Another Gratitude post

1.   A nice fluffy white snow.

2.  Having a perfect photo shoot with a 10 week old.

3.  Calibrating my monitor and no changes required.

4.  A good work out with an awesome personal trainer.

5.  Good health and the ability to participate in all the above activities.

Janet- Thank you for the personal training session today. You were wonderful. I was amazed at your knowledge. You knew the minute I started to lose my form, you caught me not activating my core every time I tried to skimp ; ) and you were able to give me just the right encouragement to straighten up, refocus and carry on. I was really impressed and see you going a long way. I wish you all the luck and look forward to our next meeting. 

Thank You to Jo and Baby B for an awesome photo shoot this afternoon.  You may recall, I randomly bopped into their place with my camera and did some photos of Baby B about 9 weeks ago.  Baby B and mommy and daddy weren't quite ready for me so we scheduled an official shoot and it went wonderfully. I am so excited to share some of the photos with you all.  B was so happy and smilie.  All I had to do was call her beautiful and she just lit up.    I later learned that Daddy sings to her James Blunts "Your Beautiful": ). Oh she was just the sweetest.

Its hard to believe that this long weekend is coming to a close. Tomorrow is filled with homework, photos,  and Janet kicking my butt into shape at the gym.  I have two weddings in the post processing stage, I will get some of those images posted in the next week or two.   Hardcopy Portfolio is also in the works, very excited to see the outcome.

My sister and I are starting an early new years resolution. Each evening we are going to review our day and list 5 things that we are grateful for.   Its a way for us to reflect on the positive things in our lives.  

1.  I am grateful that I got to sleep in today.

2. I am grateful that my first time making homemade chicken noodle soup went well. It was TAASTY.

3. I am grateful that my boyfriend is beginning to feel better after being sick all day.

4. I am grateful that I was able to be there for him today.

5. I am grateful that today was such a beautiful, sunny day.

It's nice to just take a few moments to smile and remember the good parts of the day : )  I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

I will leave you with a very personal look into my soul.  Here is an image of my soul portrait from a few weeks ago. The artist is a Lake City local Lisa Owen.

Squish Face

I know I am probably a bad mommy because Mickers hasnt gotten his hair cut in awhile but i thinks its so cute!!!! Here he is this morning, he isnt very squish face here but i never have a camera at hand when he is ultra squish face.

Sarah, that last one is for you : )

Oops!

So I was rearended yesterday, that was quite exciting. Not bad and no injuries! The lady behind me was rearended, she then hit me causing me to hit the car in front of me. Its amazing how fast that can happen. Luckily i was near the front so all my car suffered was two small dents i think from her license, and the guy in front of me had no damage. Yay for bumpers!!
