Tell me he isn't the best? Lincoln had a rough week so I thought I'd post some pictures of him happy because when he got his first set of shots he wasn't. Laura left the room while I stayed with the Dr. Yikes. If that doesn't break your heart, there is a stone in your chest. He's been pretty fussy since then so I've been staying up with him. I'm posting this at 4:50am Mtn time. We watched some TV while I kept him calm. I'm heading to bed and Laura is taking over. Don't forget to listen to the new podcasts they're great. Also, don't forget to keep Jonathan and Aimee in your prayers. Aimee just gave birth to baby Levi last week so they're pretty tired. I'll be posting a new podcast soon where I call Johnny and have him talk about the new baby.
God Bless,
Merry Christmas

Hey Everyone,
Just stopping by to say “Hi.” Hope you all are doing well. Laura is doing well and we’re just crossing our fingers and saying our prayers. Beanie and Burr are great. They’ve both had surgeries and have recovered beautifully. They cause much havoc in the house. I gave Beanie a bath, and Laura gave Burr one today before our guests arrive for the UFC party tonight! There are about 21 people descending on our home tonight to watch UFC 58: USA vs. Canada tonight and to compete in the first ever Dobson invitational pinball tournament. I have to be honest I don’t think the tournament is fair though. Laura is just too good and too lucky to beat. As of now she holds the high score for a total game (3 balls) and the high score for single ball play. We have a 1979 Gottlieb “Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind” pinball machine that has been beautifully restored by the Pinball Dr.

I had to momentarily stop the blogging to break up a fight between the dogs. I tell you they go CRAZY after a bath. They’re tearing through the house after each other.

Ok, back to the blog. Laura’s single ball score is over 375,000 and her one game score is almost 1/2 million points. I’ve come close, but she has me beat. Jonathon says he’s going to take her down, but he’s just talk J

I’ll try to take some pictures tonight and post them soon. This coming week I’ll be posting a great new podcast with our very special guest Laura Dobson. She talks about the importance of missions and some of the trips she’s been on.

Until then, God Bless,
Ryan

Wahoo!! I'm going to be a daddy! Now I'll really have someone to say "Who's your daddy?" to :-) Please keep us in you're prayers. We are so stoked. My parents are freaking out which is funny. They are so happy.

Hey Everyone,
I’m so stoked you all liked the show. I was really happy to do it and I’m amazed and overwhelmed by all the positive responses. I’ll be posting here often so keep checking back. Also, my wife Laura and co-host Jonathan will be blogging soon too, so check them out.

Burr is GREAT!! For those who heard me speak in CA this past weekend you know the story but I’ll catch up the rest of the folks. My wife and I adopted a second puppy on Feb 16th. He’s a little German Shepherd puppy named “Burr.” He had a twist in his intestinal track and went in for emergency surgery on Saturday. He has come out of it with flying colors and is back to his frisky self again. He’s got a pretty major scar developing on his belly from the incision but he’ll be fine in no time. He and Beanie (our other puppy, 5 month old mutt) are getting along great and causing much havoc around the house. Keep him in your prayers. They’re both asleep now and hopefully they’ll stay that way till morning. Last night Burr woke up at 4:30am and didn’t want to go back to sleep. J

I hope you all are listening to the KOR Kast, this week’s guest is a good friend with a very powerful message on forgiveness and racism.

I’m off to bed. God Bless you all.

Ryan
