We Have a New Baby Girl!

Here's Mommy with new little girl! Born on 9/29/11 at 9:18 p.m. Weighing in at 6 lbs. 0 oz. She's just as beautiful as her mom. Her name is Kaylee Mae Dunbar. Welcome home Kaylee!

Ben's Trip to Chicago

Here's the hotel I'm staying at. It's called the Swissotel and it's right on the banks of the Chicago River where it meets Lake Michigan. Pretty cool place.

It was a busy evening on the Chicago River.
See I'm really here!
This is the view from my window. You can see a marina in the background with lots of sailboats and other yachts.
I'm staying on the 26th floor. To the left is Navy Pier and Lake Michigan.

Chicago is an interesting city to be sure. Check out the multilevel street below. Three city blocks are stacked on top of each other. Then the building on the left is a massive high rise. That's incredible.

Band Concert and BBQ!

We had neighbors, friends, and family over for a BBQ and concert. There was a great turn out and the music was great. Check out the video's recently added below...

Ben thanks everyone for coming and announces the numbers they will be playing.

Ben plays in two bands. This is the first one that played.


Andrea plays the piano and sings "Love Song" by Sara Bareilles with Ben on drums.

This is another band Ben plays with. They are called "Vitae."

This is Israel and his son, Diego, who comes often to the practices. Diego enjoys rocking out with the band.

Ben multi-tasks playing the drums and using the shaker at the same time.

They closed with "New Divide" by Linkin Park. It was awesome!

Our originals are marked with an asterisk.

New Flooring

When we moved into our home in West Jordan, I promised Andrea we could get rid of the nasty carpet in the dinning room and other areas. Well yesterday we replaced 400 square feet of it with beautiful hardwood flooring. Check out the pictures.

Notice all the prep work I had to do... Removing baseboards, ripping out carpet, padding, staples, linoleum, etc. Anyone feeling sorry for me yet?





Happiness is... having a happy wife!

Band Practice

Here are a couple of songs I've been practicing with my new band called Vitae. The recording quality is poor but you'll get the idea...
