10 days... and no blogging...what a bad blogger am I?




I just realized it has been 10 days since I last made an entry. Let me see if I can sum up the past 10 days. Last weekend we attended Jason and Juli's wedding. As you can see from the first image shown - the graciously made a donation to both the Cure Tay-Sachs Foundation and Conner's Way Foundation. I had the privilege of doing the wedding photography - which was wonderful. So great to work with such amazing people! Thanks to both the Kirchner and McDonald families for sharing your special day with us! (we shall not make any mention of those pesky blue drinks - lol...) We had such a great time in St.Micheals and the weather...well it was PERFECT!

I was just about finished editing the wedding photos when I got a call about a baby who wasnt born yet, but had a disease that would take him shortly after his birth. I rushed to the hospital and photographed this little one who entered the world and stayed so briefly, but was so very loved. Doing this kind of work - truly allows me to give back in such a special way.

So you see - I have been at my computer every spare second editing photographs. And the spare seconds Im referring to.... they don't come along that often in our house. Avery turned one and is suddenly into EVERYTHING!!!! She is taking about 2-3 steps at a time before she goes back to ole faithful....the knees, they are much faster - lol. Oh and she wants to be held ALL the time - and dont you dare try to put her down, because she now throws herself on the floor screaming - kinda amusing! It has been 2 + weeks since her surgery and I hate to report that I really see very little change and suspect she may a have another surgery in her not so distant future :( She goes back at the end of this month for another follow up - so we will see what the doc thinks!

Brenden had his first real football game today - where he did AMAZING! He is one tackling fool! In fact, he got the last tackle of the game and prevented a touchdown on the last play of the game. However, football skills aside - my favorite part of the game is when he was all the way down the field away from our team and the speakers started playing Lady GaGa's Poker Face. Well...... rather than hussle to get back to the huddle and start the next play, Brenden started dancing in the middle of the field - the whole place was hysterical! And some of his teammates amused themselves on the sidelines by dancing to the booty call and playing duck duck goose - SO CUTE!!!!
