So, as I mentioned before, I’m currently out in Sacramento for our annual District Council.  Truth is, it’s mostly a bunch of business meeting…not that exciting.  On top of that, the truth is, the Assemblies is kinda a new world to Rachel and I, a new culture, so we don’t always feel like we fit […]

Photo Shoot In The Street

Back when all our family was here for Thanksgiving, Joel needed to take some portrait shots for his art/photography class.  He wanted to take pics of Caleb, but was encouraged to not take the "typical" cute baby photos.  Instead he wanted to get Caleb out of his element, where he wouldn’t be comfortable.  Bonus if […]

Great Design

So I’ve developed a pretty big value for high quality graphic design.  Didn’t used to have it.  I think it came from my time at Revolution, where everything that’s put out looks really good.  It was a high value there.  And I think it rubbed off on me.  But I’m definitely not an expert on […]
