I was pulled over running a red light . . .
I can honestly say that I have never received a ticket and I have only been pulled over 2 times…first for having my trailer lights go out and second for giving some drunk friends a ride home on a cold winter night and the police were just targeting people. Anyways… I am a...

A fun walk with my girls
It was much to nice of a day to stay inside, so the three of us went out for a fun walk in the woods near our house. These walks are more of an adventure for Grace then her normal walks through the neighborhood. She runs all over the place pick up things she finds...
Photo Booth fun at last nights wedding
Rachel and I shot a wedding for Liz and Matt over in the Stillwater, MN area and were stoked to see that they had brought in a photobooth for their guests. Right away we knew we had to hit this up before we left that night. I thought they turned out pretty good.
