I have a confession to make. I so wish I could dance! I started watching So You Think You Can Dance at the end of last season and I got addicted. Last night’s show was awesome. Here are my two faves….

Chelsie + Mark

Katee + Joshua’s samba, so sexy!

My hubby’s out of town. I’ve cleaned the house. Washed the car. Bought a new printer. Can you tell I’m totally bored? Lol! I was going through some of my old journals last night. I just love going back and reading those things. I was such a dork! Anyway, I came across this entry:

May 13, 2004–Thursday
After I got off the phone with Eric today I almost started crying. I just miss him so much. I don’t know if I can take this. But then there’s another part of me that’s not worried at all. I feel like he is going to come back to me and then we can be together. I really feel like he may be the one. I’m probably just being crazy but you never know…

I think this was written after Eric had left to go to the beach for the summer. Pretty crazy huh? Little did I know 2 years later we’d get engaged.

just some random thoughts…

So I’ve seen a few photogs (Millieand Kelly)doing this brain dumping thing and I thought I’d give it a try….

I’ve been so tired after work this week. I just feel so drained and don’t feel like doing a thing when I get home. Maybe it’s because class has started back up. All that learning is tough!

I usually hate to cook, that’s Eric’s job, but I’ve been on a kick this week. I went out and bought myself a cute recipe book. I borrowed all of my mom’s awesome recipes and copied them into my new book. So I’m determined to become a good housewife and learn how to cook. I think I’m pretty good at following directions and making whatever so maybe I can make myself actually like cooking. Last week I made this lasagna from The Pioneer Woman. It was awesome if I do say so. Eric bragged on me all week ;)

My hubby is leaving me for the weekend :( He’s going up to the Buffalo River so it’s just me and the weenies. He did invite me, but I have a shoot on Saturday. Bummer. Not really, it’s a good excuse for me to stay home. I’m not really an outdoorsy chick any way and would have been miserable.

I’m so ready to buy a house!! It feels like it’s never going to happen. Eric and I have been talking about buying one for a little while now but haven’t seriously started looking yet. Hopefully within the next year!

I’m going to be 25 next month. I feel so old! Lol! Just 5 more years til 30.

I have got to start going to the gym! Somebody give me some motivation, please! I have gained about 10 pounds in the last year. I’m not saying I’m fat by any means, but I’d like to stop it before it gets too bad, ya know? Anyone want to be my gym buddy?

I need to get my thoughts out more. I mean, I need to learn how to express them better. Love my hubby for that reason. He makes me express my feelings when I’m angry rather than just bottle them up like I’m accustomed to. He’s the best and so perfect for me! How did this turn into a cheesy post?

I’m really ready to upgrade my camera. But I need the cash first. Now taking donations!

I wish my sis and I were closer. We’ve drifted apart in the last couple of years and it stinks.

I think that’s all the dumping my poor brain can handle right now….



hey brides!

I found a great blog post on wedding timelines by Anne Ruthman. Check it out here. Seriously, when planning your wedding the timeline is so important! You need to make sure you plan enough time for hair and makeup, portraits, etc. Take a few minutes to read it, great post!

I was tagged by the very talented Raye from Raye Law Photography. Go check her out, she does some magic with childern and babies! She seriously makes me want to have babies just so she can take their picture.

Because I was tagged I’m supposed to list 5 random things about myself…

1) Since it’s summer time, I’ll just warn you now. I get terribly irritated when I’m hot. I’m usually a nice girl but put me in the heat and watch out!

2) Because I’m on the computer photoshopping images so much, I’ll often look in the mirror and find myself thinking about what needs to be photoshopped on myself. Then I’ll realize that I’m in the real world and that’s not possible!

3) I love me some chocolate ice cream! I’d eat it all day if I could. When I was in high school I worked at an ice cream place, I can’t believe I made it out of that place without gaining a pound.

4) I don’t eat fish…but I’ll eat fish sticks. My husband is a big fish person. He loves the stuff. Me on the other hand, no thanks! But for some strange reason I’ll eat fish sticks. Weird, I know.

5) It drives me insane to leave the lights on in a room if someone isn’t in there! And my husband has a nasty habit of doing that. You should see me run around the house chasing after him turning off the lights. It’s ridiculous!

Now I’m tagging Amber from Amber Sycz Photography and Caitlin from Caitlin Domanico Photography.
