Hi. I used to write on my blog a lot, but then I got boring and busy all at once.

This post will cover several things, including WEDDING PHOTOS, which I finally finished last week.

1. Lack of Horse Photos. some people have told me they are sad that I haven’t posted any horse photos. Here’s one.

Horses.

This is mostly what they look like right now. Very Hairy. And they stand around a lot. Because it’s winter. That’s pretty much it. But they’re still fun and cute. I actually like winter horsekeeping. There’s a rhythm to it. And frozen poop doesn’t smell. As long as the pipes don’t freeze (causing me to have to carry about 30 gallons of water from inside the house every day) then I’m happy.

2. Working at Grand Valley. My new job is great and I enjoy working as part of a team again. I love being back at GVSU–it really is a great institution. I started work during the winter break but now the semester is in full swing and the campus is positively bustling, with students everywhere. Whenever I’m walking through campus I get this hopeful feeling that I’ll see one of my buddies from undergrad and I have to remind myself that they’re not here because they’ve all moved on to amazing things too. So it’s kind of a bittersweet feeling.

3. Stuff I do. These days I am a very happy person living a very busy-but-boring life. I work out at the gym as much as possible and ice skate 2 or 3 times a week on my lunch break. I’m trying to read more books, study the Bible more, work on my languages, and spend less time online. I drink like a fish and have developed an unabashed love of Pinot Noir. My room is still a mess. Today I decided to switch shampoos. I still freelance way more than I should, even though I’m making more money than ever, and I need to learn how to tell people ‘no’. I need to spend more time with my family. I need to start planning for next show season.

4. Wedding Photos. It’s Colin & Lisa’s one-month anniversary today, aaawww! In honor of that, I’ve prepared a slideshow of my favorite photos that I took as the official photographer on their wedding day. Enjoy. Be sure to click the ‘full screen’ button.

    You hope that you bump into me at campus too, right?

    I know you do.



  3. from Lisa Ann:


    Hey, if “boring and busy” means you hang out with me more, I’m all for it.
