whoa-whoa wee-wo! christmas was awesome! actually i only got socks and underwear. typical. no, not really. i also received an acoustic guitar 2 weekends ago and new tires for the jetta. anyways, i was given some awesome gifts though. my mom thought it was a brilliant idea to have some sort of competition today through the art of ginger bread architecture. the competitors consisted of myself, my dad, my grandmother, and my grandfather. unfortunately my mom was the judge. but there were some awesome moments. later you will see a video of what i am talking about. but here are some pictures of the day that i thank little baby jesus in a tuxedo shirt for. actually no, i like jesus singing lead vocals for lynerd skynard with a full angel band and im in the front row hammered drunk. yeah. that’s my jesus.

and this is who got first:

2nd, but not left out:

and 3rd and 4th:

an incredible day with the family. and enjoy this video! bye bye!

well tis’ the season so they say. the night before christmas, and honestly today does not feel like it should be. christmas has totally changed for me and family. maybe because i received my present last weekend. i’m not sure sure though. but its the holidays and i am very glad to be spending them with my family. i hope everyone has an awesome christmas! bye bye.

so i just returned from the texas roadhouse in tracy, and it was awesome. it was spencer’s mom, connie’s, birthday. personally, the feel of the restaurant is not to my liking. they throw peanut shells on the ground. and is constantly dirty. ugh. and we sat at this table that only sits six. there were seven of us. i was not happy. our waiter asked if i wanted to just sit on the table. and i don’t role like that. if you know me, and if you do, then you know i don’t. that was a little fun fact for you all. he retrieved me and chair and i sat at the end of the table. so i order the fried catfish with mashed potato’s and a side salad with no eggs. it was awesome. i really thought that having a catfish being so close to the delta wouldn’t be that healthy for me. but it was awesome. i ate everything off my plate. i rule. spencer got the half stack of ribs. i could smell the yummy goodness steaming off of his plate from where i was. too bad he couldn’t finish. lame! and our waiter, i think he was hitting on me. kind of weird.

funny thing too. jill, jaime’s mom, was drunk! she said she only had a buzz but come on. if you were there then you would see what we saw. and it was hilarious! i guess her drink was stronger than she thought. jaime gagged a little when she tried it. but never the less it was awesome night. these last couple of days have been very good to me. not just because when the city sleeps i rule the streets. ha! that’s a quote from cobra starship. awesome. but life is amazing.

well i’m throwing at a challenge to you all (being my readers). christmas day me and my family will be holding our yearly ginger-bread-house-making-contest. with that being said, whoever thinks they out-do my ginger bread house, bring it! i am very talented artist so its going to be hard to beat me. but do it!

oh, and here is a video from cobra starship that i am totally digging right now. the song and the video is awesome. enjoy.

finally! i did it. i have a decent haircut. and it is still awesome. just like me. awesome.
