Expo Show

By the way, the Wedding Expo show went great. I recieved a wonderful response and the day went by super-fast. Here's a couple of Erin's snapshots of the booth space. It was longer than we anticipated but we didn't complain.

Back to the farm

I met up with Richard and Marshall and Marsh's dad Jim in Arkansas over the weekend. It's still pretty much like it was last year. Take a look. Anyway, it was awesome and it was great to see my boys. Marsh has two dogs, Jay-dog and Chilli-dog and we saw about 20 turkey 9 deer and 2 armadillos. So….that’s it in a nutshell for now.
Oh wait, there’s more, on Sunday we went to a Cowboy Church. That’s what the sign said and everything. They’re building a new building with an arena in it and they were talking about how one of their big expenses was the dirt but that it was the “best dirt in Arkansas!” and was well worth it. Being the non-rodeo kinda fella that I am I just sat their trying to figure the logic of an arena (I was picturing the Metrodome) and fancy dirt (I was thinking they were needing it for parking lot). Anyway, the people were extremely warm and friendly and I thought it was a cool church.
Uh…the end.


Do you see Orion?

Welcome Miss Coco Limerick

Well here she is, Miss Coco Limerick, I think she's gonna go by the name Coco Chanel. She just doesn't look much like a Limmie or a Rick to me. Everybody's happy except our cats but they are not as upset as we thought they would be. I think they'll all be buddies soon.

Christmas Magic

Nothing is as magical as the first moment on Christmas morning when the kids come down the hall to see the loot before you get a chance to set your camera the way you like it. It's even more magical when your son likes to point with his middle finger.
We had Christmas at home this year and it was really nice being just the four of us Chirstmas morning. Then we headed to my folks and had some pickled herring like everyone else does and finished with a hayride. It was cool, there were big huge snowflakes falling but none of them stuck.

Pre-Holiday Update

OK, so these are not our dogs but we are thinking about getting one so I thought I'd put this up here for some reason. These are the Hudkins pups. The wedding last Saturday went great, Paul and Adam did a great job picking up my slack, here's a shot of Adam's that's at the same moment as Paul's. Also, here's a shot of Erin that is a representation of a specific Rolling Stones song, can you guess which one?

Also, we saw Santa and his reindeer and he wanted to know if Alec was a prince or something with his cape...he said, "No, I'm Batman," to which St. Nick replies, "Oh, well Batman is a prince too isn't he? Don't they call him the Prince of Darkness?" And I didn't want to tell the jolly old soul but no, Batman isn't the Prince of Darkness, that'd be Satan. Batman is the "Dark Knight". You'd think after all these years he'd know something like that. He needs to get that figured out quick.

Of course maybe he was commenting on Alec's behavior or something. Hmmm.....

December with one leg

Well, I guess life goes on when you only have one leg to use afterall. We had a "whole mess' a" hyper little girls over for the slumber party and I'll be honest, Hanna Montana is getting just a little overplayed for my taste in this house. I did a shoot for Positronic's Christmas party that was 50's themed and I didn't crash or anything. We went to Ohio for Thanksgiving and they have these amazing trees that they train to only drop leaves on decks and never in the grass. This one is still learning. The cats are busy frantically doing nothing....well, nothing but eating and pooping and sleeping, but soon they'll be passing ribbons and bows through their nifty little digestive system and it's always kind of funny to see a cat with multiple tails. That's all for now, but I've got some other stuff to show you later...oooooo cliff-hanger ending!!
