May Madness

May was quite a month. I quit my job at Wolf Camera on May 1st and expected life to slow down a little. I have been working non-stop since the day I walked out of Wolf with little Gordo under my arms thinking he was Gerty. You see, Wolf closed their portrait studio, and customers need portraits, so when they call Wolf, they are given my phone number. Better than paying for advertising, eh? My last day at Wolf, one of our customers gave Karyn and I free tickets to a Braves game, which I wore my Yankees t-shirt to. The guy letting us in laughed at me, and we made it on the big screen for our 5 seconds, but it was only our faces at the bottom of the screen, For some reason, I don’t think they wanted my shirt up there.




























We went to New Jersey to shoot a wedding, and photographed 3 jobs in 5 days, along with visiting each of our family members at least once, and having several support raising meetings for Charles. We had brunch with my nana, which was way too short. It felt terrible saying goodbye after only a few hours, and saying, see you in July. My neice is crawling like crazy and is pulling herself up on things and letting go. She’s only 8 months, and she’ll be walking soon. It’s so much fun to see her grow. Andy our nephew is riding a bike without training wheels, and without fear it seems! Sammy was under the weather when we saw him, but he was as beautiful as ever.
























































We returned home ready for life to return back to normal, and a few days later, we found standing water in our pantry (please don’t repeat this when we’re selling our home!) because our hot water heater was leaking. So, that week, from Sunday to Thursday we had no running water in our house because we of course installed our own water heater. I was so proud of Charles. He has installed a few water heaters with his dad, but this was the first project he headed up, with me going, sure, I bet you could do it that way…I guess.
