Andrea and Maddie

These pictures were so much fun to capture. Andrea is a good friend of mine and Maddie is dear to my heart! I have seen a long journey in this young woman's life and it is a true testament to the Lord's providence. Love them!!!!

Time Travel

Okay, so I've decided to share with you my thoughts on the most random of things. While I was driving home, Delilia was playing her usual sappy love songs, that I know every word to, and rain was pouring down like I've never seen. The kind of rain that is reminiscent of the ocean because when the wind blows it, you can see the movement the wind is making. THAT kind of rain storm. It made me remember my teenage years when I would get in the car and drive at night and just sing at the top of my lungs to Alannis Morisette when I was mad or Celine Dion when I wanted to cry. And I started to realize that these moments that are re-lived in my head are rarely shared with the world. Mainly because they occur only in my head. But now I want to share them and see if any of you can relate. While I was pondering the memories of singing "Jagged Little Pill" in the parental's Mountaineer, it hit me like a ton of bricks....I felt like i was time traveling. Don't you ever have those moments where you remember something and you say, "wow, that feels like yesterday". Well I like to think that in those moments in life God allows us to have a little fun and experience time travel.

I remember laying in bed in my old house on Huntington Drive in Midland Texas. I have a lot of memories of laying in bed because I could NEVER sleep. So I thought a lot. I thought a whole lot about who I was going to marry one day. I was never the type of girl to dream about my wedding, only my husband. And I would sit up, with my legs crossed and just dream up where he was living and what he was doing at that exact moment that I was thinking about him. I remember doing that so often, just like it was yesterday. I never could have guessed that I would be so blessed beyond measure to find the husband that I have found! He was more than I could have ever dreamed up!

When I think of that time being 8 years old, I like to think that I traveled back to that day and I rest assured knowing that the Lord had it all in his plans. It's a great feeling!

I'm sure all of you who are dreamers can relate!!! Right?!?! :)

This Describes a July Wedding

New Website = New Start!

I am so thrilled to finally have an updated and fully wonderful website. With the new process of getting married, I acquired a husband who is super technological and organized. So a little special treat, that I didn't know I was getting, was a complete makeover for my office and for my business! It is such a great thing to be married and have so many additional blessings that come along with it that you had no idea about! So here I am, updated to the new Mac Snow Leopard system and my computer rig is just about as neat and organized as you can get it! I am ready to go and ready to stay updated with the world! And I commit to keeping my blog updated and my website pretty!!!! I look forward to connecting with all of you!!!!

Happy July!
