Hey all...mcconaughey here...letting you know that j.k. livin recording artist Mishka has a new album out digitally, as of today (10/20/09).  GUY WITH A GUITAR is an album I worked on with Mishka that takes you on an acoustic journey through songs from ABOVE THE BONES & ONE TREE with 2 new tracks.

 The feel of the album is Mishka sittin on a stool with his guitar on a beautiful night, playing an amphitheater.  The spotlight is on him and being in the audience, you might be sitting among thousands BUT you know that Mishka is only singin and playin to you. 

 It’s available on iTunes right now so check it out, let me know what you think and where the music takes you. Now times and all time, just keep livin, mcconaughey

Hey all, mcconaughey here, checkin in on the cyber world and letting you know what’s happening in my life.  It’s been a great summer with some big news, a little travelin, and a lot coming up…

-Above and beyond all other news, the most exciting is my lady Camila and I got another baby on the way…not sure if it’s a boy or girl but we have our instincts…what are you thinking?  

-Levi is doing terrific waiting for his little bro or sis…we had to super child proof the new house because he’s motoring around like Usian Bolt and eatin like Kobayashi, Camila and I can barely keep up.  We call him the fruit bandit ‘cause if there’s fruit out, he’s on it, takin it and eatin it.  He’s gettin bigger, more fun, smarter and craftier by the day.

-Headed over to France in July to show Lance some support in the Tour…stages 18-21...(put a couple pictures in the gallery).  He was psyched we came, it was a travelin circus and I saw some gorgeous areas of France I hadn’t before.  I got to ride in the team car with Johan Bruyneel which was probably the most eye opening experience of the trip – the riders are in ridiculous shape but the team car drivers are flying through the streets, talkin on the radio’s in different languages, looking at the monitor on the dashboard, all while dodging pedestrians and riders…it was insane. 

-In the realm of j.k. livin…we got a myspace page for the j.k. livin foundation so check it out and friend us at www.myspace.com/jklivin.  j.k. livin also got a twitter page (www.twitter.com/jklivin) – my office updates it all the time about the world of j.k. livin and me…I am not quite ready to have my own but they will let you know what I’m up too…  The j.k livin store (www.jklivinstore.com) is also rockin’ some cool new product so check it out and remember a dime of every dollar goes to the foundation.

-Mishka is also doing well…we just digitally released his album ABOVE THE BONES worldwide so go download it if you haven’t already.  We also have a NEW ALBUM RELEASE comin your way…an acoustic album by Mishka called GUY WITH A GUITAR.  I have been working on it for the last couple weeks and it'll be coming your way next month ….it’s got some old tunes, new tunes and makes you feel like he is sittin on a stage with a spotlight and guitar playing to 10,000 people but really just singing to you...I hope you enjoy it as much as I do…

-UT football lookin strong this year with a National Championship in our grasp…Rankings have us listed at two and Colt McCoy should have an awesome season…If this team plays as one and is on a mission to win it all one game at a time, we got a chance..looking forward to going down to Austin to see some games…..Hook’em

That’s all I got for now and remember, in good times and bad times, now times and all time, just keep livin, mcconaughey

Levi Alves McConaughey

FIRST NAME: "levi"

"Levi" was another name for the apostle "Matthew" in the bible....they were, in fact, two names for the same person..our son was born at 6:22 pm, and this particular "time" represents my favorite verse in the book of Matthew in the bible; "if thy eye be single, thy whole body will be full of light."

MIDDLE NAME: "alves"

Camila's last name is "Alves".. We wanted to incorporate her family name, so we decided to make our child's middle name "Alves"....

We welcome "Levi Alves McConaughey" into this wonderful life and look forward to livin it with him, in the mean time and all times, just keep livin, matthew david mcconaughey and camila maria saraiva de araujo alves.
