sticker collections.

[ i am the (self-proclaimed) sticker-collecting king. ]

it didn’t take my whole life to realize that i was a collector. just the first eighteen or so years. growing up i collected all sorts of things from keychains and garbage pail kids to stamps and olympic paraphernalia. the ultimate collection i had in my late teens was stickers. all sorts, from board shops to aftermarket automotive shops.

coffee table from my first apartment.

i still have a box of these type of stickers with no where to put them. yet.

not to mention the clothes dryer that i covered after kristy and i got our first place. it was a work of art. i wish i had a pic, but i couldn’t find one.

and now as a full-blown old man :) i found a nifty place for my fruit sticker fetish. inside the vitamin cupboard door.

this disease has even trickled into noah and ezra’s room. this is inside the door of their “junk” locker.

never bored: prince board games.

[ turn the honey-do list into a game. ]

ezra and i were home one random summer day while mom and noah were at the doctor and we decided to please mom while having some fun. it’s been months since kristy asked me to put wheels on the coffee table so that we could easily move it around the living room. mainly to make room for some intense competition on the Wii!

in order to move it, we had to empty it out.

while we had all the games out, we did a quick inventory of the prince games.

and i now realize how blessed we are to have the toys-r-us game aisle in our very own living room.

david jerome: roastbeef’s promise.

[ the last book i can remember reading and actually finishing was indian in the cupboard back in sixth grade or something. it takes a lot to grab my attention and even more to hold it. a certain birthday present i received this year met par as i finished the 330-page adventure in 7 days. ]

david jerome gave me his book, “Roastbeef’s Promise” this year at my tender age of 32 and man did it hit home.

every action-packed chapter, every hair-raising sub story within the already-stimulating story, every dramatic character encounter harmoniously strung every string in my vangabondaged heart. if you can’t already tell, i highly recommend it.

funky child: kristy’s venture resurrected.

[ many years ago, kristy started funky child out of a love for creating. now that the boys are getting older, and with time and wisdom under her belt, she is ready to ramp up and start making clothes again. ]

she started a new blog. you can check it out at funkychild.com.

jimmy cheng photography.

[ Jimmy and Sen Cheng are not only one of the coolest couples we know, but also some of the best photographers around orange county, possibly the universe. ]

In just 2 short years, Jimmy and Sen took a hobby and turned it into a thriving business. we had the privilege of them shooting us in our humble downtown. see the slide show here.

Here is Jimmy’s blog.
