Keeping me busy!!!

Lately I have had time on my hands (in between working so much)...I seem to be picking up hobbies all the time now! Other than my new hobby with this blog, facebook, and my high school reunion web page, I have started to make jewlery! I love it! It is so much fun to me and I love going to work with something new to show everyone. There are some people at work asking me to make them something nice. So I wanted to share with everyone what I have been doing. I have been making my own jewlery boxes too...I think they are cute. Sometimes I take a step back and realize that I am such a nerd but thats okay. At least I am entertaining myself!

This is my cute little jewlery box...I know I am a nerd!!!

Beautiful Babies!!!

My girlfriend Lindsay James just had her little princess Kayleigh Nicole on April 7th. Life is so crazy, it seems that the majority of people move at about the same pace. For a few years all my friends were getting married...now it seems that they are all having babys! I am so happy for all of my friends that are starting their lives with the one they love and all the friends that are starting families one beautiful baby at a time.

Family Ties

As many of you know, my Father was diagnosed last year with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease). My family has been fighting this disease every step of the way. Now we are trying to raise money in hopes of finding a cure and treatment for this horrible disease. On May 17, 2008, there is a "Walk and Roll" benefit in Sparks, Nevada to raise money for the patients in the state of Nevada. This money not only goes to research, but it also helps the families in Nevada that need support (medical equipment, hospice, ect.) in their homes to survive and live a somewhat normal life.

Since this fundraiser is in Sparks, we will be able to take my father. He is in a wheelchair now and has a hard time moving around. But with this being so close to my parents home and the support of everyone going with us, he will be able to share in this amazing experience. We are setting up a team in honor of my father. Our team will be called "The Mack Pack". We would love all the support we can get. If you want to donate money, please write your checks payable to "ALS of Nevada". Any amount will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you everyone for taking the time to read my new blog. I will be updating all the time with new pictures and new news.
