Waiting Game!

Without going into too much detail I have to tell you that things are CRAZY around here. Each of my four kids are waiting for things. Important things. Life changing things. . .

Here's one BIG thing we're excitedly waiting for. . .

A Wedding!


Just 31 days and counting. . .

A few people wanted to have a look at the wedding announcement so, here it is. The kids asked me to play photographer and I had lots of fun taking their pictures. We also made our own announcements and saved some money along the way. You have to save money in some areas so you can spend it in the important areas like the BIG party.

It's going to be a lot of fun with friends and family. I'm really looking forward to it. Maybe after the wedding I can get back into the swing of things. Sewing things, that is.


For your viewing pleasure I've included a few of my favorites from 3 photo shoots.


















This last picture is one of my very favorites.
It's just so sweet.

Kim, those are REALLY great pictures and what a beautiful couple! I don't know which one is "yours" but they are both beautiful! Did you take those pictures at/around the Star Mill? I went there yesterday. It just looked familiar. Great, great pictures though. Good job!

WOW Kim! You did an amazing job with the photos!!! They're fantastic -- I'll bet the kids were thrilled!!! But. Inquiring minds want to know -- how many times did your future DIL fall in the snow with her heels on LOL??? (That jumping picture would have given me a heart attack with that snow under foot!)
