Some Things You Missed

Here’s a few things you’ve missed:

That day I made my her laugh
We Laughed

That one really late night
A Shay in the Night

That place we used to live
Security Detail

That day we moved
We Moved

That day I finally fit
Tons of Leg Room

That time we were small
Just for Fun

That other time we were small
Sippy

The day we played with friends
Big Man, Big Remote

That day we got away

That night we just relaxed
Popcorn

That day at the beach

10/10/09 [a wedding]

I apologize for the quality of some of the portrait images. I could have re-uploaded them, but I’m a little lazy at the moment. If you want to see better quality versions, just visit my Flickr page. Congratulations to Tracy and Roger and thanks for making me part of your special day.

What Dizmas is Doing

I’ve shared before that my good friend Zach Zegan is the lead singer of a band called Dizmas, and they are currently serving in a very unique and special ministry in Czech Republic. The video below is from a few of the guys in the band and really explains what they are doing day-to-day and I thought for those of you who have supported or know Zach and the band, then this would be a great way to hear their hearts and what God is doing in that country.

Oh, The Joys of Weddings

Oh, The Joys of Weddings

I couldn’t resist. Hopefully this shot doesn’t work against me…no really, I have ones where they’re smiling too! “She’ll love it when she’s older.” – Quote from the mom immediately after I took this shot.

Hear, See, and Do – #11

HEAR: “The Meaning of Justification” By My Pastor, Scott Ardavanis
[audio:http://placeritachurch.com/home/140005082/140005082/audio/The%20Meaning%20of%20Justification.mp3]
I really do sit under some incredible teaching every week. Our pastor has preached on this subject before, but every time I hear it I’m reminded just how important justification really is. Click the play button above to listen to the sermon or go here.

SEE: “Autumn Scenes” on The Big Picture

If you’re not regularly reading and seeing The Big Picture, make sure and add it to your RSS reader. The photos they put together are fabulous (and not to mention HUGE) and I find that it regularly gives me a little overview of what’s going on around the world. This week they put together a set of photos called “autumn scenes” that just really bring out the full colors of fall. Definitely take a few minutes to browse through these beautiful images.

DO: Get Out and See Toy Story 1 & 2 in 3D!
We went last weekend and it was well worth it! Both movies are fabulous and are pretty much becoming Disney classics, and the way Disney has put together the whole two film thing is great. We’re talking two movies for the price of one! The glasses are comfy (and will fit over any regular glasses) and the films are hilarious–even if it’s your third or fourth time seeing them. We had the luxury of seeing them at the ArcLight theater (I even got a hot dog delivered to my seat), but if you don’t have one of those nearby I’m sure your favorite theater will do. There’s only 6 days left to see em’ so hurry up!

Sleeping At Last – Green Screens

Green Screens by Sleeping At Last from Javan Ivey on Vimeo.

I do not say this lightly: Sleeping At Last is in my top five of all time favorite bands. All three of their albums are stunning and lyrically they’re doing things that few other bands are doing or have ever done. Honest, creative, and thought provoking music and lyrics that you probably won’t find in the majority of the music you already own. They just released a new video (above) and I think it introduces you to them musically, but more importantly to their style and vision as both musicians and artists–I hope you enjoy it.

Buy all their albums on Amazon.com. No one album is better than the other; all are favorites.

1967

Had a little fun this evening with a friend’s 1967 Volvo. He’s trying to sell it, so we figured we’d make it look classy…not sure if the classiness came out, but we got some shots I’m digging.

New Paramore Out Today

I’m a fan of music, which is probably why I talk about it a lot.

Today is the official release of Paramore’s 3rd album titled Brand New Eyes, and from what I’ve previewed on their website…it’s gonna rock. I suggest you get yourself a copy. This band is good, no doubt about it.
