The Gallagher Adventure

Every morning Caleb gets up bright and early, eats breakfast and then turns on the Wii. He is only three and he is winning Mario Kart races by the handful and now has discovered the fine art of Wii Fit.

Below is a video from yesterday that Carrie took of Caleb going on a 1 mile run on Wii Fit. As you listen to him run, he is saying “Hello” to the images of members of our family running by his player.

Check it our as he runs…

Hope you enjoyed!

With the children staying at Carrie’s parents, Carrie and I ventured off to hear our friends, Glenn Beck and Bill O’Reilly.  Some close friends of ours got some tickets for us and as we sat together this afternoon, we laughed and appreciated the significance of the event we were in. The passion and pride Glenn and Bill have for our country and the quest to see it become the greatest country it can be was truly seen.

I have been a Glenn Beck listener Since we moved to Charleston. While Glenn may seem like a wild maniac to many, I found myself enthralled with his thoughts and commentary on the news of the day.  Today brought a powerful message today that anyone can achieve success and hope in the country. It is possible, but the choice has to start with each one of us.

As you can see from the picture, our seats were not too far from the stage. The picture really does not do our seats justice. The two large projections screens provided an up-close view of their facial expressions and looks.

I am thankful for the opportunity that we had to attend such an event.

When Bill O’Reilly came out, the blend was perfect from Glenn’s part to Bill’s part. While Glenn provided a hilarious, yet, serious look regarding the country, Bill gave a serious look at the choices that are being made and the road that lay ahead. Bill was the same Bill as his television show; the information he shared with the crowd caused emotions to flow through the crowd. Bill’s purpose was the same as Glenn’s –> Success is possible, but it starts with each one of us!

The last section of the show was Glenn and Bill going one-on-one with a small question and answer session that provided some great responses, personal information and hilarious moments. 

Carrie and I really enjoyed the show and look forward to gaining more insights.

Yes, we are a Fox News family!

Just some thoughts!

After a while of watching Caleb throw and kick his football across the room, I decided to do a little filming.

Here is the video –> (By the way, watch him throw a spiral at the end.)

After a series of non-updates, I finally got around to adding some photos of Alexis’s softball games. She is playing fast-pitch softball in the fall league to get her ready for the spring.

Six years ago today a small little girl entered the world and brought “Grace” to our lives. Her presence in our life has transcended our hearts and minds. We thank God each day for this little bundle of God’s continued pouring on our lives.

Emma Grace was 6 pounds and 10 ounces of pure grace.

When Alexis first looked at her newborn sister, her jaw dropped, her eyes widened and her amazement. Carrie and I will never forget the look on Alexis’s face.

Today is six years that Emma Grace entered the world. She has brought us joy beyond belief everyday. Here are a few pictures of Emma through the years.

Here is our Emma Grace!
