Lack of Posts

I apologize for my prolonged absence. It's been a crazy week and I'm still trying to catch up with life. Within the past 7 days, my Papa (Grandfather) passed away, my Hubby and I made a 700 mile trip to Virginia for the funeral, I turned 24 years old, we blew a tire and had to get new tires, and I've been knee deep in work and homework. I'm hoping to get caught back up tomorrow so that I can get a better grasp on my schedule and maybe get back to sewing many of my projects that have been waiting for me...including my April block for A Notion or Two. Sorry Russ - I'll have it done ASAP! I'll also have an update on photos soon. Our patio vegetable garden is growing all over the place (hooray!) and I can't wait to share the photos with you!

I've missed y'all and I look forward to catching up with your blogs soon.

Jason & Katie's Wedding

About a month ago I had the privilege of photographing Jason and Katie's wedding. It was the first time I had ever shot a wedding, so I was kind of nervous. But I think they came out pretty good. Here are few of my favorite shots. You can view more of my favorites on my Flickr page.

Hooray! A Snow Day!

For the past 2 1/2 days, Southern Indiana has been hit with quite a snow storm...which has meant 2 days of no school for me! Just look at our car and parking lot - do you think I could get out of that?



So what do 2 adults do on this wonderful snow day? Get all bundled up and make a snowman of course!


We tried to get the pets involved, but they didn't feel like getting all bundled up for our play-time.


The snow was quite fluffy and it took a lot of work to build our snowman up, so we decided to go with a shorter snow woman. We named her Paula because of her rockin' Paula Abdul-like hat and her beautiful flowing dress.

And being the "child" that I am, I had to make a snow angel. What a heavenly day...tehehe!



And this final picture is dedicated specifically to Mrs. Williamson's Kindergarten class in Prince George, Virginia (many of whom have never seen this much snow in their little 5 and 6 year old lives). Mrs. Williamson is my wonderful Mom and she called this morning to say thank you for the Social Studies, Math, and Science lesson that our snow storm was able to provide for her delightful class. Look kids - almost 11 inches snow! Pull out your rulers and see just how much that is!

Me & My Hubby

Every year Dustin and I take a Christmas photo for our Christmas cards. This year we were blessed to have a free photo shoot done by Josh of Sunlit Images. We worked out a deal where I designed some Christmas cards for his clients and he provided us with a free shoot in downtown Indy. It was so much fun and the photos came out so great! Here are just a few...




This kiss reminded us of our very first kiss...we waited a whole year after we started dating to kiss and we were so excited that we smiled and laughed during the whole thing. This is probably what we looked like during that first kiss...hilarious!



My hunky hubby! I just love him!







Thanks so much Josh! They are amazing!

Oh I Just Can't Wait To Be King

Guess what I'm going to see on Thursday?

That's right! Oh yeah! I'm so excited that it's here in Indy.
I'm going with my lovely friend Jamie. It should be a blast!
That's another Broadway show to mark off my list.
