Erin went to Utah for the weekend....


Something is weird with the blog formatting..... all my links have disappeared....here's hoping a quick post will fix that....

Erin went to Amy's wedding shower this weekend in Utah and she took the above picture.
It's a picture of my little brother sporting a toilet paper wedding dress... word on the street is that some video exists of a few other men in similar attire, but I've been threatened with Cub Scout era photographs appearing on the internet if I put them up on the blog.

This weekend was also Jenny's Birthday so she and Richie were in SLC......

Because Erin was out of town.... Battlecat and I went on multiple walks, and I started watching Arrested Development.... Season 3 was $8 at Costco the other week..... I haven't seen the other seasons but I'm really enjoying Season 3.

I also went to see The Departed which was way intense...it's one of the first movies I've seen where I didn't want to slap Leonardo Dicaprio..... he was amazing in this film.

I also spent some quality time with the Matthews. Jason and Julia taught me a new card game by taking turns beating me in the card game..... I came to the realization that if I spent enough time at home watching tv I could destroy anyone on that new game show 1 vs 100..... and Jason and I batted around several suggestions for reinforcing the perimeter of his home. Possible ideas range from tacks on the fence, to a gorilla taking up residence in his backyard, to poison-tipped blow darts and fishing wire.....

That's all for this update...

Back in Houston.....

Behold.....ChristopherGinoDean.net modeling an old school leather Bronco helmet.....

I was on the campuses of CU, CSU, and WY last week for work, and the highlight was meeting Chris at the Denver Broncos store at the stadium! I picked up a hat with the really old logo (the horse not the D), a pacifier for our neighbor Abby G, and a collar for Battlecat so she can show the Broncos some love. Every time Abby G wears her Broncos onesie (pictured below)... they win.... so I figure maybe the pacifier can remind the Broncos not to suck....

Erin had this past weekend off of school as she had finished exams! To celebrate we cleaned one floor of our house and the main bathroom. Battlecat was quite sad as there were multiple vacuums running at the same time. We cleaned the fridge... the stove..... it was that kind of a weekend..... On Monday we did spend a little bit of time actually hanging out... so on our neighbors recommendation we went to see 'Little Miss Sunshine'. By the end of this feature I'd nearly wet myself..... so if you can deal with a foul-mouthed and seriously inappropriate grandpa.... then you'll probably dig this show.

This past weekend was also the National Desiring God Conference at Bethlehem Baptist Church. The topic: The Supremacy of Christ in a Postmodern World. The audio can be found here:

So far I've listened to Tim Keller, Mark Driscoll, and Voddie Baucham along with both Q&A sessions.... phenomenal.

Erin is back in school - so that's a bummer..... and Battlecat has runny poop which is a different form of bummer.

That is all for now.......

Please don't suck tonight Utes....
