Close Call

2008-11-18T11:10:00.000-08:00

So the fires that started in Santa Barbara last Thursday are pretty much out now! An area that was hit very hard was Westmont College's Campus, which happens to be where Kyle and I got married almost a year ago. Initial reports were that the cutest little white chapel ever (where our wedding was held) was lost in the fire. This was assumed until people were able to get on campus and survey the damage b/c everything leading to it on all sides was burned. We later heard it was spared :) Our friend that took these pictures said it was amazing to see. The fire literally came right up to the white picket fence on all sides on the chapel and stopped.

The fire came right up to the front door!

You can see the fire came right up next to the white picket fence that surrounds the chapel.

Below are the formal gardens that lead up to the chapel

Here We Go Again

2008-11-14T14:38:00.000-08:00

Santa Barbara has been struck by yet another round of wildfires. In early July we had the GAP fire which burned large portions of the hills above Goleta (about 10 minutes north of here) now we have the Tea Fire which started in the hills above Montecito (about 10 minutes south of here) and has spread to a large portion of the hills the run parallel to the city. Below are some pictures taken on Westmont College's Campus last night as well as a map showing current fire locations and evacuation orders. You can see evacuation orders have come right up to the edge of the city. While Kyle and I are safe and sound (we're located right by the red cross of the map below that is closest to the 101 freeway) many of our friends have been evacuated and at least one family we know has lost their home. This fire started last night around 6pm and quickly grew! More strong winds are expected tonight and into the weekend. Please pray for the people of Santa Barbara.

scavenger hunt.....

2008-10-24T12:23:00.000-07:00

suz, a bunch of friends and I had a scavenger hunt recently. it was a goodbye party for our friend Meg. she moved to Texas. I'm guessing cause she wants to own a home, or she like everything big. anyway, the scavenger hunt was anywhere between santa barbara (here) and Santa Maria (about 50 mintues north). we were placed into teams (different colors), all assigned to wear our team color and jumped into various cars and off we went. each team had a list of things to do or get. the time limit was 4 hours. and the finsh line was in santa maria. so there where things to do all along the route. from building a sand castle at refugio beach, drinking a pint at cold springs taveren, stapling a pair of underware at the Maverick Saloon, getting an ear pierced or getting a picture with a bride and groom at thier wedding (which we did). first the ear piercing. yup I did it. almost everybody did. that included about 10 plus guys that got their ear pierced. pretty funny sight. and yes suzy did too. not so bad for a chick. the adventure was a blast. we all met up at a park in Santa Maria for dinner, then drove to the drive in movie theatre to watch Batman. it was awesome. enjoy a few of the pics.....

guess who was on the yellow team...

our friend Jon. he'll eat your arm if you don't watch out.

yeah, we had to do and find some funky stuff

including a new sports car. only in santa barbara will you daily find a brand new Ferrari with an owner willing to let you sit in the car. or even test drive it around the block. we didn't drive it. but all piled into it. honestly I liked my honda civic seats more.
ear pierced......

drive in movie theatre...

I guess when you get married, you taste rubs off onto your spouse. or maybe suzy just liked my jacket enough to get one for herself. I like the idea that I already had the jacket. at least they aren't the same color. geeeez

watching the movie from our chairs and cars. eating some food and sipping a brewsky. what a great life.

Just Because It Was So Much Fun!

More pictures from our trip to Cancun

Riding Bikes in Carp

2008-10-22T16:55:00.000-07:00

Some of the great things about living in Santa Barbara are all the various festivals and events that take place, the great weather and the gorgeous views. A couple weekends ago we decided to take advantage of all of these things. The avocado festival is held every year around the first weekend in October in Carpinteria. They block off the main street and pay homage to all things avocado: guacamole and....well that's about it. Kyle and I loaded up the bikes in the back of the trucks and headed down to the festival where we met up with our friends TaraLynn & Magda. Turns out there's not a whole lot to do at the avocado festival other than eat. So after eating nothing that contained avocados we all headed out to the bluffs for a bike ride. We cruised around and enjoyed the day.

