Video Games

Oddly enough I am not the video game freak at my house. I love them and am fond of classic NES and SNES JRPG games. However video games are more often played by my wife and kids. I play them and enjoy the time I spend on them with my family, but the games I love to play suck to much of my life away and so I dont play them often.

TRPG

I started playing pen and paper role playing games as a young man. I have many a fond memory with my brothers sitting around the dinner table late into the night playing a character of my own creation. I love playing the Palladium Games System. This is the one that started it all for me. From Palladium, Rifts, TMNT, After the Bomb, Phase World, Heros Unlimited and more I love this game system and the creativity that you can express in its rule system. I have also played Dungeons and Dragons , and Pathfinder. As well as a few less popular game systems. I also have started to teach my own children how to play pen and paper RPG games. One of my children struggles with reading and it was an easy way to get them to read and do math all while having fun.

Church

My Religion is part of my everyday life. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Because God is important to me and he has been my whole life I decided to serve a proselyting mission. I was assigned to serve the people of Guatemala and have a love for the beauty of that country and those people. I also have plans in the future once my children are grown to serve another mission together with my wife. I also speak with my children about my mission and the role that it played in shaping my future.

Family
Family

Family has a special place in my heart. I am a Father of 5 children, the husband of a wonderful wife, the son of amazing parents. My family has helped shape me into the man I have become. The teachings of loving parents who took time encourage my love of computers. Who dedicated hours of time to my band and choir concerts, who taught me how to work on cars and on a home. Who taught me to be a father. My wife whose patients and love for our family humbles me and makes me wish to be a better man. Who encourages my dreams and works towards them together with me. My children who without realizing it have taught me that the most important title that I will ever hold is Father. I love them and will place them before other things.

Reading

Now I am an avid reader and will read just about anything. I love high fantasy and epic fantasy novels and will spend up to several hours a week reading. In my home, the Library is stock full of books for all ages. More often than not, you will find me sitting quietly reading a book. My favorite books are all hardbound as paperback books seem to wear out too quickly. I much prefer hardbound books and leather-bound books to paperbound as then I can read them over and over again. The invention of ebooks is something I love. It allows me to amass a collection of books that don't get dusty or wear out. Of course, nothing beats being able to carry around my favorite 50 or so books everywhere I go.
