It has been a long while since I have expressed my feelings on here. That is what I started this for….but where does the time go? I remember when I was in school, I thought I was so busy because I had school, homework, and of course my FRIENDS!! Boy, do I wish could back to those days. Now I have about a million more things on my plate. I am not complaining, really, I am not. I have so many AMAZING things happening in my life right now. I really feel kind of bad because I don’t deserve all of these things. I am very blessed, but sometimes I wonder if I deserve all that I have. Let me just start at the beginning……
I know everyone knows the song, “I am so excited”! I am totally singing that song right now! Some of you know that Eli & I are taking a leap of faith and trying to start our own photography business. I eventually want my own studio, but for now I am just going to take outside family photos. This is a dream of mine for a while now. I finally convinced my husband to get on board this train and let’s just do it. I have loved photography as long as I can remember. I am the one at family events with the camera in my hand. I am always the one taking the pictures, never the one in the pictures. I have been taking pictures here & there for a while now. I have even shot a wedding! Now it is getting serious. I have a name picked out and everything. I am in the process of publishing a website and getting my business name registered. I never realized how much goes into starting a business. I have to save all of my receipts now, and that is hard for me!!! Oh well, if that is the least of my problems, then I have it made in the shade with some pink lemonade! It is all just a lot. It is really hard to work a full time job, a part time job, be so involved at my church and try to start a business. Sometimes you just have to thank God for unanswered prayers. Late nights and early mornings, hours and hours of sitting behind a computer cropping and editing pictures! I love every minute of it though! I guess that is one plus to me not getting pregnant yet. I am not saying that I don’t want to get pregnant; I am just saying that God has a reason for everything! This is the beginning of another chapter in my life. So get in touch with me for all of your photo needs!!!
On top of all of that, Eli gave me an early birthday present. Can you believe I will be 30 on the 25th of May? Me 30, NOWAY!! Eli brought home an 11 week old Rottweiler puppy on Friday! I finally gave him a name...Hercules! He weighs 29 lbs and he is solid muscle! His paws are so big. As many of you know, I have a 10 year old rott now. She is the BEST dog I have ever had! Herc is a pretty good dog so far, besides the chewing. He has only had like 3 accidents in the house and he will go into his create and not whine the whole time he is in there. But, oh my, the chewing….he chews on my feet, my ankles, my dresser knobs, my other Rottweiler’s bed, my other Rottweiler, socks, shoes, and the corners of the walls! He has also cleaned everything out from under my bed. I still love him. He is so cute and will be so big really soon. I can’t wait. He is the best birthday present ever, but am I ready to have a puppy again? It has been 10 years since I have had a puppy.
We have about 100 other things going on in our lives right now, but I really don’t have anymore time to get into them. I just want to say that GOD IS GOOD! God has put many great and awesome opportunities in front of right now. It is all in His hands.
