Good Stuff

Taking a break from blogging about vacation to document some good stuff happening on the homefront. We are in a celebratory mode because Scott is starting a new job (this week in fact) and with it, we are starting a new era of more family time and saner work hours.

It's no secret that advertising agencies have crazy deadlines and demanding hours, and combined with Scott's seriously long commute to downtown Atlanta, we only got time with him on the weekends -- almost as if he travelled during the week like during Austin's first year. Most nights, he'd get home by 7 (at best) and then back to the computer by 9 and holidays were always threatened by the likely possibility of some "big" project spilling over in to our sacred time. While he will surely miss the people, the awesome environment (dog and beer friendly), and the excitement of the video shoots and really cool projects (xbox), he's trading in his cool card for the corporate world and we couldn't be happier about it. With a shorter commute to the galleria mall area (and the ability to work from home), as well as a focus on branding and design (his true passion) vs. campaigns, we are hopeful that the new company will be his destination for the long run and that we'll get to see him at the dinner table during the week again!

Now for more beach photos of course :)

Congrats baby -- so proud of you :)
