Work Day

6.13.2006 — 5 Comments

Woke up this morning to my smiling daughter and the need to get up and go to work at our new pastor’s house! After a few minutes of being awake, Ella was once again ready to go back to sleep –

She’s so cute!

It was a big day working on Pastor J and Jan’s new home.

I spent most of the day working with Gabe Ritter – my electrician friend. We had planned on only needing to do a simple wiring job to make it possible for the Janofski’s to install their dryer, but ended up doing a lot more once we started on the project. It was great to see our Warsaw Wesleyan people come out and give their time and effort to the projects that we all worked on!

When I got home this evening I quickly mowed the yard, watered the garden, and then came inside to enjoy some more smiley-time with Ella. I captured a couple new video clips of her tonight that will eventually be available on her video-page here. I’m getting tired of having to change all of my camera-created .MP4 files to .MOV files before uploading to youtube – anyone have any suggestions on a QUICK way to make MP4’s in to MOV’s? (some of you have NO idea what that even means I’m sure…)

It’s Monday

6.12.2006 — 2 Comments

I could tell that it was Monday all day long today.

I didn’t want to get out of bed. I didn’t want to take a lunch break. I didn’t want to come home (too much to do).

It was even a rough day for Ella, too. She’s not been the happiest camper today:

She’s doing better tonight, but for some reason this afternoon she just wasn’t in the best mood. We’d change her, feed her, we’d walk with her, talk to her, we tried the swing, we tried the bouncy seat, we tried EVERYTHING – and she’d be good for a few minutes and then remember how much fun it was to cry and she started doing that again.

Right now she’s finishing off her late-night snack and we’ll all be off to bed very shortly.

Had a great Bible Study tonight with the guys at Hacienda. It’s so cool that we’ve all been able to keep up in our weekly readings through the Bible. We’ll be done sometime in October – a mere 4-months away! Next week we’re taking a science-experiment-break afterwards to attempt the Diet Cola and Mentos trick that we’ve all seen videos of.



Should be good fun!

In the morning I will join a handful of other men at Pastor Janofski’s new home for a workday. I think we’ll be doing a lot of painting. Pictures will be taken I’m sure!

MOVIE REVIEW: “Glory Road” (PG)

6.11.2006 — 3 Comments

Disney does it again with “Glory Road”, the latest DVD to make its way to the Sheets’ family collection!

Numerous times tonight as we watched, Jess and I both exclaimed how much we were enjoying this movie. The storyline is VERY similar to “Remember the Titans” of 2000, though the game is different. Also in this movie there is less character-study done on each player than in Titans. I think more emphasis is played on Coash Haskins.

The family-friendly production that this film is makes it worth owning for any family! And of course there is plenty of “that was a cool shot” basketball footage for the sports fanatic!

Glory Road gets a 4 out of 5 from stevansheets.com
