Yeeeeaaa, about that….. Sorry guys, we have been super busy lately with life. We have been planning/preparing for our wedding at the end of June in ST. THOMAS!, Michelle was finishing up taking her Chief Engineer unlimited Coast Guard exams (she’s so stinkin’ awesome!), I have been studying for my Chief Mate Oceans unlimited license (pray for me!), and believe it or not we have been working super hard on Redemption at every opportunity! On top of that we have been to weddings upon weddings, we have danced at 3 this year and one more in a cave in Virginia this weekend, (Yay! to our newly married friends, congrats!!), hanging with family and friends, chilling out with penguins(they are the coolest if you have never met one), getting rear-ended in our truck on the interstate, praising Jesus with our church fam,[take a breath] sailboat racing, killing chickens (humanely, mind you and they have been delicious thank you!), wedding showers, and taking a visit up to Massachusetts to visit Michelle’s family and friends. We have had a pretty amazing and crazy and blessed past few of months!

Did we ever say we liked to dance? Shwing!

Well sometimes you just want to shoot clay things with cray friends.

Possibly the most incovenient thing that happened that day.

We love hanging with these guys! That baby face tho (:

Hello, sir Penguin.

Believe it or not, it was not cold in there..

Buoy races at our yacht club on Seduisant

The chicken processing yard, crude yet effective!

After our bridal shower we got to take some pictures, and things got a little goofy!

Michelle’s first trip to central Texas

Can’t be a Texas trip without visiting this weird city!

Hiking with the pup on our visit to Massachusetts!

Don’t worry though we have been taking pictures of everything that has been going on whenever we stop to actually take them! For a quick pallet teaser here is a little update. So far on Redemption we have finished up our freshwater plumbing, blew a freshwater tank up (doh!), started painting the aft head, got the reefer working, took tore the reefer apart and removed the old insulation, re-insulated, and knocked out a lot of little projects. We do plan to update soon and we have lots of pictures too!

Running the pipe for the aft shower pump drain. This fortunately made us aware of the serious condenstation problem we were having with our reefer

Always fun painting with our good friend Carlos.. Side note, he is immune to paint fumes at this point in his life!

Where we started tackling this project

This stuff was actually pretty fun to use. Two thumbs up.