The Beautiful Bluffs of Carp!

Sort of a weird spot for a stop sign.... It's either our tax dollars hard at work or very optimistic city planning.

Kyle showing off his massive muscles!

We're Back!

2008-10-14T17:14:00.000-07:00

Ok, so we sort of abandoned our blog for the past couple months, but we're back now. Here's a little update to take you through some of the highlights of our Summer. So here we go in no particular order.....

In June we went up to Turlock for my 10yr high school reunion. While we were there, we spent a day in Yosemite with my parents. Below is a picture of us at the top of Vernal Falls. This is a great hike up what seemed like an endless amount of stairs carved into the granite. Definitely worth checking out next time you're in Yosemite.

In August we went to El Paso TX to see a good friend of mine get married. Who knew El Paso was so green?? Congrats to Veronica & Jorge Aguilar!!!

Many of our summer nights were spent BBQing and playing Ping Pong in our driveway.

In September we went camping on a private beach just north of Refugio (about 30 minutes North of Santa Barbara). It was a sunny, warm September weekend and we had this beautiful beach all to ourselves until the cops came and made us leave. We were able to spend one night and an entire day there before they spoiled our fun.

Santa Barbara celebrates summer solstice with a big parade down State St. The whole town shuts down to watch the parade filled with all kinds of trippy hippies and weird stuff. One of the floats was the biggest tricycle we've ever seen!

In June our friends Sophie and Travis got married here in town at Elings Park. Congrats to the Spiers!

I changed jobs in early August and we decided the week I had off between jobs would best be spent in Cancun. We had a really fun trip! We took a catamaran out to a little Island off the coast called Isla Mujeras. This Island, 3 miles long by 1 mile wide, has the most amazing beaches I've ever seen! Anyone looking for an inexpensive, easy vacation should check out www.cheapcaribbean.com.

Look closely and you can see Kyle on the rock at the base of Bridalveil Falls. Yosemite is filled with the most incredible waterfalls and views.

We rented a golf cart on Isla Mujeras and drove around until we saw this. The water was crystal clear and knee deep for about a half mile out. I could live here

While in Turlock for my High School reunion, a friend of mine took us up in his plane. The airport is across the street from my family's farm. This is a shot of the farm from the air.

Kyle flew the plane for a second....it was frightening.

We are brewmasters.....well we try. This is 5 gallons of our latest Pilsner.

We kicked off the summer with a camping trip to Big Sur in early June. We met a lot of fun people on this trip and made some great friends. Big Sur was beautiful and it was the perfect way to start a great summer!

So that pretty much sums up the last few months. Going through all these pictures brought back so many great memories. A big THANK YOU to all our friends and family who were part of these memories and countless others; we're truly blessed!!

LOTS TO COME..... tomorrow hopefully.

Santa Barbara

2008-05-23T16:50:00.001-07:00

we had not the best weather outside right now. yesterday was nice, but today the clouds rolled in. I came across these pictures of Santa Barbara at work today. they reminded me that not all cloudy days will last forever. not sure that anything will last forever. so the good times should be never forgotten. here are some pictures of home, not as it looks today. hope the sun comes out for the weekend.

Puerto Vallarta

2008-05-20T13:55:00.000-07:00

just got back from an amazing place in the world. Puerto Vallarta. we had so much fun just relaxing there. got some great surf too. can't wait to go back. we relaxed so much that I hardly took any pictures. kept forgetting the camera in our hotel room. oh and the resort we stayed at was insane. we also met two really cool Canadians, Kenton and Kelvin. both super funny guys from a place I've never been to.

Mothers Day

2008-05-20T13:40:00.000-07:00

Mother's Day - a day honoring mothers, celebrated on various days in many places around the world. It complements Father's Day, the celebration honoring fathers.

When I think about my mom, I can't help but think about how much I love her. most of the time I get lost of words. I mean, how can you write in a blog how much a mom means to us. where would we be without our mom. we wouldn't be anywhere. so I'm lost for words. I love you mom, if you ever read this. Thank you for everything that you have done in my life. Suz and I had a blast honoring and spending out day with you.

