New attitude!

So my friend Becky Jean has been here for the last week. Let me tell you she just fits right in and jumps in and gets her hands dirty. We absolutely love having her here. Probably one of the busiest weeks of my life. Between my job with Steiner taking four family portraits and the craziness of childrens schedules--I really feel like I need a break this week. So today I worked from 9:30 to 6:00. Not really a break. It was also Becky's birthday on Sunday and we had a little get together--because my friends here in Indiana already love her!

So my goal this week is to exercise every day. I know I can do it. I got up this morning and ran three miles. Once I start doing it I know that I can keep it up. It is just the initial getting going! I have to admit though that I am not really a runner and will have to start from scratch. My friend Becky is a runner (if you didn't know) so she is my inspiration. (I want to be able to call myself a runner too).


I loved taking pictures of Lisa and her family! I know them so I was so relaxed and able to really try to capture who they were!









I also took pictures of this cute family in my ward and got some great shots!








Sorry that is an overload of pictures but I loved them all so much that I could have posted a lot more. It has become such a part of me that it is hard to even talk about my life now without showing pictures. It captures a little part of what my days are like. I also get to spend so much time with such wonderful people. It is a lot of fun for me! This week I am getting out and taking pictures of my own kids. I have two families set up for this week so I just hope the creativity will still be there!

Wish you could take our family photo's. We need updates desperately!! Great job running 3 miles. If that is just the beginning you will be a marathon runner sooner than you think. Keep it up.

I want your couch. Do you just throw it intot he back of the van and drive around with it? Do you tie it to the top? Good job on the 3 miles. Keep it up.

omg, I am laughing so hard right now. I am so glad I could be an inspiration! here's a little secret - you can call yourself anything you want, but the trick is to get everyone to BELIEVE it. I think I have Indiana believing I am a runner! Fantastic!!!!
Miss you already.
