Commercial Portraits with Scott
My first memory of my friendship with Scott goes back to when I was in 3rd grade. I’ve told this story before in a talk I gave a couple years ago on the topic of edification for a ministry I directed. The school that Scott & I went to had an event twice a year called “Field Day.” We would have races, athletic games, & other events where we’d compete against each other. The 1st graders got paired with the 2nd graders, the 3rd with the 4th, & so on, which meant that if you were in an odd grade, half of the kids were bigger, stronger, & older than you.

Read MoreChristmas Time Is Here
Christmastime is easily most everyones’ favorite holiday! The lights, the tree, the music, the food, the family, the remembrance & celebration of Christ’s birth bring us all together for wonderful memories that will last a lifetime. Aside from the cold weather, I’d have to say that Christmas possibly tops the list for me as well. However, I also love Easter, Thanksgiving, & The 4th of July for what those celebrations mean in my life!
