So yeah, I'm turning over a new leaf. I've been doing more photography work lately and I have decided that I'd like to start pursuing even more work. That said... I've got to get my tail in gear for posting what I already have!
I'll be posting work from the last few months over the next couple of days, so check back!

spring flowers and michelle's wedding
well, i've not been a very good blogger, have i? that said, it has been a very busy several months!
i got a new job at our church - & i love it! i can wear jeans every day (or sweat pants), work from home some days, i rarely have to be up before 8am or so, and i actually have the energy (sometimes) to make dinner at the end of the day!
spring has sprung here in columbus. it's a beautiful sunny friday, and our garden is beginning to bloom! the vegetable garden seedlings are doing well (though it's still not warm enough to be put in the ground outside)! bobby has started or will be starting from seed: morning glories, red and yellow bell peppers, parsley, basil, swiss chard (that will have gorgeous pink and orange stems - can't wait!), tomatoes - roma and candy cherry, onions, marigolds, green beans, mixed lettuces, corn, and a few other things too! he built a gorgerous raised bed out of field stone right next to our kitchen, and i can't wait to start actually planting stuff in it!
here's a few pictures of the flowers coming up.... the larger landscape is from someone's house just down the street -- they have great landscaping!

in other news, bobby's sister, michelle, married her boyfriend, bolivar (he's from ecuador) earlier this month. i only took a few photos as i was busy most of the day, but here are a few getting ready and detail shots:
the beautiful bride (left) before the transformation!
shoes and earrings
antique family necklace
and the dress:
i wish (as i always do) that i'd taken some shots at the wedding! oh well! here's the link to the photographer's site for a slideshow. it was a beautiful wedding, and we had a lot of fun seeing all of the family!
that's about it for now! check back in a few weeks for another update -- i promise to come back! :)

thanksgiving
wow, i can't believe it's already been over a month since i posted anything on here! the short version of what's happened since then:
1. we found a home for two of the kittens and said goodbye to Guiness and Samuel... they got to stay together, so that was awesome.
2. Lucca found his permanent home with us, and he and Avery are enjoying being spoiled rotten by the two of us... they never dreamed of a life this great.
3. i got really sick and missed several days of work. no fun. :(
4. we went to texas for thanksgiving and bobby killed a hog, and then they (the men) buried it in the ground because it wouldn't have tasted good (nor would i have cooked it, but that's another story). my sis in law, joanne, and i got up at 4:30 am and went shopping on black friday... we had a ton of fun and i bought rugs for the house - a very good thing, except we need one more, and i can't find the same pattern anywhere.
5. we bought a new (to us) car from bobby's grandmother... very exciting!
6. i threw a bridal shower last saturday for jenni, my friend in columbus who is getting married to our other friend, derek, in madison, wi on january 4. we're going and i'm super excited! she's wearing my veil as her "something borrowed"! :)
7. i then drove to atlanta to see sara, one of my roommates in college and one of my best friends...and drove back the next morning. i figure my crazy days will come to an end in the next few years, so why not be crazy now?! we had a blast seeing each other, even if it was brief.
and that brings us to today... surely we've done more than that since october. seems like more than that has happened, but i'm blanking on it now. oh well.
time flies... it will be christmas before we know it. i've hardly started christmas shopping. lots to do in between now and then, and lots of other stuff going on in our lives...but i'm really looking forward to going home and seeing my family.
a few pictures from thanksgiving and then i'm off ... bobby's making dinner for me and my belly's growling!
