This week has been the most intense week of the project yet, and it has been awesome! Tuesday we tracked three guitar tracks. Thursday we did two more guitar tracks and 3 vocal tracks, and yesterday did 6 vocal tracks. This means that we are now FINISHED with the initial busy tracking. Monday and Tuesday this coming week we will be cleaning everything up, choosing which takes sound the best, and then we get to do the fun and creative stuff. Tuesday a friend of mine, Russ, will be doing several backup vocal tracks, and if all goes as planned, we will bring in a cello player as well.

The following week (memorial day week), we head down to Conway to do the drums, bass, and electric guitar.

It blows my mind that the project is near completion. These last few months have been a huge growing time for me emotionally as well as spitirually, and while very difficult, have served to deeply strengthen me as a person and a musician. Broken friendships, financial difficulties, car breakdowns, etc certainly do serve to do that. But I cannot complain, not one bit. God is so good to Hannah and I, and our relationship could not be better!

Please do keep us in prayer these next two weeks. They are the busiest of the project, and we still have more to raise to pay for everything. I will keep ya'll updated on how things go this and next week, you guys rock!
