  1. Peak Family Vacation 2009

    June 22, 2009 by Kelly

    Jeff’s family came down from Kentucky to Florida for a vacation. We did the theme park thing, shopping thing and other Disney stuff. And they went to the beach for the day while Jeff and I worked.Everyone

    Monday night involved birthday gifts for Jeff and myself from his family and also lots of pictures of Jeff’s son. The biggest thing was the letter that Jeff’s parents have had since he was under a year old. The letter was from his biological parents. I can guarantee that you will never in your lifetime read a letter as heartfelt and wonderful as the one Jeff’s biological parents wrote him when he was 5 weeks old.

    Tuesday was spent at Animal Kingdom. It was so freaking hot that we came back to the house for a few hours, had dinner and then headed out to Epcot to see the countries and fireworks. I guess that just wasn’t meant to be because it got quite dark and stormy as SOON as we walked in. We quickly got something to drink at the pub and then ran over to the “shoppes” in England and sat most of the storm out in there. Once park closing came around, it was still storming so we headed back to the car. Thank GOODNESS we got a close parking spot (as close as you can get at least)!

    Our next big day out was full of popcorn from Kernel Encore and Jeremiah’s. Along with Jeff’s sister getting her 2nd piercings for her 16th birthday and then lots of walking around Downtown Disney!

    All in all, I’m pretty sure everyone had a good time.


  2. Fun in a Parking Garage

    Friday, January 23, 2009 – Happy Birthday to my other, other half, Angela!!

    Jeff is doing an open for a SXSW contest. So last night, we went to the backlot of the Disney’s Hollywood Studios (formally known as Disney-MGM Studios), not to go to work this time *since i.d.e.a.s. was closed*, but to shoot some footage in the employee parking garage. Last night, it was about 40 degrees, which to Florida people is freaking COLD. So here we are driving around with the windows down and the sunroof open to make sure that Jeff gets the right shot.

    We use a Canon HV20 HD MiniDV Camcorder, which is an amazing little camera, along with one of my newest purchases, a Joby GP3 GorillaPod SLR-Zoom Flexible Tripod. Joby makes all kinds of different sizes of flexible tripods and I would recommend any of them to someone that is even remotely into taking pictures.

    As Jeff was busy working on getting some stuff shot, I was taking full advantage of the parking garage being empty (which it NEVER is when we go to work). I was running around taking pictures of the “water tower” that guests would see while they are on the Backlot Tour of DHS.

    Jeff has to be done with the SXSW graphics in about a week..
