• I Skipped Stretching And Now I’m Paying For It

    I’ve been doing this whole fitness thing for over half a century now and while I am well acquainted with stretching and the substantial list of benefits one can enjoy from the endeavor, once again I find myself regretting my lack of discipline to actually partake in the act....
  • All This For A Dog

    It was a week ago today. On Tuesday September 19th at 9:07am, with her family around her praying and comforting her, with our hands on her warm little body and her head resting on Ana’s arm, Ellie’s precious heart stopped beating. Her sister asked to lie beside her. Bella...
  • Men Doing Man Stuff

    A week ago Sunday, I said goodbye to Ana and our children, and started driving north to Alabama. Along with starting a security company, over the past year I have earned my instructor certification with ASP for baton, handcuff and tactical light, as well as my instructor certification for...
  • A Word About Guns And What I Do

    I need to start this article by saying that this is a controversial topic. I won’t debate this with anyone, I just want to share an educated perspective with the hope that it will provide some level of understanding for those that are not educated or experienced on this...

    We roll out of bed at 5am most days, then return to those cozy sheets around 10pm for a few quick hours before we start it all over again. We do our best to start the day with prayer and some Bible time but I would be lying if...
  • Shooting Strong

    It’s something we used to do a lot of. And Ana is one of the very best I have ever worked with. Her beauty is timeless, but it’s her ability to express herself, and move for the camera in a way that just works every time, that made her...
  • Cole The Camera Clown

    Cole is a funny kid. Not in a “we need a therapist” kind of way, just plain old-fashioned funny. If there is a moment otherwise devoid of color, he will paint it gloriously with something funny. Sometimes there is no purposeful intention, it’s just his four-year-old mind making sense...
