So tonight Heather called and I got to talk with Amelia. I came up with a new voice because she enjoys it and it makes her laugh; thats how easy I am. Basically I'll do anything to make Amelia laugh and not cry. That's my job as 'Uncle D'.

Let's see if I can translate the voice through the worldwide web so you hear it in your heads...

I was saying her name. Amelllliaaa! -- in sort of the same tone, melody and carelessness as when Sloth yells, "Hey you guyssss!" in the Goonies; except I didn't do the chuckle at the end.

Anyway, that was the extent of our conversation.

It got me thinking about Amelia and wishing I could make her laugh face to face.

So I came upstairs and looked for photos of her only to find that I'm behind...which is sad because I'm her 'Uncle D' that takes pictures.

But I did find a photo from July 4th that I never posted.

Things are about to get really crazy and I hope to keep my blog updated. I have a photoshoot tomorrow evening and both Saturday and Sunday. See you soon.

By the way, congrats to Kayla and Chase on the arrival of their son, Drew Chase Payne.

Here are a few logos for the 89/68 Ride Through the Ozarks coming up on Oct 24th.

When I first started this blog, it was just going to be a a collection of my photographs and some text; despite my problem with hating what I write the second after it is written. Even that last sentence was almost deleted.
