Exciting News!

Brian has been invited to include some of his artwork in an exhibition at the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft in Louisville. The exhibition will run from March 6 - May 16. Horse-racing fans may realize that the exhibit will be going on during the weekend of the Kentucky Derby when guests from around the world visit Louisville.

Cheap Thrills: Family (not so) Quiet Time

With our new status (temporarily broke), we made a list of "Cheap Thrills" - things that we can do for little to no money. Among those things was Family Quiet Time where we can draw, read, rest, etc. without music or television. Obviously, this was my contribution to the list. Today when we (I!) called for Family Quiet Time, Georgia ran upstairs to put on a dancing outfit. She, apparently felt that a "performance" was part of FQT.


Enjoy! (Sorry about the sideways view - we cannot change it.)

Happy 2009!!

We had not been to Young's in a while so we decided to spend a

portion of our New Year's Day there.

Some of you have already heard that Brian was laid off from his job upon his return to work on Wednesday. For a variety of reasons - mainly financial - the company decided to eliminate his position and refocus the warehouse function. We are hopeful that he will find another job in a short time. We have known for a while that this was not the right job for Brian as he has been unhappy and unsatisfied for some time. We are trying to look at this as an opportunity to start fresh in the new year.

This is a tough time to be job hunting and, as difficult as this time is for us, we know that we are fortunate when compared to many other job seekers. Most importantly, we have the support of our wonderful families and friends.
