I got a few comments on the "25 Random Things" that I posted on my Facebook so thought I would put it on here as well. One really neat thing week - it was Kylee's Half Birthday and she's got a loose tooth! Enjoy the picture (an outtake from a family picture shoot we were trying) and the list.
1) Cannot stop biting my nails - Kylee gets very angry at me
2) is addicted to Mint M&Ms
3) worries incessantly. If I could actually focus and not worry, I'd be ten times more productive and may have more hair
4) wants to get his weight to 175 by the end of the year
5) has a goal that we do family bike rides this year. My dad took us on them when we were little
6) wish that I had played basketball my senior year. I quit because a good friend got prematurely cut but I think I would've enjoyed it and done well
7) is happy to be playing volleyball weekly
8) favorite time of day is coming home to a "DAD" and hug from a running Kylee, two little boys crawling and laughing at me behind their gate, and a wife who gives me a hug and looks grateful that I'm home
9) biggest fear at this new job is that I may be the worst golfer at work and I'm the General Manager!
10) was really embarrassed when on our first date, I couldn't ice skate and didn't realize that since Jen is from SLC, she'd be really good. So, I took Kelii's roller blade and would practice late at night when nobody could see me
11) now that Kylee wants to ice skate, am grateful those late nights falling down are paying off
12) know that I got lucky marrying someone better than I am and out of my league
13) loved the hike through Haleakala Crater to Kaupo - has tried to do it again but the stars haven't aligned. AM planning to do it with Jen one day
14) all time favorite food is crab
15) hopes that the kids get addicted to snowboarding and it becomes a family hobby
16) wishes that his kids play college volleyball . . . . . or golf
17) is a Harry Potter fan
18) has a secret ambition to start a company and work from home in HI
19) is concerned because Ryan and Trisha said I have a "favorite" twin (he's sitting next to me while I'm typing this)
20) is extremely grateful that in this economy, I have a job that provides for the family, is exciting, and I'm jazzed about
21) was born almost three months premature
22) cherishes the time Jen and I spent in Japan, those two years together while still newlyweds were absolutely priceless and something I wouldn't trade
23) is ultra competitive - I try to play it off but I hate losing
24) has no "game system" or computer games because that becomes an addiction
25) wishes for a REI shopping spree

Hey Ray!
It's fun to read more about you. I totally agree that you have an awesome wife. I met one of your many fans the other night. He's in my ward. His name is Steve Taylor. He served his mission in HI many years ago and LOVES your family. He saw your last name on my blog list and made the connection. Cool huh?
