Oh my goodness, is this really happening???  Did I actually figure out how to sign back into my blogger???  For months now I've been unable to sign into my acct...so therefore no blogging:(

Not that there's been time for blogging!

The past 2 months have been NON-STOP!  Photo sessions, editing, uploading, filling orders...NON-STOP!  I'm just now getting to the point of a normal pace, heart rate, breathing...you name it!  November is not looking too bad either!  I think most of my clients were anxious to get in and get family sessions & senior sessions done BEFORE all the yucky weather:)

The new studio is awesome.  I love being able to just hop, skip, & jump over there for sessions on the rainy days, or for newborns.  One thing that having an actual studio/office hasrevealed to me though is how much time I spend on the computer.  I used to have my office here at home so I think I wasn't aware of how many hours I spend editing, uploading, backing up, & ordering until I'm still at the studio at 10:30 p.m. & David is calling asking when I'll be home...before I realize it 10-14 hrs have passed since I arrived there!!

I do love having such a quiet, beautiful place to work though...where nothing ever "walks off" of my desk:)

Hope this blogger thing will continue to work.  I'd love to be able to update every now & then!

Blessings!

Happy New Year!

It will never cease to amaze me to know that the One who creates such beauty, is also a Father to me.

It's been  8 years since my earthly dad passed away & words cannot express how much I miss him.  I miss being able to go to him when I need wise council. Or just his way of simplifying things when stuff seemed blurry and complicated. At the same time, losing my dad has pushed me to rely more heavily on Jesus.  To seek out wisdom & truth in His word.  I am so thankful that I can continue to lean on my Jesus in this coming year.  Couldn't imagine going thru this life w/out Him!

Took some of these on New Years Eve and just got time to edit a few of them.  Still practicing w/my macro lens till my fingers are numb.  FYI it's just about impossible to take a flash card out of a camera and plug it into your PC when you can't feel your fingers:)

I am in awe of the handiwork of my Father!
