Family Weekend

Friday was stressful to say the least. One of our family dogs by the name of T-Boneis very sick, and we thought we were going to have to have him laid to rest on Friday. I left work early to go out and be with my parents and T-Bone for his last moments. Fortunately, he showed some signs that were good and he is still here, but still sick. He is a lot happier though.
After that good news came a long, I went downtown with the Wests and we had some family portrait funtime at the battery. We wanted to stay longer and wait for the awesome sunset, but poor Maddox was getting chilly and there were lots of bugs out, so we packed it up and headed out for some grub at T-Bonz of all places. The keepers from the session are posted here, under the name “West”.
While at the Battery, some other photogs were out. I introduced myself to one of them and he promptly offered me a wedding for the following night. I had some plans that I couldn’t get out of, so I couldn’t do it, but I thought it was pretty cool to be offered a wedding just like that.
Yesterday Jessica and I went over to my parents’ for some more time with T-Bone and to drop some stuff off for the oyster roast my parents were hosting last night. There was delicious carne asada, chili, rice, and oysters of course. Oh yeah, and a huge strawberry cake as well as a pecan pie. So far it’s been a great weekend for family and friends. The rest of today should round out quite nicely.
