New.

It is nice to see Vader and Wicket hanging around together at my house.  The twins got them for Christmas.  It is fresh and different around this house of girls that I am blessed to live in!

Glow.

Away in a manger.  Have a peaceful Christmas!

Wisconsin winter has arrived.

This blizzard is starting to hurt my back!!!

Snow.

Snow is coming....so get your tongue ready.

Explore.

Three fourths of my daughters went out exploring with me in the snow tonight, we ran into mountains and rivers and even dinosaurs.  I love my little explorers.

Stop and smell it.

Tis' the season where you need to stop and slow down and realize what is around you, because one of these days, you're going to miss it.

Well done Becks.

Whiskers.

I tried a mustache out during Thanksgiving weekend, I couldn't wait to get home and shave it.  Some things just aren't meant to be.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Blessings and thanks on your day..........and of course be careful with the utensils

Warm up sketch before Thanksgiving.

It's best if you warm up before you dive into things.

The days of swinging.

Even more character building.

More character building.

Character.

Just doing a little character building.  It's good for you to build character!

Sky.

Glow in the dark vampire teeth.

It's starting to get a little spooky around here.  I go outside this weekend and I see all four of my daughters running around the yard with glow in the dark fangs.  Cute....spooky cute.

Offering peace.

It is nice to be offered peace out of nowhere.  So go ahead and offer it to others.

Water.

I got thirsty.  So I drew a picture.

I inked.

Messing with the old zen brush....since soccer was cancelled.

Mirror.

Mirror mirror on the....ooooh!  Have you ever looked in the mirror and all of a sudden you have a mustache?  I have.  Sometimes it is simply hard to keep up with life.  It's not about finding time, it's about making it.  

Book.

My oldest daughter's first soccer tournament is in the books!  The Golden Daisies took the cup!!!!!! Actually,  we don't keep score in this league yet.  But coach dad likes to use his imagination!!!

Crooked.

 

Sometimes you just need to say...."YAY-HOO" (I mean yay-moo)!!!

The ponderer.

 

To ponder is to think about something carefully, especially before making a decision.  I am one who does this.

Burst.

I swear I saw a squirrel that looked like this today in my neighborhood.  The things you do when you have a sudden burst of energy.  I suppose when you got it you better use it!

Imagination.

What if...........your imagination could save the day.  Can you imagine?

Saturday.

Try something different, like a coffee drinking dog.

Peace on your weekend.

Pesky Devil.

Have you ever had a cold that bothers your day, yeah, I call that the "Pesky Devil".

Bounce.

Sometimes we overreact to different situations, stay cool this summer and know when to bounce!

Sketchy Bot.

Whelp, happy birthday to me (yesterday).

Yay-hoo!!!

Monster practice.

Just a little sketching practice with an app called Adobe Ideas. It is very clean, but stiff. I'll keep at it. Isn't that what we are suppose to do with things? Keepin at it.

Happy Birthday FALCON!

Even superheroes get older every year, but that never seems to change their superness! I have a friend who thinks he is actually a real superhero, he just turned thirty-nine. Happy Birthday Rob.

Euro '12 is going on!

So the Euro 2012 tournament is going on right now and I am trying not to watch it so much and it is not working. At least I am doodling at the same time. My wife calls it multitasking. I call it GOOOAAAALLLLL!!!!!!!!

Mr. GRASS NEED RAIN!

iPad monster.

Thanks Mom!

Thanks mom for allowing me to pin a towel to my back, gel my hair and tie a who knows what over my face, wear undies over my pants, and pretend I can fly! Thanks for inspiring my creativity. Also, thanks for not letting me go out in public like that and protecting me from bullies. My brothers and I needed a mother like you.

Good weekend in the neighborhood.

It was a good weekend just being outside with the kiddos and neighbors in the hood we live in.  I recommend loving where you hang your house!

Back to carrots.

Now that the Easter candy is gone and Spring Break is over it is back to it. 

Happy Easter!

Good luck finding all those eggs.

Return.

And then HE came back!

It's about time to be a trooper.

It's almost that time of year where I start to get a tad bit more busy.  Coaching High School Soccer, Art Club, Before School Sports Program, being an Art Teacher, teaching Sunday School, Illustrating a book, AND of course being a husband to my wife and a father to four little girls.  So the best thing to do is just put on that uniform and start blasting!    

Hello leap day.

Capable.

Yeah....you CAN fly (you just have to jump).

Fluid.

Mondays and out of coffee.  It is the absolute worst day for this.  The greatest thing about this is that I am free and can put forth the effort to go get some somewhere, IF I want to put forth the effort.  What deserves effort in your life?  Today I choose to battle the coffee shark! 

Happy President's Day!

I appreciate leadership.

Twitter.

Choose your battles.

Fighting one of those squeaky soccer balls is just one of those choices we have to choose daily.  When to fight when not to.  Think, feel, then fight. 

Blessings!

Sometimes it is just nice to realize that your days are blessings.  The sun comes up for a reason.
