Luke's commercial

My sister and Luke shot a commercial a couple of months ago for a new Nickelodeon website called "Parents Connect" (http://www.parentsconnect.com/). The video recently showed up on YouTube. It's pretty cute.

I'm having trouble importing the video, but you can check it out at:

Oklahoma visit

The morning after I got back from Vegas, I headed three hours north to visit the Hansen family in Edmond, OK (Kary Hobbs' crew for those of you from A&M). Chris has been deployed since late December, so Kary has been holding down the fort that consists of Kate (4), Clayton (21 mos) and Jasper the puppy dog.
I so admire Kary for doing such a great job of taking care of everything while Chris is away. I can't imagine what it's like, but I got a taste of it this weekend. We had a fun weekend relaxing and playing with the kids, but it takes a lot out of you. :-)
We're so lucky that they live much closer now that they are back from Germany, even though we had fun visiting you there! We are praying for Chris' safe return in a couple of weeks. And we can't wait for the gang to visit us in Texas soon!

Vegas

Las Vegas is not our favorite place in the world, but it is home to a number of trade shows in the technology industry. So I packed my bags for a few days and headed out to CTIA. It was a busy and productive week, and as always, the dining was top notch. Enjoy some pics from my quick trip.

More Fort Worth fun

David's cousin Yummy was in town last weekend, so we headed over to Fort Worth the next night as well for another excellent meal. Can you see a trend here?


We had so much fun with Yummy and are looking forward to visiting her and the rest of the Hennesy family in New Orleans soon.


Another restaurant recommendation in Cowtown - check out Tim Love's Duce restaurant on Camp Bowie (http://www.eatlivedrinkduce.com/). They serve the chile-chocolate dessert that he served when he won Iron Chef. Yum-oh!

Happy Birthday, Cliff!

It's hard to believe my younger brother is approaching 30. To celebrate, we met my family for dinner in Fort Worth last Thursday. If you live in Fort Worth, you need to check out Lili's Bistro on Magnolia (http://www.lilisbistro.com/) - both the food and atmosphere are great.

Happy 28th Birthday, Cliff!
