The hardest time of year!

I have to admit that this is the worst time of year for my craziness. I get seriously depressed. The Christmas rush is gone. The weather is terrible and my schedules are all over the place. I hope this year I can keep it together. The day after Christmas I got a case of serious blues. I think I am going to start tanning. I have heard that it helps. I have also heard that exercise helps. I cannot image that getting on that stupid treadmill is going to help. I shall give it a whirl.

I have also been working on my indoor photography. I have to say that it is terrible. I don't know how to just get a regular picture of my kids around the tree anymore. I hope that gets better because all that will be in their scrapbooks will be pictures of frozen berries, trees and snow. Daniel took these last couple of pictures and I really liked them. See he always thinks that I have to be the one to take the picture.

We hope everyone has a safe and happy New years!!!

I am so proud!

I am so proud that I figured out to refigure my blog. I did not like the look of it so I had to change it up. For those of you who read the post I just deleted I guess I don't have the uploading of pictures locked down yet either. But this is what we woke up to Friday morning. Right now it is -1 outside.

I have been doing a lot of photography editing and printing out pictures. I never get around to printing out our own. I am feeling really isolated because of the weather so this helps me stay happy.

I hope all of you have a wonderful Christmas. I plan on eating alot and exercising very little.

What a pain!

Well I definitely like blogger better than typepad. It just was not as user friendly so now I am back here. I like it here, I feel comfortable here, I know how to post photos here. Well the Christmas season is really catching up on me. I have found a solution though and it is spending a little time at night making a family journal. I got the idea here.

I love how she has combined scrapbooking with journaling every day events. I used to find scrapbooking so over whelming with the page lay outs and making it just right. I love that on some pages I just write and use other things very simply. I just love the whole idea. I hope that i can stick to it.

My kids never cease to make me laugh. Jaden is a true believer in dresses but this is what I found him in at my moms house.

I mean what a drama queen from dresses to air guns.

He is the one that encourages him with the goggles and all.

I have not been taking a lot of pictures lately because of the weather. We might have a nice day when the weather might be in the high 30's. I guess this is when photographers start taking their inside pictures. I am just not far enough along for that.

Moving!

I have decided to move myself over to my photography blog and save precious time. I thought that people were getting bored with my photography so I wanted to seperate it. What I decided was that photography was a big part of my life. I can't seperate it. So I am going to find a permanent home over there and I hope everyone still can visit.

I am so addicted!

So I have figured out why I don't want to run. I am addicted to taking and processing pictures. I love it! It is in my mind all the time. I love catching a great shot! I spent this evening in a new location taking pictures of some of my favorite people. I just had a wonderful time. So then I had to come home and look at them and then it is 1:00 in the morning and no running done. But here are some of them that i got. Why would I trade this?

I love them, I love them, I love them! Some of my favorites that I have taken all year!

So when taking pictures slows down in the winter, I am sure that I will be able to get on track! So I am giving myself a reason to not be so hard on myself!
