CDs are Here (in my house!)

So the most exciting news that the band could have has come to us over the last week... our long-awaited CDs have arrived from the manufacturer. They came in on Wednesday October 13th and things haven't been the same around here since.
... with the whole thing!
I'm rather pleased.
If you are not as close to this project as I am, here's a brief history of the process -

1) 2001-2006 - the songs were written (they've been changed, tweaked and produced at every other step of the process).

2) October 2006 - Recorded drum track template.

3) November 2006 - Recorded Animata Strings

4) December 2006- Edited the drum template beat by beat until we had an outline of exactly what we wanted. Recorded scratch tracks for the whole album. Tried out a bunch of drummers to find the right sound.
