If you missed the background of the challenge catch yourself up real quick.
I'm tryin' to get down to 165.
This morning I weighed in at 177.0
Two day ago I was at 176.2
Bummer
The beard is growin' till the weight comes off.
Todd has taken up the challenge as well. Anyone else want to join?
Our beards are at about the same length right now.
Went and bought some 0 and 1 point soup today.
I gotta get to the gym.
I have a feelin' I've got the Gandolph beard in my future.
Last night was the best night of sleep yet for Moses!
Alyssa let me sleep till 9:30...it was amazing.
Hung with Sofia and Mo in the morning.
Picked up Zeke.

Put kids down for nap...got an episode of Heros in.
Played with kids after nap
Went to the Osborne's for Davey's 4th B-Day...pizza, pinata's, and bikes...good times.
Got home...kids in bed...finished season one of Heros.
It's been a great day of rest after a really crazy week.
How was your day of rest this week?
The whole crew is rockin' em tonight!
It's absolute insanity trying to get all 5 people in my family in a picture.
I think all the faces sum up life at this point.
Moses' onesie is amazing.
The shirts are in. $20
They're amazing. American Apparel
All profit to the church plant.
We'll have them ready this Sunday night at the Stirring.
We have crews and v's in guys and girls...kids sizes and onesies.

The Stirring 3468 Bechelli Ln. Ste E

Put t-shirt in the memo and leave me your address and I'll send you one. I'll eat the shipping.
Help us get this church planted people.
Chest hair optional
Sorry for the sparse blogs.
I'm speaking this weekend at the Stirring. "We love the least." Matthew 25. Sheep. Goats. They didn't see Jesus. Loving the least takes seeing with the eyes of Jesus...a whole new lens...gotta come to get the rest.
I started putting my thoughts together yesterday.
This week has been all about sound and projectors and in ear monitor purchases.
God is awesome though...he woke me up a week and a half ago at 5am and downloaded 75% of my message in about half an hour. I think he knew my week was going to be busy.
Come hang tomorrow night. Did I mention goats!
Colossians 4:2-6
2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. 3 And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. 4 Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. 5 Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. 6 Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.
Praying for open doors to see what God is already doing and joining in!
New baby...no sleep
Almost 2 year old...already fully embracing the terrible two label
Five year old Evil Kinevil on a bike. Last night he cut his forehead and three inches off his bangs with Alyssa's shaving razor!
Trying to be a husband.
Purchasing all the sound and media equipment for the Stirring church plant
Overseeing Stirring Kids and Life Groups.
Leading a leadership meeting on Sunday.
Speaking on Sunday at the Stirring.
Monday is going to be amazing!
Seems like an epidemic. All the dudes at our Life Group on Tuesday have a ton going on. September started with a bang. Can't believe it's almost over.
Dumbest thing I've ever seen.
Anyone else see it?
There's no way I can get that five minutes of my life back.
Bummer.
Dropped Zeke off at school.
Alyssa took Moses in for doctors appointment.
I put Sofia down for a nap.
I GOT A TWO HOUR NAP!!!! Praise God from whom all blessings flow...it was amazing.
Nate called me half way through my nap but I'll forgive him in 7 weeks...It's what Jesus would do!
Picked Zeke up from school.
Put Sofia down for a nap.
Put Alyssa down for a nap.
Threw Moses in the stroller and watched Zeke fly around the neighborhood on his bike for an hour.
He's seriously nuts...standing on the pedals to ride faster...jumping over speed bumps...cannot believe he learned how to ride his bike a couple days ago!
I hope this isn't the season of E.R. visits in our future.
Took the kids to the Osborne's went out to dinner with my wife...thanks guys...it was awesome!
Came home...kids in bed...watched some Hero's...don't even think about telling me what happened tonight on the season premiere...we're almost finished with the first season.
Great day!
Zeke is quite a character. Not always up for trying something new.
We've had his training wheels off his bike for 3 months but he refuses to let me teach him.
He just pushes it around the neighborhood and cruises around without pedaling.
I've offered help 100 times and it's met with meltdown every time.
Tonight we were at the Osbornes.
Look outside and my son is cruisin' around on Davey's bike...riding like a seasoned veteran!
What the heck??!?
We run outside and he has this huge grin on his face as he's wheelin' through the back yard.
Can't believe it.
That's Zeke's M.O.
Didn't walk forever...then one day out of nowhere he takes off runnin!
Won't go to Kindergarten without me carrying him into class...now I have to drop him off and let him walk in by himself.
He's a trip. I love my boy. He makes me a better person.
Smile...You could have this dudes job!
My dad sent me this...classic.
Well I didn't reach my goal of weighing 175 this summer but that hasn't stopped me from setting another goal. I weighed 178.8 as of this morning but I need a new goal to get me goin' again!
This time I'm adding a little something to the plan to spice it up.
I haven't shaved since Sunday (I know I grow facial hair like Teen wolf) and I decided I'm not going to shave till I'm 165.
Haven't told Alyssa yet...she loves the beard...that was sarcasm if it didn't translate through the internet!
I'll shave the neck and trim up the sides but everything else is goin' mountain man!
I'm hopin' to get there before December.
At 165 and a gnarly beard I'll probably look like Tom Hanks in Castaway...all emaciated and dirty lookin'.
If I meet my goal before Christmas I think I'm gonna treat myself to a tattoo.
Haven't told Alyssa that either!
I want to get a treasure chest overflowing with booty that has a banner under it saying "don't store your treasure on earth" with a bunch of moths around it. Read Matthew 6:19-21 for context.
Side note: got the Vespa back today...amazing!
Just came from setting up the parking lot at the Naz.
The Stirring is having their first parking lot sale tomorrow for our church plant.
7-3pm...be there!
We might make $157,943.00
I've never seen so much stuff piled up in one place before.
Tomorrow's gonna be crazy.
Gafner's sleeping down there with all the stuff...I'm pretty sure he has a gun!
I love garage sales!
Well...hopefully in a week or so.
Most of my Redding peeps have no idea that I have a Vespa.
A 2003 Grand Turismo...and it's mint green...don't be jealous.
Ever since I moved up here it's been out of commission. Battery and other issues.
I've had it on the road for about a combined 2 hours.
In Riverside I was on that bad boy every day.
Well Gafner and I got it onto his truck today and it's going to the shop tomorrow.
I finally found a place that services Vespa's.
Hopefully I'll be back riding soon...just in time for it to start raining!
Klein and Skinner pointed out that "the hub" is my new nickname.
For all my friends that still have no idea how to use an RSS feed.
I've been designated the dude that has a ton of links to peoples sites...so I get used to take you to other people...I'm ok with it.
How many of you out there are using me ? I just want to know what our blog relationship looks like. I can handle it...I'm a big boy!

Amazing first night.
Can't wait for next week!
We blew past 50,000 visitors and I totally missed it. We were supposed to throw a big blog party and I blew it. Checked it two days ago and then forgot about it. Thank you to everyone that is hangin' out at RevRock. It's been a blast...frustrating at times...but I love the community of people we have comin' through every day.
I've just spent a couple days with my parents, my bro and his wife and I feel like the blog has really helped us stay connected through this transition of us moving up here. Mike and Becky definitely need a blog. Riverside peeps need to turn on the blog pressure for them!
Anyways, just wanted to say thanks.
If I could get you all in a stadium at one time I'd rock it like Obama and set up some sweet pillars to make me feel larger then life...then I'd tell a poop story about one of my kids!
Next blog party will not be a let down...
Just wait till 100,000!
