Back into the swing

This will be short but I said I was going to blog weekly and since today is the last day of week 1 I guess I better blog.  Went back to work on Thursday and I still wish I could stay home and be with my babies instead of working but the bills must be paid.  Today we are cleaning and working on getting things back in order from the holidays and I know we will still be working on this well into next week or the next.  If only there was more time in the day to get things done.  Anyway, I guess week one of the is year has been ok.  As I said in my last blog Monday we buried my grandfather, Tuesday was my anniversary, Wednesday I got to eat lunch with my grandmother for New years and Thursday and Friday it was back to work.  Here's to keeping goals I have set and keeping myself accountable for things I want to do. 

Now to finish cleaning, so I can get everything organized and hopefully get some things jumpstarted again that took a major back burner here lately.

Love and Peace to all!

Birckhead Wedding

I have the privilege of working with Kara each day at my school.  Not only is she an awesome secretary but she has become a great friend as well.  This summer her boyfriend came to school, brought lunch and proposed!  Super sweet!!!!  She asked me if I would do the pictures for her wedding and of course I jumped at the opportunity!  This past Saturday, Joe and Kara tied the knot and it was a gorgeous day, gorgeous ceremony and such an awesome couple!  Here are a few of my favorites so far from the wedding. Thanks so much Kara for letting me capture your special day!

My Goals (Resolutions) for the year 2014 1.  Finish a bible study {still looking for one} 2.  Finish a book (maybe a series too)  {I have started a book and I am actually looking forward to finishing it so let's hope I do it!} 3.  Blog weekly  {I am still blogging ....maybe weekly was a little much for me to really commit to but I am working on it} 4.  Stay organized (home, work, self, etc) {This is so hard for me!!!!!!!!} 5.  Coupon {I am slacking} 6. Start saving money {hoping to do this after tax return comes in} 7.  Take more pictures (personal and for others) {I take pictures daily on my phone but I need to take more with my camera....I have done a wedding so far, took pictures of a friend, and i have had some inquiries about me doing some ...

Looking Through the Rearview

As I start this post, there are many emotions that are running through me.  Yesterday, December 30, 2013, I sat with family surrounded by a community, church family and friends as we laid to rest my Papa, Neville Shelton.  In my 30 years, I have never met a more godly, caring, nonjudgmental, respectable, loving, giving man than my Papa.  I was blessed to be his granddaughter and as much as I miss him and his support here on Earth, I know heaven gained a true saint, and he is taking in his heavenly reward with my brother, James, by his side.  I love you Papa and I will miss you, but I will make sure Noah knows how special you were. Okay now that I have tears rolling down my face let me move on...looking back on 2013(the rearview mirror) it has been a rollercoaster of a ride....in January we made frequent trips to the doctor for ear infections that Noah kept, Noah and Kaylynn had the flu, in February my grandfather celebrated his 91st birthday, in March my son had hi...