Marathon

2008-05-20T13:32:00.000-07:00

who knew that a marathon starts with a pancake breakfast the night before. suzy ran her half marathon, and she did it with style. very sweaty. I don't think I would have been able to finish it. it was a fun event. I rode my bike to around, and was her biggest fan.

Jens Birthday

2008-05-20T13:15:00.001-07:00

not sure if the age should be posted, but it wasn't 22 or 17. ha ha ha. we rode bikes downtown to celebrate her life. little did we know one of her talents is putting peanuts in her nose. I haven't received that skill yet. maybe one day. ha ha ha.

Beach Bon Fire

2008-05-20T13:10:00.000-07:00

Santa Barbara could be one of the best places to live in the world. it is so beautiful here. and there are so many things to do. I've grown up going to the beach my whole life. Bon Fires on the beach after surfing has always been fun. this time we made dinner too. no pics of the stars, but there were tons of them after the sunset. and if that were great enough. to top it off, enjoying all of this with friends is even better.

Biking to Red Rock

2008-05-20T13:08:00.000-07:00

rode our beach cruisers back to red rock. a swimming hole on a river. the water is starting to warm up and the grass hasn't gone all brown yet.

Blue Canyon

2008-05-20T13:01:00.000-07:00

suz and I went with some of my co-workers on a backpacking trip. it was a blast. had some great food and some great fellowship. fun times. here are some pics of the weekend trip.

blast from the past...

2008-04-22T16:21:00.000-07:00

when suzy and I first met. I yanked her into one of those picture booths one night and got this great picture. I think we only had known each other for a few weeks. I think I wanted a picture of the two of us. I kept the pictures and tacked them at home on my fridge for all to see. those were the days I only got to see her on the weekends because LA separated our lives. we had fun back then, but I don't miss those drives back and forth. now its just a 7 minute drive home from work to see her. ha ha ha. much better.

new garden

2008-04-21T15:38:00.001-07:00

suzy, our good friend Carole and myself starting a little garden at carole's house. it was an awesome time of hanging out and getting dirty. I can't even start to explain how much I miss growing things. I can't wait to get a place where I can have to my own and grow what ever I want.

body surfing

2008-04-21T15:29:00.000-07:00

another great day. a full day of work, then off to the beach to enjoy the ocean, get a little body surfing in, and watch the sunset.

Sespe

2008-04-21T15:14:00.000-07:00

oh the sespe. the joy of backpacking in the sespe. I love it there. even if its 90 degrees. its just a beautiful place to explore.

suzy was a champ. she beat me to the finish line, pack and all. there were moments, I was like "gee, slow down girl, the flowers are all blurry when we're walking this fast". we had a blast. did some car camping friday night. Saturday morning, we packed our packs and hiked in almost 10 miles to the Willet HotSprings. sunday morning, Suz and I did some exploring around the cabins, the hotsprings and the surrounding area. then packed out packs once again and hiked out. another 9.8 miles. here are some pics documenting the eventful weekend.

the long weekend...

2008-04-08T13:06:00.000-07:00

what a great weekend. we are truly warriors. drove to apple valley friday. birthday bash on saturday. got some bowling in saturday night. drove back to santa barbara sunday morning. suzy went for a 9 mile run, I rode my bike. quickly drove over the santa barbara mountains for some tri-tip sandwiches and a beer at cold springs taveren. came back to santa barbara to get ready for the next adventure. suzy flew to san diego monday morning and I went to work....... now its tuesday and I nothing to do... oh yeah, we're going backpacking this weekend to willet hotsprings. I need to get ready for that. rockstar turn to warrior...!!!

bowling...

