It's Christmas and everyone is excited! Once we got through our usual gift exchange, we head to the inlaws for the second half of the festivities. Family, food, fun, and the joy of giving! That's what Christmas is all about! youtu.be/1gakWvcDGgU
19 years ago, I posted my very first vlog, and I’m still here, camera in hand, sharing life one day at a time. Today I reflect on how vlogging has evolved, why the new style of vlogging feels a lot like the old, and why I still I document my daily life. youtu.be/ndaYI8o-7_c
Imagine leaving X because of how toxic it was, only to come to Bluesky and be toxic.
People on Bluesky complain that all they see on X is violent right-winged rhetoric.
People on X complain that all they see on Bluesky is violent left-winged rhetoric.
Stop being like them. Be better than them.
Ever have one of those Mondays where everything hits at once? I start with tackling the biggest grocery haul in ages, FaceTiming Bryce for a college catch-up, and my new DJI Pocket 3 Creator Combo gets delivered right before a live stream. #DailyVlog youtu.be/AECPoP62n8o
NEW VLOG: Perfect Sunday recovery after an epic Lincoln Park night! Today was all about solo vibes: house to myself, some kitchen experiments (Trader Joe’s fried rice + eggs = chef’s kiss), and a 3-hour New World stream on Twitch. #DailyVlog youtu.be/wyBT4ecP6wc
After 20 years of being a Linkin Park fan, I finally got to see them live in Phoenix and it was everything I hoped for and more. From the adrenaline of the first song to the raw emotion in the crowd, this was way more than just a concert. #DailyVlog youtu.be/aFME7piQbyo
Can I crush 180g of protein in just a 7-hour eating window while intermittent fasting? Today I track every meal; from rotisserie chicken to a monster burrito bowl, and see if I can hit my macro goals in a short window of time. #DailyVlog youtu.be/mvY2wE9wO0c
Back on DoorDash after more than a year away! Plus, testing out the Canon G7X vs. Pocket 3, talking fasting, and keeping it real about gig work in 2024. #DailyVlog youtu.be/R5C_dXaLt6k
Bryce called me from the Apple store today, needing help with his new laptop charger, and suddenly it hit me: this is what staying connected looks like when your kid’s two hours away at college. #DailyVlog youtu.be/tBDYbqI2wGc
Bryce is officially heading back to NAU, and watching him take charge of his own journey just hits different. No dramatic goodbyes, just a proud dad moment seeing my son handle college life with confidence and independence. #DailyVlog youtu.be/HMOhtDL9pBs
We found Bryce’s “prize” from the arcade: an RC helicopter that cost him 6400 points, and let’s just say, it’s the WORST helicopter ever made. 😂 Watch as I attempt to fly this thing (spoiler: it’s basically impossible) #DailyVlog youtu.be/6b6F0BKOoAo
🏈 House divided! One kid repping NAU, the other all-in for ASU; game day chaos, family laughs, and some serious bragging rights are on the line. Plus other Saturday shenanigans. Watch the madness unfold! #DailyVlog

Sometimes the simplest days turn into the best stories! Today I left work early to catch a delivery that needed a signature, missed the driver by literally 30 seconds, and ended up chasing him down to his next stop. #DailyVlog youtu.be/OkxJlrIX4_k
Ever wondered what happens when you trust AI with your YouTube channel analytics? Grab a coffee and join me as I put an AI to the test; letting it analyze my data and suggest channels I should learn from. Spoiler: it totally missed the mark. #DailyVlog youtu.be/Ww5QvqP-K5c
We have a trip planned in a couple of months that require us to have a passport. We've never had a one before, never needed one. So this is our first time going through the process. Plus, Sierra updates us on her second day at ASU. #DailyVlog youtu.be/BgWj4yK5SR0
I thought my camera upgrade plan was solid: wait for the DJI Action 6 Pro, skip the Action 5, and keep things simple. But after watching a review of the insta360 Go Ultra, I’m rethinking everything. #DailyVlog youtu.be/Ich-TkfIjnw
My wife challenged me to a phone-free Walmart visit; no scrolling, no checking messages, just shopping and awkward silence. Then we had our first FaceTime call w/ Bryce since he left for college, hearing how his first week in the dorms has been. #DailyVlog youtu.be/-XDqurXC07M
Saturday chores hit different when you’re cleaning out your son’s room for the first time since he left for college. Today’s mission: Bryce’s room, getting its first deep clean since we moved in five years ago. #DailyVlog youtu.be/ofbmHIiNUhs
Week one of college is officially underway and both kids are already making the most of their new adventures! Sierra’s off exploring Tempe, Bryce is making friends, setting up his dorm, and loving every minute of his newfound freedom. #DailyVlog youtu.be/3VT0-Z3d9Ek
Our daughter Sierra officially became a Sun Devil today! Watching her take this next step at @ASU has me feeling all the emotions, so proud of the path she’s chosen and the amazing person she’s become. #DailyVlog youtu.be/00Y2zGRnSYk
Worked from home today, and it felt great! I forgot how much I enjoy it and how productive I am. We checked in with Bryce about his first night alone in his dorm; he’s already making friends. I went for an evening walk to discuss our next steps. #DailyVlog youtu.be/Dz8rh6vut_4
Today’s the day we’ve been building up to—Bryce is officially moving out and beginning his college adventure at NAU! We loaded up the cars and hit the road for Flagstaff, nerves and excitement riding shotgun. #DailyVlog youtu.be/PnLQ4rxxUyw
Tiffany whipped up some chicken shawarma Mediterranean bowls for Bryce’s official last meal at home before college. Then we went into what his actual "last meal" would be. His response is exactly what you would expect from an 18 year old😂 #DailyVlog youtu.be/Y1ckCvZ643I
It’s Bryce’s big sendoff! We fired up the grill, stacked up burgers, and had one last pool day before he heads out on his next adventure. The whole crew was in: swimming, laughing, and soaking up every minute of summer together. #DailyVlog youtu.be/bNH0kPCc7jA
Bryce packs for his big move in 3 days, sorting years of memories. My mom's reminder hit home: I've always leaped forward, and now he's doing the same. His new chapter shapes our family; embracing the change! #DailyVlog youtu.be/-okSnZ8aQoo
Friday vibes are intense as we count down to Bryce's college move! The week flew by, but last days dragged. Mind-body link: physical care boosts mental strength. Bryce's LAST workday: shares plans, excitement, nerves & job future. #dailyVlog youtu.be/DvJJqpFNaKU
Today’s vlog: Leveling up my kitchen & mindset! 💪 Work BTS: Hustling in the cooler, rotating stock, prepping orders. My workout shift from dread to non-negotiable. Then, meal prepping a chuck roast for 100g+ protein for gains on a budget! #DailyVlog youtu.be/_kgbzDF3jYk
It’s been SEVEN YEARS since Bryce and I last battled it out in a @tacobell taco eating contest. He was just a kid back then, but now he’s grown up and ready for Round 3! #DailyVlog #TacoTuesday youtu.be/4YkrPprf1OA
I want to use vlogging as an excuse to visit places, try new things, and even shop. I'm doing it for myself, but documenting it will create a more engaging vlog. I've always encouraged others to try new things, time I follow my own advice. #DailyVlog youtu.be/zbfhQ4ZbDV0
It's Sunday, and I'm busy. Starting with a hot tub live stream, house chores, then another live stream building a LEGO set in my cozy corner. Tiffany and I then run errands and surprise Bryce at work for dinner. #DailyVlog youtu.be/vFDc3xQ0UW4
