2009 Leonia Summer Craft Fair and Classic Car Show

I got chance to meet new faces and also some great people I meet the last time I came to the Leonia show. Didn’t do that great this time around but still have to be thankful for those that did support my brand. They also had a car show, which I got to see some wicked cars.

You can see more pictures here.

The concert on Saturday was totally awesome, everyone that performed did extremely well. And the MC was great he had the audience entertained and not bored. There were a few highlights of the concert but I think Little Samuel stole the show. If you had a camera or camera phone you had it on him during his drum solo. And I love the way his father is bringing him up he keeps his son grounded and Samuel just goes about his drumming  in such humble way because this kid is a star in my opinion. Check the video out to see what I’m talking about and did I mention he is only 6 years old. I will also post a video of me dancing soon.

Father,s Day was also awesome for me and Happy belated father’s day to all the father out there. My wife and I went to my mother’s home for dinner and they had a special treat for me because wasn’t only father’s day for me but the eve of my birthday, so it was father’s day slash early birthday celebration.  It was just great spending time with my family but the only sad part is that my daughter is away with her grand parents and I miss her terribly. On my birthday I got into work check my email and my text messages, it was so awesome to see the amount of emails, text and facebook birthday wishes I got from my friends, family and people I didn’t even know. That was beyond special because I thought I had a lot on Sunday for father’s day but it was at least 10 times the amount on my birthday. So thank you guys so much you made it very special. Also my boss and very good friend Kumar took me out for lunch.

In regards to the new gear I will be releacing them in the next few days at the online store starting tomorrow, hope you enjoy!

Be blessed,

I will be dancing this weekend at the youth concert at my church, it will be awesome (THE BAND IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!) and it won’t be your regular church concert. And if you remember me posting a video of little Samuel on the drums, he will be performing too. So it would be great for you to come out and be apart.

I also have a table there so stop by, pick up some SKILLA gear and that would also give me a chance to hang with some of you guys.

This pass weekend was pretty good and memorial day was totally awesome. Got a chance to play some soccer and basketball with my friends from about 10:30 am to about 3:00pm, yeah that’s a long time but it was some much fun. I also realized how out of shape I am, so I have to work on that….lol. This week end should be pretty good and also very busy because my line is going to be featured in a fashion show on Saturday 5/30/09, which I’m pretty excited about. So if you are near the White Plains, NY area it would be awesome if you could stop by. See flyer below for more details.

CRAFT SHOW

Heading out to Connecticut tomorrow for Bethel Blooms Craft Fair at Municipal Center (front lawn).

I’m pretty excited about going to Connecticut again.

EASTER WEEKEND

My Easter weekend was awesome got a chance to sit back and reflect on the reason for the season. Also a group of guys from my church and I did a mime to Lord’s Supper the Sunday night, which came out just awesome. I was kind of worried if it was clear enough because I knew a few people in the audience didn’t really understand miming but they got it…..sweet! See the pics below!
