Profile #27 - HEATHER

This is my wonderful wife Heather.  

She is the most special girl in the world.  

For many reasons.  

She is so talented it's ridiculous.  She will think of great ideas and execute them on her own with no problem.  She can create the most incredible things.  I'm in awe of her creativity and conceptual mind.  It's truly remarkable.

She's the most beautiful girl I have ever met.  In every way.  Believe it.  

Her smile is electric.  

Her laugh makes me feel like a little kid.  

Her eyes... well, I hope our babies inherit those.  

She is the most understanding person and she's perfectly honest.  

Her heart is pure and her aim is true.

She is a woman after God's own heart. 

She is the only girl that I have ever been able to pursue with reckless abandon, and my one and only love.

I love Heather with all that is within me, and my album art wouldn't be the same without her pretty face. 

Profile #26 - BENOM

Meet Benom.

I once heard someone say that people who pursue careers in music need "champions" in their lives to encourage, support and inspire them.  

Benom has always been a champion to me.  

He is one of the best friends I could have ever asked for.  

He speaks truth, genuinely and from the heart, and there is never a doubt in my mind that everything he does is out of love for me and others.

On top of all that, the guy is brilliant and creative.

This is Benom and, not only is it an honor, but his profile looked way too cool to not use it in my album art.  

Profile #25 - DAD

This is my Dad.

When I was a kid he used to take me hunting and I would follow right behind him, in his exact footsteps wherever he walked.  

I have always wanted to be just like him.  

There isn't a soul I look up to more than my pop.

He is an inspiration in his faith, his work ethic, and his love for his family.  I hope that I can be half the man he is.

I think if we went hunting today, I would still follow in his footsteps the whole way.

I love my Dad with all my heart, and I'm so happy he is a part of my album art! 

Oh... um... Hi.

Interview with Josh Rosenthal

I had the privilege of interviewing my buddy (and fellow singer/songwriter), Josh Rosenthal, for his blog recently... 

I asked him some serious, pressing questions.

Profile #24 - MOMZ

This is my mom.

The woman who birthed and raised me.

There is no way I can sum up who she has been to me in a tiny blog post.  I am eternally grateful for her.  

She has taught me the importance of family, how to treat others, how to love God, people and pets... even mentally unstable pets.

I have never doubted her love for me.  And I hope she has never doubted mine for her.  

I love my Momz, and I am so happy for her to be a part of my new record. 

Profile #23 - BRIAN

Meet Brian.

This guy has been one of my closest friends in all my life.

I have played music with him more than with any other person.  He is an excellent drummer, and an even better friend.

Our roadtrips and travels together are some of the best memories I have to date.  He has the best attitude, and can bring a smile to my face quicker than most.  

Our friendship is pretty special, and I can't wait to be "Uncle Aaron" in a few months to a beautiful baby Brian.  

I love Brian... and I'm so glad he is a part of my album art!  

Profile #22 - AMANDA

This is Amanda.

I have known  her for a long time.  She knows me better than most people.  

I have so much fun with Amanda.  We might annoy everyone around us when we are together, but who cares?  We have a blast.  

I have never known anyone more comfortable in their own skin.  She is 100% genuine, and she's an all-time friend.  I love how much she wants to grow and experience life to the fullest.  It's really contagious.  

Amanda is one of my closest friends, and I'm so glad she's a part of the new album.

Profile #21 - KYLE

Say hello to Kyle.

We have been friends for a long time.

This guy does the best impressions I have ever heard. He can have me laughing for hours with all of them. It's quite impressive!

We used to make goofy videos for a youth group every week. I wish we still had them because they were pretty hilarious. At least we thought they were.

Kyle has remained a really great friend through the years... even though I haven't seen him in a long time.

We have been through a lot together. Good and bad. We have changed and grown up together. We have shared in our pains and joys together. It's been so great to have him as a friend.

That's why Kyle had to be a part of my new record!

Profile #20 - LAUREN

This is Lauren.

I met her when I met Laura (seen below). They are roommates. They both bake amazing things. Mmmmm!

Lauren is so cool. She's fun and funny, sweet and courteous. (Yeah, I just used to word 'courteous'... deal with it.)

I like that Lauren tries to make everyone feel included and important. She seems genuinely interested in things I say, even if she probably isn't at all. That's really nice.

She is such a great and supportive friend.

It really means a lot to have Lauren on my record.

Profile #19 - LANCE

This is Lance.

He has been officially designated as my BFF.

That's right.

And you can't have more than one of those.

Lance is it. My BFF. My Best Friend Forever.

The BFF title comes with a lot of responsibility, and Lance handles it all very well. Sometimes it's scary how much he and I are alike. We like and dislike ALL of the same things-- movies, music, people, places. It's pretty insane.

Other than my own wife, I don't know that I feel more comfortable with anyone on earth more than I do with Lance. We could hang out for days together without tiring of each other even a little bit. I mean, I can only speak for myself, but I'm pretty sure he feels the same.

Lance is a worship leader in Texas, and I love singing backup and playing guitar in the band when he is leading worship. He is truly annointed.

We have done stupid things together. We have laughed so hard it hurts (I have it on tape), and we have cried together so many times (mostly while watching any movie that is even remotely sentimental) that it's embarrassing.

Needless to say, it's more than an honor for Lance to be a part of my new record.
