June 13, 2007 (Stir-Crazy)
The minutes passing between now and the wedding are beginning to feel more and more like months! Fortunately, a friend of mine (Schaum) has the next week or so free and he has agreed to spend it on my couch, so I don’t have to be totally alone for the duration. Thank God! Aside from just [...]

June 11, 2007 (Moved In)
This weekend, I finally got the vast majority of my belongings and furniture moved from my apartment to the house. My parents and my buddy Jason came to help, and I think I completely exhausted them! Of course, it didn’t help that the temperature was pushing 100 degrees (~37 C). I rented a UHaul, one of [...]

April 3, 2007 (One Year)
A year ago yesterday, Sarah and I decided that we were an ‘official’ couple, on the way home to Jackson from Marietta/Atlanta.

This was taken backstage at a performance of the Joshua Squad, a semi-professional Physical Theatre company that Sarah performs with and Chad manages. This show was at the University of West Alabama in Livingston. What a great trip!

March 7, 2007 (So what’s the date?)
So like everyone we talk to, people are curious if we’ve picked the day we’re tying the knot. Well, I think this has been the hardest decision because it seems like every little thing depends of the date and time, but there’s no one pressing factor that lays it out any easier for us to [...]
