Newsworthy.....

Not much happening on the homefront at the moment. Lee and I have both been sick this week. Ugh. Seemed like it wasn't going to end. So didn't have a lot happening because of that. However, felt like I did have something newsworthy....

HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY TO MY HUBBY TODAY!!!

That seems so strange to me! Lee and I started dating when he was 15 years old. And now he's 40!!! We've been through a lot in those 25 years. Needless to say - we came out much better on the other end. Love him soooo much! He is a great husband and father and I love being able to spend HIS old age with him! :)

He NEVER reads my blog - I will actually have to email him a link just so he knows I wrote about him! lol.

Got in the Valentine craft mood!

Snow - #1 of the year...#2 in three weeks!

Just a few bloggable pictures of the snow we got on Sunday, January 9, 2011. I got to stay home from work for three whole days!!!! Lots of fun. New bruises. Never.walk.up.the.Mahatheys.hill.again. :) A few things I noticed...my husband is MIA in these pics - and I have no clue where he was! And...Melissa hangs with us a lot! lol.












Not a real good picture...but this is the reason I will never walk up the Mahathey's driveway in the snow again....hence the new bruises. I fell FOUR times!!! And yes, I am on the ground in the picture. lol.

What we do when we have free time...and sometimes...it's better to just not ask questions. :)

We hang out with our family. In our living room that has no furniture at the moment. And play weird games.

Exciting changes!!!

As if I need MORE exciting changes in my life....lol. As most know, Shannon Byrd and I have been teaming up on numerous photography projects lately. Well guess what!? We are now making some official changes in the "Shannon Byrd Photography" business and hope to steer the business into the wedding market more for 2011! So please pass the word - tell your friends - tell all of those people that got new diamonds over the holidays! I am excited. I LOVE shooting weddings. But you just cannot get the coverage and the photos you need with just one photographer. So this is great! And we both possess different qualities that help each other - he is so good at the technical parts and I'm better at the creative parts...so we think together our wedding photography is going to excel! We have shot several weddings together already - but working together on a full-time basis gives us the opportunity to work out the kinks and get into a groove and improve. (I think I will make that our mission statement..."Getting into a groove which gives us the opportunity to improve!" :) Shannon will love it. lol.

We have set up a new blog just for the wedding portion of the business. It's still a little blah at the moment but give us a little time...it will be spruced up soon! And look for a sneak peek of our latest wedding that we shot in December VERY soon! Please visit the blog and be one of our "followers!"

And pass the word about the business if you don't care. We have both shot numerous weddings and are very experienced. Your word of mouth advertising is the best advertising we could ask for!