2008-04-07T16:33:00.001-07:00

the fam went bowling after the 80th birthday bash. well I think it was bowling. the place was kind of run down. our lane wasn't straight and had a few bumps in it. to find a ball that fit your fingers but didn't weigh a ton was also nearly impossible. but we all made the best of it and got some great laughs in. especially from watching each other attempt to bowl. I'd say our best candidates for best bowling were between: jill and her thud technique, the silver fox and his hop to victory, Nick and his two-step shuffle, and suzy's determination to throw 100. we all came out with smiles on our faces.

the big 80

2008-04-07T16:16:00.000-07:00

suzy's grandpa turned the big 80 this last saturday. her grandma thru a bash for him that he will never forget. I said to him, "wow a lot of people showed up, this is great". he said, "yeah its funny, I didn't know I had so many friends." we both laughed. everyone had a fun time. here's a pic of the man himself. a legend I say. sometimes he's probably laughing at me, as I try to figure life out. heck, he's got more than 50 years on me. I think wisdom comes with age. like a wise old man. I think of Yoda from Star Wars.

weekend hike...

2008-04-04T17:13:00.000-07:00

just some pics of the family taking a stroll thru santa barbar mountains. all hikes around here are awesome right now. flowers are blooming and green color is everywhere.

trading shoes for pedals...

2008-04-02T09:04:00.000-07:00

after many attempts to keep on running, my chin splints just won't let me run down the street and back. I give up. its the most painful thing I've ever felt and the more running I do the worse it gets. I have huge knots of stuff that you can feel nest to my ankle bone. its crazy how much they hurt when I touch them. this bring me to..... I'm not running the marathon anymore. I gave my pass to my sister, who wanted to run in it but it was sold out. so suzy and my sister will be running together. I'll be right next to them on my beach cruiser. we ran last sunday for 8.5 miles. I like riding the cruiser much better. ha ha ha. I've become suzy's personal waterboy, foodboy and jacket holder.

H I B M A . . . . easter in the park

2008-04-01T13:11:00.000-07:00

we had easter in the park with a bunch of friends. potluck style after church. camera in hand, suz and my mom are trying to get zaden to speak words like Hibma. suzy's old last name. the little squirt can't say it, but they think he can. girls get all crazy over kids, especially when it come to first words. its pretty funny to watch. heres a few other pics of the day.

my wife the rollerskater

2008-04-01T12:31:00.000-07:00

last week I came home from work to find suzy roller skating in the driveway. all by herself. new talents come out just about every week. anyway, when we bought her the rollerskates at the garage sale, I didn't really think she would end up using them. I was wrong. when no one is looking, suzy is a roller skater. ha ha ha ha.

suzy

2008-03-18T12:12:00.000-07:00

what does coffee, waking up in the morning and suzy all have in common?

I'm not sure of the answer, but I do know that suzy needs coffee if there is the slightest chance she will wake up before dinner. opposites attract they say. buy why do I wake up around 6 every morning, then wonder why she won't get up too. arrrrrrrr.

anyway, I always make sure she has her coffee every morning. I'm thinking of getting an IV and hooking it up to her when I wake up, so I don't have to get swatted at, that she's sleeping.

even if we are in Gods most beautiful valley camping, she still needs her coffee. saturday morning I woke up early, made a camp fire, made some coffee, and set the cup outside the tent for suzy. it sat there for hours. then around 10, I opened up the tent door and attempted to wake her up again, while taking a little video.

the other pics are of suzy slacklining on a cable. she did really well. some other pics too.

camping this weekend

2008-03-14T13:07:00.000-07:00

we're going camping tonight, up to Red Rock. got at least 15 people not including suz or I that are coming. more the better, so if you want to crash a fun party, show up. the water should be gushing, so saturday we're going to hike back to some rock jumping spots, then might inner tube back down the river to camp. should be a blast. I might get some fishing in. I hear they've been stocking the river every week or so. it blue sky's and warm outside, but there is a chance for rain tomorrow. hope it doesn't rain on us. it just wouldn't be the ideal situation. oh, if anyone has some extra wood, bring it. I'm hoping the fire will last all night.

last night was awesome. we went to the surf flick, "Walking On Water" with my parents, jon, serenity, and the rest of santa barbara. it was a little too hectic knowning everyone and trying not to say hi. overwhelming would be a better word. once the movie started everyone chilled out. suz and I rode our bikes to beat the parking nightmare and breath a little fresh air. the theatre was sold out, over capacity. oh, and I won a tee shirt. the end.

