers too (you can see them too):

We hope you had a good time following our adventure – be sure to check out today’s photos!

See you soon!
