Fun at gymnastics on Wednesday mornings.

I got tagged by Donna to do this list.

1. I can’t spell that well and my gammer sucks. My wife used to proof my blog posts when I had my rentvine blog set up as her home page, but now I have too many blogs.
2. When I was 17 I rode my bike across the country with the American Youth Hostels organization.
3. I went to the University of Miami and Berklee College of Music. I studied audio engineering and had to be somewhat proficient at drums although I am not very good. (me in the middle at UM)
4. My favorite food is my mom’s chocolate chip cookies – I can still eat a whole batch and love it even when my stomach is about to explode!
5. I have amazing parents that have been my supportive rock for my whole life.
6. I am 4th of 5 kids in my family.
7. I designed the sound system for many large facilities when I was an acoustical engineer like the Pittsburgh International Airport, The Orange Bowl, Jack Murphy Stadium the Dean Smith Center.
8. I am a big ABC LOST fan, I think the writing on that show is amazing.
9. I spent my 20′s in Kansas City and became a Republican but I voted for Obama.
10. I used to work on a cruise ship and travel around the world. (me on the left)
11. I starting getting gray hair at 16. I can remember my math teacher Ms. Trip announced this to the whole class one day.
12. I had a beard once or twice, maybe 3 times.
    
13. I went to the dark side and started boarding about 6 years ago.
14. I got RK surgery on my left eye about 15 years ago – best $2,000 bucks I ever spent.
15. I like to keep the house at 63 degrees at night in the winter.
16. I used to be pretty good at volleyball, never won any tournaments but always had a great time.
17. I love living in Colorado, ever since I was a teenager in CT I wanted to live out here.
18. I have an amazing wife. She thinks I am a little crazy when I do some of my odd linkbait ideas.
19. I eat way too much at parties, I just can’t stop myself.
20. I hate to run, but after I do I feel really good.
21. I didn’t ask anyone to the prom, I was too shy.
22. I graduated 125th out of 250 in my high school class. I guess I am Mr. Average.
23. Most of the stuff I am good at I am self taught in. I am not great at anyone thing but I am good at seeing the big picture.
24. I hate wearing suits, most of my suits are about 20 years old.
25. My initials spell Dad. I hope that means I am a good at it.

Molly plays Firefly, a piano duet with Ms. Chandi Beck.

We can’t say enough good things about “Ms. Chandi”.

Molly has come a long way in the 11 months since she started.

Molly and Jenny started piano lessons with Ms. Chandi Beck in January 2008. Their very first recital was held at The University of Colorado College of Music, Grusin Hall on June 8, 2008. Thirty-seven other students, aged 3 to 18, played piano and violin. Ms. Chandi & her brother, Kurt, performed piano and violin to close the recital.
