Wednesday we just hung out, ate some dinner, ran to the mall, and stayed up 'til about 4:00am just hanging out! I love when friends come into town, I never get any sleep, but my conversation tank certainly gets filled!
Thursday, we decided to show Corey some fun.. so we pretended like it was a Monday, and headed off to the Aquarium! Seriously funtimes!
I think Corey would have happily stayed in the Butterfly Garden forever! Check out the McBlog later for some of his super fun shots from the day!
A few of mine...
The penguins are pretty fun, too :)
Corey in the cave...
A little shooting tutorial over snacks :) Austen is a brilliant photographer...

After hanging out for the morning at the Aquarium, we headed over to the Blue Plate for some lunch.
Nathan and Addison thumb wrestling...
Corey telling Austen a very funny joke... about Pirates. Austen loved it!
Corey grabbed this shot of Austen under the table... the kids obviously took a liking to him :)
Then, we dropped the kiddos off, and headed home for the PUG! We had 27 photographers in attendance, which was an AWESOME turnout!
Corey gave a presentation about Rockstar Wedding Photography and shooting to the Extremes. It was super informative and loads of fun... I can't wait to hear him speak again!
After the PUG, we went off to Sushi Nabe for some yummy dinner and fellowship...
Indulged in some Ramune'... one of my FAVORITE drinks, and randomly, also one of Corey's!
Me and Diana... Thanks again to Corey for the first shot (which I love!)
Me and Erin...
Two of my FAVORITE guys in the whole world!
Photographer's socializing...
On the way to pick up the kids, the guys were talking about some techy thing, and I was a wee bit bored in the backseat... What do photographers do when they get bored? Take random pictures of themselves!
Friay, Corey headed home... we went out to Big River Grill for lunch before he left, and we grabbed this fun self-portrait! I love it!
Corey, thanks so much for coming up! We love you, and we appreciate you investing in our family, our friendships, and the local photography community! You ARE a rockstar, for sure!
(Remember to check out Corey's blog for more fun images! )

I'm glad Mark and I could be there and hear Corey's great presentation! He has such helpful, smart things to teach photographers. It was so much fun seeing you and Nathan too! We love you guys.
