Hi folks! We've been slacking on updates lately... sorry. Anyway, here's a recap of this weekend:
Saturday, Joellen shot her first wedding for our friends Justin and Austie (as an asside, Justin and I have the same birthday). Anyway, she got to the ballroom at 10:00 AM and stayed there until 9:00 PM so needless to say, she was pretty wiped out by the end. The shoot went well, though and despite a few technical difficulties, she ended up with over 1,500 images that now she gets to sort through :) She had a great time and I'm sure Justin and Austie will love the results. Incidently, Joellen also looked stunning in that dress! I was on baby duty all day, but thankfully Asher was on his best behavior! Joellen insists he's never that good for her...
Sunday, we went to my folks house for Mother's Day and had a great time with the family. Although Asher was a bit fussy (relative to Saturday) Grandpa was able to calm him down, bringing him ever so close to that blessed state of slumber time and time again only to have him startle himself awake for one reason or another.We've had our hands full lately and haven't been able to make it out to Mom & Dad's in a while so it was nice to be able to spend the afternoon with them.I've got a new schedule at work which I'm not too terribly excited about... I'll be closing 2 days a week (boo!) Oh well. Hopefully, we'll be able to grow the graphic design business to the point of sustainability and kiss AT&T sayonara!
Ok that's it from my corner for now. More news as it unfolds...

Congratulations on your first wedding, Jo! I remember all to vividly the "going through the pictures" part and I only had to watch Jason do it. Good luck to you!
Asher is a doll! I can't wait to meet him.
Mark, in your post you sounded like you've given up on the idea of working for the church. Did you hear back from them yet?
Love you guys!

I haven't given up on the church, but I also haven't heard back... The tough thing, though is that even if I get the job at the church it will only provide about half the income we need (like AT&T is now) and we'll continue to have to rely on Goldstreet and Brasfort along with Jo's photography to make up the difference. I would love not to have to work 2 jobs :)
