December

This will probably be the lone post for December - what a busy month!

  • Started the month taking a quick trip to Tampa, FL with the WVU football team for their last away game. With a big win down there and a Cincy loss - we are going to the orange bowl in Miami! We leave Dec 29...I can't wait for some sunshine and pool action. 
  • I'm going home for Christmas! I am sooooo excited since I haven't been home since the end of July. Daron will get to join us for a few days for Christmas and I'm so happy we all get to be home/together for Christmas. Last year he flew on Christmas day for an away game. 
  • I took pictures of my first wedding last weekend. I was running around like a crazy lady and ended up helping in more areas than just pictures. I wish I could have gotten more pictures of the happy couple downtown and not just at the church but they weren't that concerned with it so I didn't push. I had fun but taking pictures of a wedding is stressful (I haven't even edited yet and will probably not post until we are back from Miami in January). You can't redo a wedding day so the pressure is really on. I would love more practice with this as the second and free photographer for people on their big day. 
  • Dylan is growing, growing, growing and currently in TX with Daron's family enjoying a few days for their "Christmas time" with him. I hate him being gone and miss him like crazy but I'm sure it's good for us both to have a few days of "space". He comes back Friday morning and I am counting down! 
  • He continues to love to play outside. I obviously get nothing done while he sits out there playing/examining every rock, stick, and chunk of snow so I've started doing my squats and lunges while he plays. I count so he can hear me (get a numbers lesson in too, right?) and the other day while I was doing my squats he stood up and did them too! I can't say he doesn't pay attention. I had him do it for Daron that night and we both cracked up as he did his set of squats. He's too much sometimes. He's also a big fan of head, shoulders, knees and toes and the itsy bitsy spider.
Nothing much else is going on. I guess I should use this time to start editing some wedding pictures. I'm sure the bride is anxiously waiting to see them. I know I was. Merry Christmas!!!!
