Weddings

Whew. What a week. I'm definitely still recovering from the events of this weekend. My husband was the best man for a good friend of his, and Skylar was the flower girl. And to share a little of my excitement, it was my first job as a photographer! I'm obviously still working to be where I want to be, but think I got some good shots:

Me taking pictures...

The lovely ladies before heading down...

My girl did it! I was SO so so proud of her, I think I had already started tearing up at this point!

Aren't they a vision? This was such a special time for us, all getting to be there together and playing such a big role in this special day for our friends. We definitely made some great memories! Now it's off to make dinner, then I have to go pick up a lil mama from play practice at OLA and take her to her house for her mom. YAY!

TAGGED

Amanda tagged me!

1. I was born in San Diego, CA and since then have lived in South Carolina, Missouri, California again, Texas, and Georgia.

2. I have some serious OCD tendencies! When I was little I used to count, "1.2.3.4." when walking and always had to end on 4 before going onto another kind of flooring! Now I'm just really weird about the way I fold :)

3. I LOVE sports. When I was a kid I wanted to be the first lady president, an actress, or play in the WNBA (ha!). Now I'm just happy to make it around the block a few times pushing my double stroller.

4. I'm a sweet treat fanatic. Anything chocolate (especially with nuts) I devour.

5. Together my husband and I could probably rap to any hip hop song....and hardly miss a word. We can also throw the football pretty darn far for some skinny folk.

6. I love to watch Yo Gabba Gabba with my girls. It's like a 30 minute dance-a-thon.

7. Lists. I love to make them. My mind is always going, racing, wandering, worrying. And I've found this is one of the best ways to get my mind a little bit of rest (especially at night...).

So there you have it. Seven not so known facts and/or weird randoms about myself. Now I'm going to tag:

Jessica and Talitha (I don't know seven people who blog!).

Blah

So, I feel as though I've been neglecting this poor blog lately, but between birthday parties, marriage classes, Christmas play rehearsals, church nursery duty, sick babies, and family in town, I'm surprised I haven't written less. I've been feeling pretty 'heavy' off and on these days. The good news is, Steven and I really really got a lot out of the marriage class that we had on Tuesday nights for six weeks at our church. The last class was last week and I can honestly say I'm bummed we don't get to go tomorrow. One of the things it did for us was give us so much to discuss! We'd come home on Tuesday nights in a great mood, get the girls to bed, and just talk like we did when we were dating. It's been a great source of connection for us. And wouldn't you know, we both learned a lot, too! I'm very grateful for having had the opportunity to go, and a husband who was willing to go with me :)

On a sadder note, my dad is filing for divorce this week, so I guess it will be official soon. It's going to be SO weird for me having my parents not together anymore, separate holidays, separate vacations, etc, that is, if I even see my dad at all anymore...but oh well, his loss!

I went looking for houses today with my mom and the girls, then met Steven for lunch at Fuddruckers, which was so nice. I also got to see his new place of work for the first time, how neat! I have to make pumpkin pie for the Thanksgiving party they're having...better find out when that is... Off to make dinner (late, I know) and get the girls ready for bed (ha ha, Aidan is still napping at 6 o'clock, I doubt she'll sleep at all tonight, but she was sick with a high fever all last week and is still recovering. Now Skylar and I both have pretty yucky colds...). Here's to quick healing and early bedtimes... :)
