I had a great conversation with my Mom this week about things she remembered as a child during the summers of the 1950s. My mother recalled family reunions, get togethers, and having red soda, red beans, and watermelon to celebrate Juneteenth. "Your Big Mama (my grandmother) would have Big Red. That is what I remember. Also, we would make ice-cream, homemade with the CRANK!"

The red commemorates the blood that our slave ancestors shed, the hardship they went through, and their hard work to over come.

Juneteenth is not just black history it is American history. So let's celebrate freedom, and the part we still play today in making sure all of us remember and honor how our country over came slavery, and how we continue to work to treat each other as brothers and sisters, no matter were we come from.

Honoring my Dad on his birthday. These last few years I have been thinking of him more and more. Even just throughout the day. I honestly just miss talking to him about life. Today, I give a huge thank you to all he did to help me, teach me, and encourage me. Love you and miss you Dad.

Northbrook High School celebrates 50 years!Tonight the faculty and staff invited all the former students for an Alumni Night. Loved how they welcomed all of us in...and the tour was fantastic.

I also had a fantastic chance to reunite with my classmate Shawn Sanders. We both graduated from in 1993 (31 years ago).

Thank you to the faculty and staff for a fantastic night...also thanks to the student leaders who: gave us campus tours of the new D and E wings of the campus, represented their clubs, and celebrated the holidays with a full orchestra performance of Christmas songs.

Making VIDEOS!
I have helped so many people! Over the years that I have been in video production and content creation, it has been such a true blessing to build such amazing friendships. First off, thank you to everyone, clients, crew members, advertisers, content creators, actors, cinematographers, and Youtube collaborators who have helped me along the way.

Yes, I have been making videos since 2000, my first time editing video was in 1993, my senior year in high school... and since then I have been inspired by great teachers and professors - all of them encouraging me to keep creating films and telling fun action adventure stories.

If you have been inspired, as I was, by great teachers, coaches, and mentors, do me a favor and shout them out in the comments below.

April 1st always brings a lot of memories. The joy and laughter, and so many great family stories. Today I celebrate my Dad's birthday and my Grandmother's birthday. Yes, no joke both mother and son were born on April 1st!

My Dad, who passed in 2017, always had great stories, and a GREAT sense of humor that definitely lived up to the "April Fools" title of this day. My Grandma lived a long life and passed just last year, with a large celebration service and a big family get together. I honor their memory today by doing a little yard work like my dad, and spreading a little love like my grandma.

Here is to making you proud Dad, and celebrating my amazing grandma.
In God's care.
