My Boys...

Just wanted to share a couple of pix of my gorgeous babies that I took while we were on a little family trip in Nothern California. I have a ton more to share but I am in midst of packing and getting ready to put our house up for sale...sniff...sniff!!!! The main reason for this post is to brag about my oldest son Mr. "J". He was actually the reason we were up north...He is part of a school team that participated in a competition called Destination Imagination...his team won FIRST place in regionals and the State Championship was in Sacremento...and yipee....they WON FIRST PLACE again! We are so proud of him and his team!!!! So now we are headed to the Global Competition in Tennesee!!!!

Thanks for looking!

For the LOVELY Miss Amber...

This sneak peak is long over due...I am soooo sorry :)! This adorable family won a session with me in a silent auction they bidded on about a year ago and we were finally able to do the sitting...or not...lol!!! Let me explain...California normally has beautiful sunny weather but....on this Sunday afternoon you could see sunny clouds all the way to the ocean but....behind you in the mountains you could hear thunder like you never heard before. I truly thought it would never make it to the ocean...boy was I wrong!!!!!!!! We were shooting for literally 15 minutes and here came the rain...we thought we could find some shelter until it past...but while looking for the shelter...we were just...say a little drenched. It was kinda comical...kinda! So, hopefully when we reschedule this session...we'll have our normal beautiful California weather...fingers and toes crossed!!!!

Thanks for looking!

Our New Chapter...

Where do I began...the picture is meant to be somewhat of a hint...but I have been told that not all people in Texas wear cowboy boots. Yes...you heard correctly TEXAS...we are moving to Austin, Texas. Am I sad? Oh yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will I be okay? Eventually...I have not cried in about 5 days...that is a sign that God is answering my prayers. As I shared in my previous post, my dear husband just received his MBA and NOW he received an amazing opportunitty in Austin, which we just could not pass up. I recently visited Austin and I have to say it is beautiful!!!!!!!!! We looked at homes and I cannot express how excited I am about the space we will have....I will have my OWN office and possibly a small natural light studio...(maybe)...I really have not decided if I want it..but I could have one if I wanted.:) And we would have room for a pool...the kids are sooo excited about that. My oldest is having a hard time but he is coming around. Just the other day he asked if he could make 3 wishes they would be 1. to get a good hit in baseball 2. win first place in his DI competitionm 3. To be happy about moving . See...he is making progress...yay!!!! I have to say that I truly, TRULY believe with my whole heart that our move is Gods plan for our family....it has to be...I just know it. And it is my faith in him, that we will be okay in our new chapter in our life. Okay...so now I am crying! So keep us in your prayers for our new journey!
