My,Oh my the day flew by!

Another day come and gone...and WAY TOO FAST!! Now I understand how I have gotten out of the habit of blogging. I was just about to go to bed and then was like...holy moly I have to blog...Well I said I would show pictures of the Colorado wedding, but I only have the scenery...I have a few more, but I am not quite done. This is so that you may have good dreams of Colorado tonight!

WHAT A DAY...

Wow...I am soo sorry this is super late in the day, but I have made it before midnight!!! I am super tired! I drove 10 hours today to get back home to my family from Colorado. As I came home my most amazing hubby greeted me with homemade lasagne and green beans and sweet tea! Then as we were eating he played a recording of lil baby Cade...Cade was saying his colors...daddy would say "This is green" and Cade would say "geen" TOO PRECIOUS!!! Then after dinner daddy and Cade showed me how they play baseball (in the house) (lol). Cade "gets in his stance" and hits the ball...I can't believe how much my little boy grew in 4 days! (Tear jerker!) But I am excited too! Anyway, sorry to cut this short, but I am super sleepy and ready for a shower! Good night!!

WHAT A DAY!!!

The wedding is over and the bride and groom are off to alaska (i am soo jealous...but not in a bad way). The decorations have been cleaned up and most of the guests have gone home...But, 2 of the bride's friends and Karitsa and I went to Colorado Springs. IT WAS AMAZING!!! I have TONS of pictures, but I left my card reader in my bag down at the other cabin...and if you knew these "roads" you wouldn't go back until you were done either  :0)  I promise I will get pictures up! Anyway, sight seeing today was so much fun...we went to Garden of the Gods and Helen Hunt Falls...SO MUCH FUN!! The Garden of the Gods was just a BUNCH of super neat rock formations that are red rock...and the Falls were waterfalls...at both places we hiked about a mile then took LOTS of pictures. I had a blast today with Karitsa, Leslie, Taylor and nature!! If you haven't heard about it you should check'em out!! I promise I will load pictures tuesday!!  Now on to a 10 hour trip home with Karitsa tomorrow!! Gotta get up at 6 am (colorado time)! LOVE YOU GUYS!! Write you tomorrow!!!

Day 2 of 40 Days of Blogging...

Ok...so today was my traveling day for a wedding I am shooting in Colorado this Saturday.  I had a blast the first 10 hours...it went by faster then I originally imagined, but then...well...once we got within 30 miles we ended up getting super lost...to make things worse the roads were dirt/mud, it was raining and hailing, and the cell phones of the bride and maid of honor were both dead and we could not get a hold of anyone! After about 45 minutes of trying by ourselves (because there was not a place we could stop and ask for directions) we flagged down a complete stranger who drove a BIG truck (this detail is vital to our story because a big truck symbolized that he was a resident of this little town and may know his way around) anyway, he pulled over and I gave him the most pitiful face I could muster up with out crying and said, "Hi...we are lost!"  He said what are you looking for? Then we told him some County Roads and told him the name of the groom and he said..."Oh yeah, Sam's getting  married on Saturday...I almost forgot!" I LOVE SMALL TOWNS!!! (I hated them until this man - but only because there was not a single road with a sign! - But now things are better!) Much Much Better...mainly because I was able to get to the destination and go potty!!! Life is now much better!  :0)  Well...Off to visit with the bride and her soon to be family! I hope you enjoyed my story of my crazy journey!

40 days of blogger...

Ok...so my friend, and favorite photographer, Chelsea Lynn Giles, and I were talking this weekend and both of us had been talking about our businesses (as usual) when she said...I haven't blogged in a while. She then decided to blog about not blogging and why things were about to change. I am super proud of her! She has decided to blog once a day for the next 40 days.  WAY TO COMMIT, Chels!!  I have decided to take the plunge and do the same...I am going to blog once a day for 40 days! I have been so busy that my blog has suffered, and I have been thinking..."Once I have more time I will blog..." yeah right! I have been playing with Cade and editing in my time off...facebooking and not blogging...well, right now I am actually blogging while waiting on hold.  This isn't so hard...just take 5-45 mins (lol) while on hold with the school loan people. I probably won't be calling them daily, but I will make sure to stick with my commitment and blog for 40 days!! I promise lil readers and sweet blog...I WILL PAY MORE ATTENTION TO YOU!! I am excited...this is going to be a challenge because the next  25 days will be go, go, go...non stop traveling back and forth...2 weddings, a conference and my lil munchkin's 2nd birthday...so we will see how this goes...might be a little rough without a laptop, but I am committing! lol...i don't know if you have noticed but i am kinda pumping myself up...I am so cheesy! Anyway...I hope you have a great day!! Keep me accountable! Check me out tomorrow to see if I keep up with my challenge!! LOVE YOU GUYS!!
