My kids have been on spring break all week. Being out of school with time on her hands... my daughter, Emilee, made a Spring Break Gift for me. (kind of like a birthday or Christmas gift)

So, knowing that my daughter loves to draw and create things... I could hardly wait to see what she had done for her loving and caring dad.

I open it. She quickly tells me it is a game. It's called "pin the tail game".
(I used to call it pin the tail on the donkey)

I was all cool with that until what came out of her mouth next....

"Dad... that face is a picture of you."

Not sure what to think...

Anyone for a game of pin the tail on a Reeder?

What a difference one day makes!

Before the Final 4 became the Final 2... I was 49th place in the Church Planter's Bracket Challenge. After two games and one night... Now I am 3rd??? 3rd???

Confession time! I really don't care for basketball. I have not watched a single game all year... (I did watch the last 3 minutes of the Kansas vs. UNC game). I was a shock to see Memphis was a #1 seed. (who is Memphis?) hehe...

I thought it would be fun to participate in this little challenge so I did... I started guessing... and guessing... and more guessing.

• Gonzaga will surly beet Davidson... Because that is the Alma Matta of John Stockton!
• Duke over Belmont for sure... ACC team! (plus... my father-in-law pulls for them)
• Georgia over Xavier for sure... SEC team! (plus... Gary Lamb pulls for them)
• Purdue over Baylor for sure... Because Joe Sangl went to school at Purdue!
• Villanova over Clemson for sure... Because Dustin Willis went to school at Clemson! (just kidding Dustin)
• Side thought... at least Clemson made it to the dance floor... My Alabama Crimson Tide were a "no show"... and the South Carolina Gamecocks were absent too!

Absolute guessing...

Who did I pick to win it? Kansas... 73 to 70 over Memphis (Yes I picked Memphis to make it to the championship... they were a #1 seed).

Whatever happens tonight... it was fun! Thanks for letting me play...

Now... When does Fantasy Football start!?!?

I decided to play the NCAA Basketball Tournament Bracket Challenge. Thanks Passion 4 Planting... but what was I thinking???

I hate basketball... Football or Baseball... That I can do! But basketball... just can't get into it.

How do my brackets look you ask... well... um... not so good.

At this point... My goal is to finish higher than Chris Elrod! What a goal!

Currently... I am 75th, and Elrod is 85th (out of 135).

I think a few people have figured out a way to change their picks after the results came in... There is no way they could have known Siena, San Diego, Western Kentucky, and Davidson were gonna win!

When I got home from work tonight, Emilee and Jacob wanted me to guess what they had for lunch today at school. So I guessed...

Cod Fish (from Peter Pan)

They said... NOPE

Chicken Rings!!

Then I thought to myself...

What part of the chicken does chicken rings come from?

Any thoughts???

Some weird Internet searches that brought people to my site:

• boobies (man... I love my son!)
• drop it like its hot church vision (ha)
• chris reeder (duh...)
• andy stanley republican (is he?)
• church norris approved (sure am glad!)
• teens in pink tutus (sick people!!!)
• susanne reeder (man, I love that woman!)
• check e cheese ride (someone must have been looking for sermon material on Hell)
• No Sacrifice, No victory quote (what a great movie)
• churches with singles groups in Florence, SC (wow... ministry opportunity)
• Youth Aren't Sticking with the Church (hum...)
• guitar hero florence, sc (now that is what I am talking about!)

It is neat to take a look at how people end up at your site... And these are just since January 1st, 2008!

As I am typing this... I am trying come to grips with the fact that I may, indeed be a blasphemer. I have really been struggling for quite some time now...

It all started when Susanne and I went to Greenville for our get away to work on our church planter's application. I had an experience like I had never had before. Since then, I have had similar experiences... each time... there was a wow factor!

This can not be so... I realize that I am breaking ranks with the majority of church planters and other pastors out there! I might need to talk with someone about it... I am seriously getting worried about this!

Dunkin' Donuts Coffee is better than Starbucks!!!

There!!! ...I said it!!!

I love their coffee. I am a plain-jane, "give it to me black", coffee drinker (get it honest from my dad!). I don't typically get fru-fru drinks nor do I spend much time in a Starbucks to get the full atmospheric experience... So...

Coffee vs Coffee...

Dunkin' Donuts is da' bomb!!!

Go ahead, call me a blasphemer if you must... Be sure to take a sip of your fru-fru before and after!!!

I wanted to take a quick sec to address a thought that I know a lot of you are thinking after the post yesterday....

The announcement is...

Susanne is pregnant!!!

Just kidding!!!

Susanne is most definitely NOT PREGNANT!!!

Stay tuned for the real announcement...

You heard me! He can have his I-V!

I will take one of these!!!

You would not believe what I am looking at right this minute...

No... KISS is not rocking a show...

But Susanne is!!!

She is ROCKIN out on Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock on the Xbox 360.

I tried to snap a picture but I was threatened with death.

(Special thanks to Chris Craft for letting us borrow the game)

Almost as funny as this one!
