I still can't believe I'm a Dad. It seems like only a few short years ago I was going to Dead concerts, surfing all day, and being a kid myself. Now I have the pleasure of watching my three beautiful babies grow up, and I feel so fortunate to have a family of my own. 

"L" is the newest member of our family. See below for more pictures of her big day!

 

My wife Michelle is truly my better half. She is a caring, sensitive person, and is great with kids. I met Michelle when we were both attending San Diego State University. We were married March 16th, 1996 at Stephen S. Wise Temple in Bel Air, under a flower laden hoopah. A rocking 13 piece band and a well stocked bar complemented the guest list to create one hell of a party! Check Here for pictures from our wedding day. Three kids and a mortgage later, our love for one another has only grown stronger. She keeps me grounded and makes me a better person.

My last photo before becoming a dad. . . 

Family c section.gif (192739 bytes) My daughter "T" is as smart as they come. She developed verbal skills at a very young age, and has always had plenty of insightful things to say. It is amazing how quickly little one's learn, but it is also amazing how much we can learn from a child's honest, direct perspective. "T" enjoys playing dress up, hanging out with her friends, and doing art projects.

"J" is the little man in our household. His happy go lucky disposition is pure pleasure. He has beautiful green eyes and light brown hair, which gives him the fairest complexion in the family. Like many young boys, he enjoys playing in the water, watching airplanes and helicopters, and reading a good book at night.

"L" is my our youngest, and she will always be the baby girl. She loves her big brother and sister, and is already giving our cats a run for their money. So far she is a dream baby who wakes up and go's to sleep with a smile. Michelle and I spend lots of time cuddling our baby because we know she will be a big girl in a blink of an eye.
