Chris in San Fran?

In March of 2008 the Zion Youth Symphony Orchestra visited San Francisco as a part of a musical tour. Chris Bowler plays the French Horn in this particuluar orchestra. The Orchestra was priveledged to play in front of three Elementary School Audiences, as well as recieving a Master Class Instruction from members of the San Francisco Opera. And while the wind was blowing quite quickly they even got to perform on Pier 39. Chris was heard to have said: "The Food was Expensive, we didn't get much sleep, our legs got tired walking down Lombard Street, but it was a good tour!" For three days the orchestra braved San Francisco. Walking the piers, touring the Golden Gate Bridge, exploring the Exploratorium, waiting in line for 1/2 an hour for a trolley, getting Chinese food delivered to your hotel room at 11 PM! It was an amazing tour!

The world must be peopled!

Lately, famous actors Chris, Brad, and Dan have acted in the play Much Ado About Nothing. Chris as Leonato Brad as Don pedro (sometimes known as "Don P.") and last but not least Dan as Benadick!

If you have not fully experienced the full joy of this play then I suggest reading the book or watching the movie.

El Necky!

Our new house is officially underway. IN fact all the walls are up, foundation is in, we have a roof, and we even have half of an HVAC. It is fun watching the house go up so quickly. We love going over to th house to hang out. We have an amazing view. We back up to BLM property (so we can do whatever we want on it) which has a river which is quite close.

Why El Necky you ask? Because (of course) it is necky.

Our new baby sister, Gabriella Ruth Bowler!

On January 30th, 2008 Gabriella was born, at 7 pounds 11 ounces. She is so cute! She just brings that special peace to our home that nothing else really can. Whenever Brad gets stressed he simply puts his hand on Gabby's head, and he is automatically relieved of stress.

She is smiling more and more often. Whenever she smiles everyone else just can't help being happy. Although the same can be said for when she cries.

She is hungry exactly every 2 hours. If she gets fed at five in the afternoon she will start crying exactly at seven.
