Life is Good

by ClarkeW on April 18, 2009

So I know it’s been forever since I posted here, so I thought that I’d offer an update of whats going on in my life.  I really haven’t had much time to post here over the last few months because I’ve been extremely busy with other projects and many other things.

ellerys-professional-pictures-7-weeks-old-034-largeThe most important thing that I’ve been involved with though is the birth of my daughter Ellery.  She was born on Feb 1st on Super Bowl Sunday and it was probably one of the most rewarding moments of my life up to this point. I’ve got to admit that I was very nervous about being a dad before she was born, but today I can honestly say that my life is 1000% better now that she has come into it.  I was always told that having a child is life altering event and I can definitely see that now as my perspectives on a lot of things have changed since she was born.  So right now life is good and I only see it getting better as Amber and I get to watch Ellery grow up and celebrate every part of her life. Now as I consider everything that’s going on in the world today; it becomes apparent to me just how lucky that I’m to have an amazing wife and beautiful daughter who both mean more to me than anything else in this world.

I don’t know how much I’ll be on here to write in the future, but I definitely will every now and again.

Sarah Palin Rap from SNL

October 26, 2008

This is probably one of the funniest videos that I’ve seen in a long time.  It’s the closing rap from the end of Sarah Palin’s appearance on Saturday Night Live last week.  I’ve probably watched this video 50 times since then, so I thought that I’d share it with you.
I hope that you enjoy it [...]
