| | Wow it has been a long time since I last posted!! I have been very busy and just plain neglectful of all things computer except getting emails out and even that has been bad. Since January Laura has come home from her global semester, gotten engaged and graduated college. She is in the full swing of wedding planning (next June) and working at day camp. She brought back a gorgeous sari for my from India. She has one too and we will wear them at her wedding rehearsal.
My mom went to Thailand in February to visit the refugee camps of the Karen people that have been coming to Chicago in droves. We have 25 families attending our church.
I have mostly been working as usual and trying to find some downtime. The end of January I went to regional conferences for Creative Memories and got to meet a lot of fellow consultants. It was fun to make some new friends and connections. I also got inspired to work my business more and have been doing so. I also added custom framing with Creative Memories in April so let me know if you need any framing done. At the end of April I went to Nashville to visit my cousin and his wife and their 2 year old boy. I hadn't been able to visit them since they got married so it was fun to see where they live and what their life is like. We went to a plantation near their house and walked around. I also gave myself an early birthday present and treated myself to a half day spa. A massage, manicure and pedicure. All I heard for 3 hours was calming music, it was wonderful!!
In May I turned 25 years old!! Scary, I know! I celebrated with friends at Cafe Ba Ba Reeba in Chicago. The next day I held a National Scrapbook Day event at church and had 6 people in attendance. It was nice to have time to work on our projects. Memorial day weekend Laura graduated so we were with family in Minnesota at St. Olaf. It was a great weekend to celebrate Laura's accomplishment.
This past weekend I had a few days off from work so I flew to Appomattox, VA to visit my cousin and her new baby Chloe that was 6 weeks old. It was wonderful spending time with them and hanging out with some of their friends. Chloe is the sweetest little girl ever, she loves to snuggle and I took as much snuggle time as I could get!!
I also did a photo shoot with Julia and Chloe. It was fun trying out different poses and places. Here are some of my favorite shots:
Tomorrow I am shooting my second wedding, so we'll see how that goes. I'm working on the photography more and more, so hopefully I'll be able to actually do it for money sometime soon. Have a great weekend!! Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!!!
