Dental is done....

Went in to the dental clinic today for that portion of the overseas screening. Went well and we all got the green light! Now just get through the medical screening tomorrow.


Went to legal here, wasn't much help as I had expected. But I did get the contact info for there. I am almost thinking that it isn't worth even bothering with the photography business and I should just shoot for myself, maybe sell some landscapes etc... Gonna have to disc it with the hubster.



Kids and I will be heading down to the Seafood Fest here in housing in a few. They are having peel and eat shrimp :D Wish the hubster was here to go with us as he LOVES that kind of shrimp. And hey you can't beat a "free" meal right?

Amanda & Antwan

I had the pleasure of photographing Amanda and Antwan's Wedding last August at Fort Monroe. It was a beautiful intimate beach side ceremony. They had their reception inside the Bay Breeze Community Center.
Absolutely beautiful ceremony and couple. I hope you guys have a wonderful life together. Well atleast once he gets back lol.

Gorgeous Couple from OPLOVE Session

YAY Army Wives DVDs

Yay, I reveived my Army Wives Season 1 and 2 DVDs from Operation Homefront and Lifetime Network today. I can't wait until I actually have time to sit down and watch them. I may have to plan a girls night with some friends when I do.

Today the kids and I went to Triple R Ranch in Chesapeake for the Lincoln Military Housing Kids Crew event.
It was fun, until the rain came atleast.
The kids got to eat snow cones, have an "old time" photo made (dressed up and all). We went on a 45 min Horseback riding trail and even made a leather craft.
They also offered archery, fed us hamburgers and hot dogs, swimming in the pool, canoeing, fishing, washable tatoos and even a hay ride.
The kids really enjoyed it, just wish Dad was here. Hopefully he will be here for the next event they offer. I hope to have a couple of photos up in a couple of weeks of the kids, but obviously clients come first.

And my OPLOVE session with Donna was rescheduled again, that is twice this week. This crazy weather has really messed up my schedule lol.

Woohoo

I just found out that I won Seasons 1 & 2 of Army Wives!!! How cool is that!?!? I won it from Operation Homefront. They did a live chat during the season premier on Sunday. Lifetime Network donated the boxed sets.
I really love this show and even got to see where some of it is filmed while we were in Charleston in April. Unfortunately they weren't filming the week we were there. I will post more once I know about the disc sets. I am so excited. Now maybe I can get the hubby hooked on it too lol.
Just thought I would share my great news.

Christy OPLOVE

Today I had the pleasure of photographing Christy and her boys for an OPLOVE session. Two gorgeous boys you have there Christy. Thanks so much for choosing me as your Operation Love ReUnited photographer. I had fun and it was great meeting you guys.
And here is your sneek peak from the session.

The Start of the NEW YEAR

It was great to ring in the new year with my husband even though it was by phone. It certainly could have been worse. He called about 2 minutes before the NYC Ball dropped, so we celebrated my time not his. Certainly would have been better for him to be here in person but hey such is the life of a military family right?!? lol

Well not sure what to say about it. I am really looking forward to it. But I forgot my greens and Black Eyed Peas. Sure hope I didn't Jinx myself.
Spent the day unpacking and repacking for the next trip. We are heading to North Carolina to visit family and celebrate Christmas with them. And then I am off to Imaging USA in Phoenix.

I have decided to try and post here atleast 2 times a week. Hopefully with new photos. I am hoping I will learn some better organizational skills at Imaging also as I need to be more organized so that I can get the most out of my time. As I am also planning to workout 5-6 days a week, plus still homeschool the kids and have time for my photography clients.

Would love to buddy up with someone in the area that can help keep me motivated for the workouts, as we have a trip to Hawaii booked in July and I absolutely can NOT go there looking like I do right now. I am a stress eater and have obviously been stressed alot over the last 18 months. So if you are also looking for a workout buddy let me know. We can motivate each other through email and such if need be.
Thanks for reading and I hope you all have a GREAT New Year!
