We're Moving to Tennessee!

Well it's been in the talks for a long time now but it is finally here. After many years of contemplating a move out of state, Hope and I have finally decided Kingston, TN is to be our new home. Of course the news comes with great regret but also plentiful elation. We will certainly miss seeing our family and friends as often as we do now, but we will certainly be coming back to visit again and again.

Kingston, TN is just on the outskirts of Knoxville in the easternmost area of the state. With plenty of mountains nearby, as well as state parks, national parks, rivers, lakes, and recreation areas, Knoxville is a dream come true! Our new home sits in a beautiful area on a couple of acres within walking distance to the Tennessee river and will serve as a starting point to build the business of my dreams. Lush gardens, walkways, and water features are on the brain for Pavel Studio's but all of that is to come and of course I will share our progress here on the blog.

We won't be moving just yet, but will head out probably in early August to get the kids settled and Austin off to his new school. His favorite part about the move is that he gets to ride the school bus!... well that and having stairs for the first time:) I will post a few pics below. Anyone who wants to come visit please feel free to come stay with us anytime, besides, we need a few familiar faces to make us feel even more at home!

We will miss all of you sooo much, but at the same time we are giving you a great reason to take a vacation to Knoxville!

Have a great week.

-Matt

And the back deck.

This of course is where I will spend a lot of my free time, the shop.

Busy Busy Holiday Fun!

The holiday season is always a busy time of year, not only with business but also the holiday get-togethers and all of the shopping that must be done.  With the hustle and bustle I have neglected my blogging duties but alas, I'm back.  I will keep the wording short as I'm sure you are busy too, but here are some images of the happenings of the last month.  Hope you enjoy!  - Matt

The day after Thanksgiving is the annual "Turkey Run" in Hot Springs.  Always a blast!

This year Austin and I endured the cold while Ella and Mommy stayed warm at home.  My dad Ron met us in Hot Springs and help with the camerawork.  
The DFW chapter and a few others.
Every year I am army volunteered as the official photographer.  j/k:)  Here are all of the rigs that participated in the event.

After returning home we headed over to Lake Arlington Baptist Church for the annual "Winter-Fest".   There were plenty of activities to keep the kids entertained all day.  










Is it Ironic that a photographer has no images of himself?  Thank you to Benjamin Slocum for inventing the self-timer in 1901.  Without him, I would be lost in time forever!

As you might know, we have a great time carving pumpkins every year. The designs sometimes change but we always make it a point to put our faces on one of them. This year we have a new addition to the pumpkin carving family, Ella! Here are the latest!

Austin and Ella side by side.


And with all the lights out.


Austin's best pumpkin yet, an alien from Texas Tech.


And Mr. LongNose.


Have a safe yet scary night!
