History in the making!

Wow! What an amazing day. Whether you voted for Obama or McCain, today was a momentous event! Isn’t it something to witness history in action? I wonder how many of you made the trek up to see it in person. I was a little bummed that Andy & I weren’t able to go, but I am a weather weenie (not to mention the crazy crowds to endure), so I think I am happy to have watched it on television. I may not be able to say I was there in person, but how many of you can say you watched it on a portable tv in your car? Yes…I’m a bit of a nerd, but I was going to be out & about for about 3 hours today & I wanted to make sure I saw it.

Well, on a different note, Andy & I just got back from Arizona. The Professional Photographers of America had its national convention last week & we had a blast! The big highlight of the convention was Anne Geddes speaking. Believe it or not, Andy & I skipped it! We were just so exhausted, we just couldn’t make ourselves go. We had been out there for 5 days on the night she spoke & with classes running from 7am until 6:30pm, we were ready to “hit the hay” by 8pm every night. But even though we skipped her event, we still saw a lot of really talented people. It was very inspiring! We are looking forward to putting some of the things we learned into action right away. Check Andy’s facebook…I think he put up a few pics. One of the pics is of a man holding a bible in the air. It was really interesting…it was lunch time & people were everywhere & this guy was out in the middle of the food court just proclaiming away to any & all. But what was really funny was to see how many photographers rushed over to take his picture!! I’m curious to know….out of the 7,700+ photographers that were there, how many took a picture of this man??? Yeah…can you imagine over 7,700 photographers all compiled in one little town? Well, Phoenix is not exactly small, but still, that many photogs in that one town was interesting.




Don’t forget…the bridal show is this weekend! Come visit us if you are going to be there.

Ta ta for now!
