My favorite person in the world. There are not words adequate to describe how great Marilyn is, or how much of a positive impact she has had on my life. The most exciting thing is that, if you follow the trend of history, the best parts of our marriage are yet to come. Thank you for choosing me, Marilyn! #givethanks

Today I’m thankful for the amazing people that I get to work with and all the ways they inspire me to be better at what I do. Here’s a selection of color keys I made for the recent Darkmoone Faire trailer, with lots of help from the team at Blizzard, and then MoonColony and the motion story team took the ideas and made it all look magical. I am humbled every day that I get to learn from the best. #givethanks

Today I’m thankful for this table. It represents a string of small miracles for my wife and I, and allows my large family the room to finally eat in comfort with *no fighting. There’s nothing greater than a hub of good food and good conversation, the only place we still gather all together these days. *may still include some fighting. #givethanks
