Keep in mind that I'm holding my shirt tight against my stomach and I'm not sticking out my belly at all. Also keep in mind that baby's sometimes grow in your butt, and that's probably why it looks like my butt is pregnant too.

What motivates you?
A few weeks ago I started doing research on getting a Doctorate of Business Administration. While talking to one of the admission counselors, she said that if I complete the program I will have a published dissertation that I can look back on with pride. I told her that I'm not really motivated by being published. I then asked her if I could make my kids call me Doctor if I finished the program. She said yes.
I start my Doctorate on June 27 at Walden University.

Chairs!
Here are some pictures of the most recent chairs I've painted. This one was for the granddaughter of a retired teacher, Rowen, who is also Ruby Sun's cousin.
This one was for Kaley's sister Kelsey and her 2 year old Caden.

Paul Jarvis
The man mentioned above is Sara's future lover. He is one of my favorite people in the world and they would get along so well.
I was recently named to the position of Student Opportunity Award Chairman. This means that I will be chairing the committee that reviews the applications of students who need money that is raised during the K-State Proud campaign. I have told you all about the campaign before, but now I have direct contact with the people who receive those awards. It is the coolest opportunity I have ever had.
I was asked to give a student profile a while back for the K-State website. They recently posted the new profiles on the website. Click here to view my profile!!!
Life is great! I have been given a lot of awesome opportunities here at K-State and I couldn't be happier!
Look up Paul Jarvis on Facebook. Sara and he will fall in love in a week or so.

Exciting 3 days for the parents
Being the good husband that I am, I bought your mom a new lawnmower Saturday morning. And I captured the special moment of her first trip around the yard....
Saturday night, we went to the James Taylor concert. Along with everyone in Wichita over the age of 50 and one 4 year old. Guess where she sat? Even with her kicking the back of our seats through the first half of the show, it was a great evening and here is a pic from our seats.
You'll have to take my word for it. That is James Taylor and the seats were awesome.
And then tonight, the biggest event of them all. Mom received the Golden Apple award for being the best teacher at her school. That makes 3 Apples won for teaching excellence in our household. I have zero. You do the math.

Update from the bathroom
23 years old and severe weather still frightens me.
Last night, storms ripped across the Central Texas area. Our weatherman kept interrupting Biggest Loser to bring updates--I immediately become scared. So, knowing how mom is able to fix everything, I give her a call and ask her what to do. (Insert the story about me telling grandpa he should call mom to tell us where the car is in the parking lot). She tells me the proper precautions to take...
Meanwhile, my roommate Nikki had just gotten done eating at a Mexican restaurant. They make these margaritas that are ridiculously strong and incredibly good. Having just had two 'ritas, tipsy Nikki returns home and as the sirens sounded, we stockpiled ourselves in the bathroom.
As you can see, I'm scared and she's tipsy.
The good thing about having tipsy Nikki in the room is she made it more funny than frightening. In fact, I believe after this photo was taken she said "It's a good thing we're in here, I may throw up." She was also brave enough to leave the bathroom to ensure we had all the essentials: flashlights, candles, lighter, pizza, cake, DDP and Vodka. Boy were we prepared.
We had also turned the tv up very loud to hear updates. Our meteorologist said that putting football or bike helmets on your children was a good idea to keep their heads safe. I remembered that I had my bike helmet inside, so... I kept myself safe.
Still terrified, and she's still tipsy.
We stayed in the bathroom for probably 30 minutes.
There was no tornado.
And I would like to conclude by saying that just because I'm from Kansas does NOT mean that I'm immune from tornadoes. People kept telling me I had no reason to worry because I'm from Kansas. All the more reason to be scared, I say. I've seen what tornadoes do. And they scare me. The end.
