The Narrative of Kurt & Becky

I am really proud of these gals. I was very happy to go into work a bit early on Wednesday so I could leave work early to go over to HBHS to watch a ton of our awesome seniors graduate. Many of them I wasn’t able to find and/or photograph in the madness after the ceremony, but nevertheless I was there and heard their names read! It is my prayer that these kids will keep striving for their goals and find happiness in college, a career, the armed forces, or whatever their endeavour may be… and keep that Christ is their strength and cornerstone throughout.

This was the first graduation at HBHS I went to since my own. It was very much the same – no much changes through the years, apparently. Although, I am pretty sure they pat them down now beforehand to avoid any beach ball incidents. I must say that graduating from University was my favorite – Definitely my preferred ceremony. CSULB knows how to celebrate. GO BEACH!

So I’ve made a couple of changes around the site. First, I’ve move our pictures frmo Gallery to Flickr. You can use the link on the left to see ‘em all. The reason I did this was to better integrate blogging with photos.

The other enhancement is lightview. It’s this neato little script that will pop up a full-size picture in the same window if you click on it. (I don’t think it’ll work if you use a rss reader)

Test it here:

So we had this contest at work – it really wasn’t a huge deal – more or less something to make a tedious task more fun. There were four of us competing. Honestly it was kind of unfair because it was reliant upon the employees response. But the prizes… I do not care how hokey-pokey, corny, cheap, expensive, awesome, whatever…the prize is who doesn’t want to win? There were cool prizes to be had and several to chose from…
I WON!! This means I had top pick and I got to choose three (then because it was so fun everyone else got to pick 2 each! I got a metal business card holder w/company logo, an expensive metal can cozy and/or small insulated mug w/company logo. But my FIRST CHOICE was……….

Reference: Urban dictionary “Bum bag = The British equivalent to a fanny pack, because fanny back in Britain means something entirely different. (Let’s just say, in England, only women have fannies.)”

I got this fun little thing for myself, Mom and Blair & Christie after John mentioned one day that his Mom (shout out: Hey Romayne!) has a butter dispenser for corn on the cob. I personally have a deep rooted love for Bed, Bath and Beyond, and so I was there decided to get this cute little fella and a couple of his friends. This way, we can be almost as fancy as Romayne and her giant gourmet kitchen.

Now I find out there is a Butter Girl?! Cute!
Anyway, we busted out le Garçon de Beurre on Sunday whilst enjoying some corn. Here’s Butterboy’s issue.

Look at this guy. Hey cool guy, will you be my friend?
