This past weekend I had the huge privilege of camping with some awesome fellas from church.
We loaded up 3 kayaks and a canoe and paddled 14 miles down the Cape Fear River, stopping half way at Raven Rock State Park to spend the night…
Every once in a while it’s fun to take a picture out of context, and then guess what would belong in a caption bubble.
This seems like a good candidate.
You go first.
Steph’s parents generously took us to Busch Gardens this weekend.
Ray and I had a ton of fun trying on all the hats:
In no particular order, here’s the last batch of my favorite 2009 photos:
OK. Part 3 of the “2009 In Pictures” series.
This is July – September.
Which was the summer…
Which is when we lost our dang minds and started snapping pictures like it was the end of the world apparently drank some funky kool-aid and took WAY too many pictures.
So here’s your warning: There are like 20 pictures here.

It came up fast, but the time has come!
Tomorrow morning, at the crack of dawn, Stephanie and I will be running the Virginia Beach Rock ‘n Roll 1/2 Marathon!
I think we have enough 5-hour energy drinks to carry us are ready.
See you on the other side!
Alright folks.
After much sorting and deleting, here is our vacation through a lense.
A few of my favorite pics are below.
You can see more from Stone Mountain here, more from the Georgia Aquarium here, and more from the rest of our vacation here.
(PS – There are 28 pictures below, so please be patient if it takes [...]
Well, even though it lasted almost 2 weeks, our vacation has come and gone, and as expected, it flew by!
You can rest assured than an over-abundance of pictures will be posted over the next couple of weeks, but for today, here are a few tidbits from the past week in no particular order…
Vacation with a [...]
We took about a bazillion pictures last week on our little vacation, and I’m looking forward to going through them all with Stephanie and eventually sharing them with you.
I want her to help me pick the ‘family’ pictures we post here.
In the meantime, here are a few ‘artsy’ pictures I took during the first 24 [...]
Josiah hasn’t been terribly impressed.
But he’s behaving really well and we’re having a great time!
The 4th of July has always been a special day for Stephanie and I, because that’s the day we met!
A year ago we took the extended Independence Day weekend and went camping in Asheboro.
Steph was a solid 5 months pregnant at the time, and she was a trooper! We camped through rain and hail, woke [...]