Free surf movie this thurs night

2008-03-11T15:54:00.000-07:00

Walking on Water is presenting a surf flick this thursday night. its free. Tom Curren is playing some music too. looking forward to it. suz and I are going, if anyone wants to go with us. it starts at 7. at the arlington.

summer fun

2008-03-11T12:05:00.000-07:00

new addition to the quiver of fun. a scooter. its only 80cc, but both suz and I can get up to 35 mph on it together. this summer we're planning on using it as much as possible. to the beach, to work, to TJ's ect. heres a small clip of suzy's first lesson in how to ride it. I made her drive up and down the driveway 5 times, we called them laps. ha ha ha. she did really well, no crashes. with this movie as my witness, she wants a hog for our next bike. I'm thinking a harley cruiser. ha ha ha. we'll see if we can make that happen before either of us have a mid-life crisis.

the big 60

2008-03-10T14:50:00.000-07:00

saturday was my dads birthday. in addition to having a birthday bash later this month, we went up to san luis to have some more birthday celebration with some of the extended family. two of my cousins have the same birthdate, so we all celebrated. here's some pics of the event. hows my grandma's fro.

green reminder

2008-03-10T14:44:00.000-07:00

suzy's parking ticket is hanging from some fishing line at heads height. why were parking tickets ever put into society. arrrrr. wouldn't the world be a better place without them.

runner.... never

2008-03-05T11:45:00.000-08:00

not sure if I can blame anyone, but suz and I are entered in a marathon. freakin crazy. one minute I'm suggesting it to suzy as a fun idea, then the next minute we're on the computer paying our entry fee, at the same time, suzy's heart rate has increased with excitement and is talkiing 100 miles per hour. phewwwwww. so we're running. I haven't run since high school, for PE. so this will be a hurdle to overcome. but come on, I married a runner, so I have to make it. geeeeeeee. here's a pic of my first warm up, before our first run. I almost died later that day. and the day after I woke up with two stiff legs. I now walk like I have no joints. suzy hasn't fazed a bit. grrrrrrrrr.

great hikes

2008-03-05T10:58:00.000-08:00

saturday we went on another great hike. this time, with some other friends. it was awesome. pictures will speak from themselves.

climbing down a small waterfall

helping the "wife-ee" out.

today is SUZYs BIRTHDAY

2008-02-26T09:46:00.000-08:00

yahoo. shes turning a big 18 years old. just old enough for me to legally be married to her. I can't believe how much I love this girl.

Happy Birthday Suzy-Que, may you have a blessed day. love ya.

and look at what a beautiful day today is. picture taken from the pier early this morning. I wonder why we're living here and not Nebraska. I like our winters here.

early morning surf...

2008-02-26T09:33:00.000-08:00

life is so good. why do we sometimes go through trials and doubt that this life is good. we are all so blessed. I think sometimes its easier to understand this when we feeling good and healthy and doing something we want to do. something we dream of while work. dreaming of insane surf. now the quest is have that stoke in all times of our life. even when sick, or going through trials. to feel stoked at all times would be a great thing. a God thing.

Hiking in the rain

2008-02-25T17:01:00.000-08:00

well suzy and I tried to find this waterfall a few weeks ago, but got lost and never found it. so on Sunday, while it was raining and stormy out, we grabbed our rainwear, headlights, some food and set off for a crazy adventure. the hike was the most insane thing I've done in a while. I'm still getting goose bumps from the whole thing. it was like hiking in a tropical rain forest. super green, lush, santa barbara mountains. and the waterfall, we found it. It is the most insane waterfall I've ever seen in santa barbara. about 75 feet high. And since we've had some rain lately, it was gushing. on the way back it got dark, so we put our headlights on and hike out. to top it all off, we headed down to get some grubby tacos at some hole in the wall. what a great way to end the weekend.

Serenity & Jon Wedding

2008-02-25T16:49:00.000-08:00

our good friends Jon and Serenity got married on Saturday. it was awesome. wedding and reception took place at the Greek Orthodox Church. They're not Greek, if you were wondering. here's a few pics of the event. Suzy was the Maid of Honor. pretty cool.

a blast from the past...

