15 Years of Bliss

August 5th, 2010

Lena, Kei and I just came back from Holland, Michigan where we celebrated our 15 year wedding anniversary at the Dutch villages and on the sandy white beach of Lake Michigan.

Man, what a great time.

Back in Clayton and back at work. Lena is prepping Operation Shower for some exciting showers in the month's ahead. I'm so proud of everything she's accomplished with Operation Shower - despite being the best Mom in the world, taking care of Kei, running our house and being an awesome partner. She is superwoman.

I'm back in the office and kicking up a bunch of dust around some exciting projects/products we are developing.

Stay tuned for more info.

March Madness

March 15th, 2010

I had a great business trip to Jefferson City on Friday where we gave an agency pitch and met with a new client. Lots of fun.

Building a professional services firm is an exciting endeavor and I am very proud of the team we've assembled. It's so much fun to bring on young, hungry and humble folks who are truly passionate about delivering excellence to those clients we are fortunate enough to win. Every day is fun and brings new challenges.

Keilan continues to grow into the most amazing little man. I am so lucky to be his father. He just got glasses and he's so proud. I'm happy they aren't exact replicas of Harry Potter ;>)

Thought of the Day

Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more.
If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.

Back Online

January 11th, 2010

OK, I was having some problems with the Bliss Blog, but a friend of mine was able to fix the database issue and we're back online. Realizing there's more to blogging than Facebook updates, Twitter posts and the rest of the shorty award world, I'm hopeful to spend a little more thoughtful time here.
