Good Luck Ed (and sorry to everyone else who's been following our postless blog)

Well guys, so as to not sound like a broken record (see post below), I promise to keep this short.

So much has happened since we last posted about 4 months ago?!? Meredith's business has been doing incredible - her work was featured in a local perfumery, she recently spent a day at a workshop in New Haven, CT, and it seems that she can barely find a moment to relax between all of her shoots. I have been trucking along in my web work, sadly geeky, enjoying some new programming I've been doing for a client login system and a content management system (I can't believe I just said that).

At the beginning of July, Meredith, Orvis, and I moved into a new house in South Portland, where Orvis is now the proud master of his own, exceptionally large, fenced in backyard (pictures to come). The new place is only 3 doors away from Mere's studio, and sadly for my waistline and wallet, 4 doors down from the new neighborhood ice cream shop and bakery!

I want to take the proper time to post about the new place and our work (I promise soon), but before I go, I wanted to wish my fraternity brother Ed Ivey, the best of luck on his New York Bar exam tomorrow morning. Unfortunately for Ed, his trip today from NC to NY has been a complete disaster, and if I'm right, he's probably somewhere between Connecticut and New York right now - when he should be sleeping. Anyways, Ed, good luck tomorrow. Do well so that you can move within 5 hours of yours truly and one day become a big city lawyer like in The Devil's Advocate (bad allusion, I know).

Breathe Easy guys, and thanks for the interest... I promise I'll be better about keeping ya'll up to date.

Our Faithful Followers

So it's almost inexcusable how long it's been since we've done a legitimate blog post. In reality, we had pretty much given-up on the blog, since we thought that our only readers were our parents and siblings, and it turns out that not even they were following Cain From Away. Little did we know that once the posts disappeared completely, our truly loyal followers would come pouring out of the woodwork... and by pouring, we mean thank you Matt, Courtney, Uncle Mark, and Ed (not Meredith's stepfather who we're pretty sure doesn't know this blog exists) for filing the proper complaints to the authors of this blog and getting it rolling again. We'll even try and do a catch-up post after this one to cover The Maine Winter... which we pretty much skipped in its entirety.

First, we've got an update on Orvis's pad. He pulled some strings and had his main room redecorated with the help of his grandparents (who were in town to assist with Meredith's studio preparation - more on that in another post). We now have even nicer furniture than I ever thought I'd own in my life with the addition of a comfy green couch and a sa-weet leather chair.


What's more, Orvis can now watch his weekly soaps and trash reality shows in beautiful HD glory on his new flatty. Sometimes we wrestle the remote away from him and even get to watch some of our own shows.


But more often than not, he makes us stick to the old tv...


Winter's almost over here and as the snow melts, Meredith and I are looking forward to enjoying some warmer weather and great Maine places. I promise we'll keep our avid followers posted, and even attempt to catch them up, in the next few weeks. Breathe Easy, you four (or maybe even more)!

OOPS!

Okay, clearly we've been neglecting this blog.  Here are a few pictures to keep you all entertained while we find the time to catch you all up.  So far, we're loving Maine in the winter!





Busy Busy Busy

Happy 2009! I hope this post finds each one of you well and that your new year is getting off to a fantastic start! Michael and I have sadly neglected our duties to keep you all up to date, but I promise that an update is coming this weekend when we have some time on our hands.

In the meantime, please feel free to look at our websites to see how we've been spending our time!






More to come soon!  

Breathe easy!
