hello faithful friends, i must apologize for our serious lack of posting lately! once last week, seriously kate?? ugh, embarrassing – especially since (maybe unbeknownst to you, but still) i have a personal goal of blogging 2 – 3 times a week!
i have to catch you up! let’s start with – matt’s last day at his ad agency is tomorrow! yikes/yeay! i’m pretty excited about having him to myself from now on but it also means we’ll be taking on a crazy amount of work, good thing we love taking pictures, like, tons of them! we celebrated his retirement when he gave his two weeks – by purchasing matt’s first pair of flip flops, it was only fitting ;)
today i experienced a rare joy. i finished off our frosted mini wheats. some of you are already celebrating alongside me because you’ve enjoyed this yourself. for those of you who haven’t experienced the sweet crumbled end of this particular cereal, i highly recommend it. actually, next time i buy it i’ll just shake it up a little and maybe at the end of the box i’ll enjoy two bowls of dusty sugary goodness!?
as of last night, we’re officially a one car couple. we’ve been looking forward to this for a while, maybe it seems a strange thing to be excited about – what do you expect of us? maybe it comes together better for you when i mention that we sold a gas guzzling jeep grand cherokee? we’ll miss it for sure, but with both of us working from home and working together on the weekends, it was a little tough to justify keeping that big white beast. adieu!

we squeezed in a couple of dates to see two bands that have been in our top ten for quite some time now, iron & wine and radiohead! two totally different shows, two totally rad nights!!
ah, i cannot believe i haven’t told you, we incorporated! we are now altmix photography, inc. woah, right? official! :)
tonight i made a fab chicken soup because we’ve both been a bit sick. i was really excited to serve it when matt walked in the door and informed me we might as well eat plain bread because he couldn’t taste a thing. as we ate our soup i tried to imagine what it must be like for matt to eat it and not taste it. i grossed myself out so much focusing on the textures i almost couldn’t finish my own…
side note: clearly matt’s meds are making him delirious. right now, he’s taking a break from editing to dance (in his own unique style) to air in our living room. it is definitely for my entertainment, but still, like i said, delirious. ;)
sorry for the random nature of this post, there’s a lot to be done with our business, but one of my favorite parts is meeting people through this blog and chronicling the adventure that is our crazy life. i, kate altmix, solemnly swear to post at least 2 – 3 times a week, from now on, even though it’s wedding season, and even though i’m a little congested, and …
love you guys! talk with you soon! :)
Congrats on selling the Jeep!…and on now being INC! You guys are on a roll………ENJOY! We love you guys and have great confidence in you as you begin your full time adventure….the sky’s the limit!
P.S….love those flip flops, Matt! ;-)
Kate…you are too cute. I enjoyed the post…but i just can’t fathome to believe that Matt has just NOW ventured into the world of flip flop ownership…it just doesn’t fit. I mean…sersaly? ha! Congrats on the big INC!! woohoo!
Hey there both of you. The website looks great, and so do the wedding shots. I’m really impressed. And I didn’t even know (Matt,) that you were quitting your job. Congrats. Hey, lets catch up soon- I’ll be in town the week of June 2nd. Hope you guys can squeeze me in somewhere. By the way- I just realized that I have another Wedding/Blogging friend with a website, and she and her husband actually go to your church. I told her about ya’ll and so now I’m doing vice versa. Her website is oncewed.com and she hots a site for women to buy and sell their wedding gowns. Anyways, exciting. I’ll call you soon, or you me. whatever.

Fabulous. This post is the essence of Matt and Kate. Love that you only have one car (sad the jeep is gone though), love that Matt was dancing in the living room, love that you are INC-ed. Love watching your life…
i just have to say- my quick silvers are off the chain
