Michael's friend Kat took the pictures. She's a professional photographer in Manhattan and they're good friends. She's not a wedding photographer. She does still life and product photography for some major companies in NY. I think they came out great.

Dealing with the death of Michael's dad was quite an ordeal. We learned a lot about probate and Texas law. Luckily Corsicana is pretty small. He lived in Kerens (about 10 minutes from Corsicana), population about 1500, and that made it easy to find things and find out who to talk to. The funeral director has weekly coffee with Michael's aunt, the local coffee shop was the best way to get out the news about the funeral, and there was only 1 flower shop in the whole town, so it was easy to get things done. I'm not even going to get into his banking situation which was a farming bank - no website, no online access, in a town with population of 124. Dealing with them was very interesting. We're still waiting on the graveyard headstone, but everything else has been taken care of.

Besides all that, not much going on here. We're starting to save up for our kitchen redo which will happen in about 5 years. I've gotten over my new car wanting and am now back to being happy still with my 2003 Corolla. It has 125k miles. I really want to go 2 more years. By then I should be able to pay cash for my next car. At least, that's the goal. It helps that I like cheap cars! ugh...yeah...not much else going on. sorry!
