Cameron's New Bike
Today Cameron had his 10th (double digits) birthday. Steph and I got him a Trek 820 mountain bike. Hopefully he doesn’t grow too fast, and he can get some years out of this bike. Either way, Steph will get a nice hand-me-down once Cameron sprouts. Happy Birthday Cam. I love you.

It's My Heart Save the Date Poster
Melissa at It’s My Heart asked me to design a poster for their upcoming motorcycle charity ride being held on June 6th. All proceeds collected from this ride go to the It’s My Heart Charity to help children born with congenital heart disease. This is for a great cause and I am hoping to catch a ride with them. You should come along also, I’m sure you will be glad you did. The ride rolls out of O’Hara’s at 10am sharp and takes off for the seacoast. We’ll end up back at O’Hara’s for live entertainment and a BBQ Cook Off. I hope to see you there.

Above is some artwork I did while the mood struck me. I’ve been working on designing a tattoo that incorporates my wife and son’s name, and while I would not put this whole piece on my arm, it is a start. Someday look for a sign to be posted as well. Please comment and let me know what you think. Hopefully I will start to put more of this kind of work up on my blog. Thanks for looking.

A good friend of mine (although I have not seen him in TOO LONG) was unfortunately injured in a motorcycle accident on January 31st. He suffered severe head trauma and has been in a medically induced coma since his accident. Please join me in supporting him and his family. Much Love to you Matt, I hope you get well very soon. God be with you!
I purchased a t-shirt and bracelet here: http://themattwelshstore.bigcartel.com/
You can follow his recovery on a blog setup by friends and family found here: http://web.me.com/mattbeckley/Site/Blog/Blog.html

Stephanie and I went away to her parent’s rental house in Lincoln, NH for her birthday/ Valentine’s Day weekend. She gets spoiled around these times, although this year I could have done a little better. The highlight from me to her was a 2 hour snowmobiling trip trough Franconia Notch in the White Mountains. It was a bit cold, and the morning was a bit rushed, but once we were settled into the trails we had a great time. To me, at that moment in time, there was no other place I would have wanted to be.

This photo was actually taken way before I knew I was going to ask for her hand in marriage. She still continues to foon speed me from time to time. I love her just as much now, as I did back then. Funny how that can grow with time.

This is a photo of Cameron and I that I really like, mainly because it shows how incredibly strong I am. Don’t I wish that was the case.

Leslie from Planned Perfectly hired me to design a website for a Bridal Event she is having at the Hyatt in Boston. This is a good example what can be done with only one page for a website.

Stephanie took me to the mountains for my birthday. We drove the Kancamagus Highway to North Conway, hiked to the top of Cathedral Ledge, and then stopped by Diana’s Bath, a nice waterfall, although it was a bit chilly at 26 degrees. All-in-all it was a great birthday!