2008-02-21T12:26:00.000-08:00

80s trash...

is suz the next santa barbara hippie?

2008-02-20T16:10:00.001-08:00

suz grew up on a cow farm, moved to a big city for college, now she just might be the next santa barbara hippie. well thats what she's been saying lately. her and I are taking a ceramics class with my sister and some other friends. we have a blast. notice the size of bowl suzy is throwing. she's a natural.

the new additions to the family.....

2008-02-20T15:24:00.000-08:00

the new boys to the family. franks and zaden. before zaden was born, I called them franks and beans. the fam went for a hike on the beach in Goleta, after viewing the Butterflies at Elwood.

first thursday of the month

2008-02-07T10:10:00.000-08:00

art. who can be without it. who can ignore it and who doesn't have it in them. art is a magical thing. we all have artistic abilities. some claim not to, but I would say "Everybody" has art in them. I think its God given creation that sparks our internal being with his art. we know how beautiful a sunset can be, or the ah we can get from snow tipped mountains. so, that all said, I'm pushing the involvement of people in art.

santa Barbara has a complete art show every First thursday of the month. there can be up to 3o or more different art galleries going on, all packed with people and refreshments. its awesome. today is the first thursday of February. it all takes place between 5 and 8pm downtown. here is a website of todays galleries. www.santabarbaradowntown.com

scroll down to the map. click on it to see where all the magic is happening. in addition, there is a free movie tonight at metro 4, at 8pm. The free screening of The Silly Age, is set in Havana Cuba.

see you tonight.

new header.....

2008-02-06T16:12:00.001-08:00

got a new header. its the first time I knelt before Suz. only a week after I met her. some might not now the story so here it is. I met suz the day before new years eve. New Years Eve, I new I wanted to be with her for a long time. A few days later I asked her if she wanted to go to Hawaii. she said yes. so the next weeked we were off to Hawaii for..... the weekend. then the rest just kept rolling on. this picture was taken in the most beautiful bay by a friend, Anna Walden. we didn't even know she was taking pictures. we just turned around, I dropped to my knee and click we had my first quiet proposal. ha ha ha. it felt pretty good and by the time we left hawaii, I knew that suz wasn't going very far from me. so I drove down to san diego every other weekend to see her, and she came up here the other weekends. it only lasted 7 months till the luring natural wonders of santa barbara brought suz up here, instead of me going down there. phewwww, lucky me.

and so it was, 3 months after she moved up here, I proposed. Two months later, we were married. Exactly one year from the day I met her. the rest of the story will be explained in this blog.

Blog.... whats that. oh yeah, I have one

2008-02-05T11:01:00.001-08:00

well, I could give a million excuses of why I haven't posted anything. and why I haven't posted any costa rica pictures either. and so on....

but I think I'm going to try hard to make this blog thing happen. maybe with suzy, we can get some info about us out there. oh yeah, I got married. ha ha ha. pretty darn cool. and I got married to the coolest girl in the world. love her more and more everyday.

got married at Westmont Prayer chapel. reception at Stella Mares. honeymoon in NorCal.

costa and back.... way to fast.

pictures are coming. I need to upload them from my camera, which is lost somewhere. but what wouldn't be lost if you came into your room with your hands full of a weeks worth of vacation stuff.... at 3:30 in the morning. arrrrrr........ but we made it back from costa rica. had a great 10 days of surfing, serving and seeing Gods creation. it was and will change the way I view this world I live in. for everyone that hasn't left the comfort of the USA, get the heck up and split for a while. there is a entire world awaiting your arrival.

more of costa rica to come

well we went to turlock this last weekend to meet Suzzies family. to say it in a few words..... one has to like cows, cause there are a lot of them up there.

the place is really cool. we had a blast up there. Neither Suz or I got ran over by a cow or attacked by a giant corn stalk. the only crazy thing was the bull that almost got out of the pin.

looking forward to going back up there soon. next time fishing is in the plan. there looked like there were some good spots.

Arrival.....
