Greg Laurie's message!
I just thought this was pretty powerful. It is so sad to know that life is so short. My prayers and thoughts are with the Laurie Family. If you think about it send up some prayers for this amazing family! I love the honesty in this video and I pray that if you watch this it touches you.
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL!

Life has been insane, so I apologize for not writing in a while. I have been moving, getting situated, preparing for my Mom's wedding(pictured above) and trying to reconnect with as many people as possible. So please forgive me for not being the best blogger in the world.
As for an update? Well I am still working at CaseCentral and really enjoying it. I am learning a ton and I am feeling like I finally know why the Lord has me there. Its a cool feeling to know that you are right where God wants you. It has been an experience that has surpassed my expectations. Working from home is tough, simply because I am such a social person that not having anyone around has been a little more lonely than I expected. However, the sweet surprise is that I am actually pretty disciplined in getting my work done effectively and efficiently. Pretty surprised by that.
As for my health? I have decided to start a medical weight loss program called Lindora. So far it has been one of the toughest things I have ever done, but I am pretty certain that finally I will be able to lose my weight and keep it off. I am very dedicated to this(because it was so dang expensive) and really feeling like this is what I needed to get healthier. I am hoping that losing weight will somehow be the miracle I need to get healthy. Please if you think about it pray for me. The program is 10 weeks of hard core dieting and ketosis and then a maintenance program. For more info go to www.lindora.com . I recommend this program to anyone.
Lastly, since my birthday just passed I have this overwhelming feeling like this is my year. I feel like I am going to change, grow and become some one that I will not notice next year at this time. I am so excited. I am so willing to be dedicated to making this a year of change! My friend Meeshee Scherrei always has a word for every year and my word this year is change. Life giving change. I cant wait. It is going to be awesome. From my health to my professional life to even my love life; this is the year that will be defining.
I also added a link to a video that I love. It is Randy Pausch. I posted it before but I wanted to post it again in memory of this man's life. Randy passed away on July 25th and I think that this is one of the videos that will forever be a part of my life change this year. If you have time please watch this and Enjoy!

I am moving back to Orange County!

As I sit here and tell you all about moving back, I have to say that I am overwhelmed. I cannot believe that it has been over a year and beyond that, I cannot believe how much the Lord has blessed this journey.
This experience has been one that has taught me more and has shaped my life more than anything ever has. I never thought I would look back at this experience and be where I am today. Today I can honestly say that I am a better man then I was a year ago.
This journey has added characters to my life that would have never been there if it were not for stepping out in faith. This faith adventure has given me the ability to say that I am stronger and much more on my own two feet then ever before.
The blessings in my life are abundant. They come in form of new friends, a great new job, new experiences and I would say the experience of knowing that all my old friends have been amazing every step of the way. The support, prayers and visits have been beyond blessings. So for all new friends, old friends and family, thank you! Thank you for making this journey possible, unbelievable and beyond perfect.
Now for the details. I will be moving back on May 10Th, still working for CaseCentral and will be living in Costa Mesa. I still have renters in my Greenfield condo, so I will be moving back there once they are out. I am so excited to go home, but also sad to leave the people here in San Fran.
Well, there you go! Cant wait to share my experiences more in depth later.
Love you all!

My Beautiful Niece Sophia Bella is BORN!





Before being an Uncle I never thought in a million years that i could love a person so deeply as I do my nieces and nephews. The shocking part actually is how quickly you fall, and fall hard. I have not even met Sophia and already am mad about her.
She was born 7 pounds 12 oz. and so far is an easy and quiet baby. She looks exactly like Lani as a baby. By the way, Lani is doing great after the c section. I think it was easier the second time on her. The coolest part is that big brother,Noah loves his new baby sister.
Whenever you think of them feel free to send up a prayer.
Love you all,
Uncle Mark

So I believe that I have had the unique and amazing privilege to eat at some of the most exquisite restaurants in the world. Well, yesterday I got to eat the most amazing meal I think I have ever had. I know that I normally love hyperbole, but honestly this meal was amazing!!!!!!!!!
I started the meal with an amazing salad. The salad was made with a homemade creamy mozzarella cheese, tiny heirloom tomatoes, with avocado, and these tiny bread crumbs and then finished off with red onion and a light balsamic vinaigrette. The flavors were insane!
Next i had a their famous fillet Mignon on the bone, zucchini made with Japanese bread crumbs and a double baked potato with a marscapone cheese and just a little drizzle of sour cream. Just so you know when I asked for medium well on the steak, the waitress let me know that the chef would not do that. The chef knows exactly how it should be made. I was a bit nervous since I always need to have everything exactly how I like it. My friends, this was te most insane steak I have ever had! Honestly, IT WAS PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!
Lastly, for dessert we had a very simple chocolate mousse that was stuffed in tiny waffle cones. It was decadent, simple and had a perfect flavor!
Anyone who comes and visits me will go to this stellar and perfect restaurant. The atmosphere feels a little cheesy, but the food, the service and the experience is one that I have never had! This is my favorite meal ever! It was amazing! Go to their website and check it out.
