About Me

There is so much to say, but you still want to leave people guessing! The first thing I should say is that I love God and he still continues to bless me even though am not even close to perfect! I love to serve at my church, Shoreline Christian Center, in The Life ministry. The Life is what we call the soon to be married ministry! At least, that is what we hope for someday. Of course, that isn't what the ministry is about. It is about getting closer to God and making awesome Christian friends. I serve in The Connection (our Sunday school on Sunday mornings). It is so much fun and I am so blessed to be serving with such an amazing group of leaders! God is good!I was born and raised in Austin, Texas. I love it here! I was born a Longhorn if you haven't guessed by now. Hook'em! Anyway, I love Austin because there is so much to do here. I love nature and the hill country around here is great! I love music and Austin is the music capitol of the world. I play sports year round. I play football and softball. I relax by enjoying nature and playing sports. When I am playing ball I don't think about the things that are stressing me! It is my getaway. It is also so relaxing being around all the wonderful things God created. I love water (any kind), sunsets, a full moon (especially shining off the water), and hiking through the woods. God certainly didn't create the concrete jungles that are constantly going up around here. I love the ocean and lighthouses. I love dolphins. They are my favorite animal. You can see these types of things in my apartment. The concrete jungles being built up over everything is rather sad! I like to hang out with all my wonderful friends and do whatever it is we are doing at the time!My family is so awesome! It is really large and extended. I have 2 brothers, 2 sisters, 2 half-brothers, 1 half-sister (which I just recently met for the 1st time), 2 step-brothers, and a step-sister. I have around 20 nephews and nieces, 10 great nieces and nephews, a Godson (Paul Michael) and his little brother Nate. PM and Nate are like nephews. They call me Uncle Dan anyway. I love kids and I have been so blessed with many nephews and nieces. I look forward to the day that I have my own and get to hold them in my arms for the 1st time! What an awesome blessing that will be! My Mom has always been so loving! I have learned what love is all about from my Mom. She loves her family so much and she is absolutely amazing! My brother's names are Mark and Bo. My sister's names are Brenda and Susan. The rest of the names are too much to get into at this time. I don't have all day! I love my family! Did I say that already? Oh well, it is true.I work at the Governor's Office and I have been here for almost 5 years. I love working here. It is always so busy and I have met some great people over the years. I am a Systems Analyst (fancy way of saying I keep the computers running). I get to meet new people all the time because I set up all the new users. I love meeting new people and getting to know them.There is so much more, but I think I will leave the rest for later! God bless!..

My Interests

Sports: I love to play football, softball, volleyball, basketball and others. I love to watch the Longhorns, Cowboys, Spurs, Astros, and Express. I also like to watch all other Texas teams (except maybe the Texans because they are so bad right now!). Other interests include reading, computer, X box, nature, playing pool, spending time with friends, and most of all just growing closer to God.

I'd like to meet:

God, Jesus, and Job (he lost so much but still kept his faith and was blessed for it), my grandparents (never really knew any of them. Most of them died before I was old enough to know them). Now for living people, I would like to meet Max Lucado, Emmitt Smith, Nolan Ryan, and David Robinson. David Robinson is an awesome Christian and Pastors in a large church in San Antonio. He is also an ex-NBA player. I respect what he has done for Christ and in his community.

Music:

I like almost any type of music except rap (unless it is Will Smith) and Ozzie Ozbourne type music (people who bite the heads off of bats weird me out). He is a prime example of what drugs will do to ya! Let your kids watch him when you are trying to teach them about drugs! :) I love Christian music, country (old and new), oldies music, 80's (so much fun), Rock, some classical (movie soundtracks usually), and others.Music that stinks: Big and Rich (they are horrible), Ozzie Ozzbourne (psycho), and Rap (most of it is vulgar and crude).

Movies:

I love movies of all kinds. Nobody would ever guess this, but STAR WARS, The Passion of the Christ, Gladiator, Christmas Vacation, Ever After, Grumpy Old Men movies, Conan the Barbarian, Lethal Weapon series, Aladdin, The Lion King, Star Trek 2 and 5, Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Last of the Mohicans, Spiderman movies, Batman movies. Looking forward to the Chronicles of Narnia.Worst movies: The War of the Worlds (what a boring ending. Made sense, but very anti-climactic. Million Dollar Baby as well (so depressing). Will add more as I think of them, but I thought I would put the worst on here as well!

Television:

Don't watch much TV. Never home, but when I am it consists of ESPN and FSNSW or any other sports channel. I also enjoy the Stargate and Stargate Atlantis. Sometimes I watch The War at Home (very warped family). More to come....

Books:

The Bible, all Star Wars books (I know, another big surprise!), The Left Behind series (really makes Revelations more understandable), The Power of Understanding Prayer, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Piers Anthony books, Wild at Heart, and others. Does the sports page count? Just kidding!

Heroes:

God, Jesus, my Mom, my step Dad for being the Dad he didn't have to be, pastors at Shoreline for being so real (Earl especially, you are an inspiration my friend) Emmitt Smith, David Robinson, Nolan Ryan and Super Dan!
