Where the Hell Have We Been

I haven’t forgotten about you guys. Unfortunately some ass “person” broke into our house and stole my most awesome camera, all of my electronics and my kids toys so I’ve been a bit pre-occupied. Ab and I managed to make a quick trip to Vegas for my birthday (would you expect anything less from us?). We didn’t gamble much, but managed to get pretty banged up riding ATV 4,800 feet up the side of a mountain in the snow… Pictures are coming soon… In our normal tradition we went straight from the mountain into a restaurant completely covered in mud because damnit that’s how awesome we are :) .  I’ll post about it tomorrow. Missed ya’ll!

Cold, Covered in Paint, And Crawling Through Mud… Now That’s A Date!

It pretty much goes without saying that our idea of a fun date doesn’t exactly line up with your typical internet dating site “What’s Your Idea of a Fun Date” response. Therefore, it shouldn’t shock you that we were completely amped about spending 5 hours in 40 degree weather, covered in mud & paint, crawling through the woods in Roanoke, TX at DFW Adventure Park.

This place is in the middle of

Paintball Adventure Course

nowhere (we passed a house with a cow in the front yard) and is huge. They have about 20 paint ball courses, a Moto Cross course, and zip lining. It’s not your typical throw up a few inflatables or barriers and call it a day type of place. Many of the courses involve water, bridges, forest, and buildings.

We had a blast! The funniest part of the entire day was that we decided to go eat at a restaurant immediately after paintball with no wardrobe change or shower. That was very amusing to say the least :) .

Enjoy the videos! In order: (1)Interviews — just Ab and I discussing our mad paintball skills. (2) The Action — paint ball action video (3) The Wardrobe Change — J might have gotten a little cold punked out and went and bought some camo… Not saying it’s true but there’s this ugly rumor floating around.

Where’d He Get That Mouth?

Saying my oldest son is not modest would be the equivalent of saying Mt.Everest is a little hill… I have no idea where he got this over inflated sense of self.

What?

Quit snickering damn it!

I decided to stay and watch him at MMA (what, you don’t let your kids cage fight?) a couple of weeks ago and experienced a real treat. My dear son is telling this guy who happens to be much more experienced than him how he is going to make him tap out..

Well, needless to say that is not what transpired. It was so funny I had to break out the phone video recorder.

I asked my son if he learned he anything to which he responded “I should have worn different shorts…”

Blank stare.

Rock on Khalil. Rock on.

A Must Have

GoPro Wide Angle Helmet Cam

We found absolutely the best thing ever! Well, maybe not ever, but definitely a must have for us. There is one word for this gear — sweet! If I had to describe it in two words they would be f’ing sweet!

How can you not love this when it:

  • records 2.5 hours on a single charge
  • shoots HD video hands free (for when you are barreling toward your death)
  • water proof to 60 meters (180 feet)
  • shoots in light
  • is sturdy enough to avoid bumps and bruises when you’re kicking a**

Oh yeah we have to have it! Can’t live one more day without it.

It is available from the Official Go Pro Store for $299.

Obviously, Ab has to wear this little number  (thanks babe) since this is clearly not  compatible with my sexy lol. I can’t wait to get it and show you guys what we see.

Hear is some sample video from the cam. You can’t tell us  this isn’t hot (well you could, but we won’t listen).

Identify Much?

Okay this is funny. We soooo identify with Blair’s experience in this video. Hell we should be in this video! Check out the lady that snaps the quick photo. We are so laughing.
