So, did I mention how great it is to be a dad? This past week was officially Miles' birthday week and we had a blast. While Hayden has surely been getting a lot of attention as of late, this past week brought some very special time for Miles and I to hang out and have some fun. We started off with an outing to the local Six Flags for some rollercoasters and a dolphin show, followed by the obligatory pizza party with the family, including my father, Winston, my stepmother Jan and my brother Ryan. Then, on Saturday, we hit the Giants-Yankees game at AT&T Park.. And believe it or not, the Giants actually won! Miles and I even made it onto the jumbotron!
I was also lucky enough to get some real work done for a favorite cause of mine, 'Share Our Strength', and emcee their 'Taste of the Nation' event. We raised over $90,000 to help end hunger in Bay Area and had some amazing food and wine to boot. I'd like to thank my friend and Traci Des Jardins for allowing me to be a part of such an amazing evening with such a talented group of chefs.

(Page 1)2. I've been enjoying this blog as well as your website, but for the life of me I can't find where on the website I can sign up for the newsletter! I've looked through every link, or at least think I have. Help!
Glad you and Miles had a great time together!

4. What a sweet birthday story.....I have looked at a lot of your pictures lately and you really look so much like your grandfather Louis. He was
my great uncle and though I've never met you, I did know him, Aunt Emily, your Mom and Brenda. In fact, my mom had a picture of Uncle Louis when he was younger and you two really look a lot alike...
Congratulations on having such a successful career, and a sweet, sweet family.
