You probably already saw on Sara's blog, but for Halloween, Fuzz was an elephant. I'd say she was a pretty darn cute one at that. She loved her costume and even made elephant noises. This year she was afraid of crazy face paint, and masks, but she was a fan of the candy! When we dumped out her bucket when we got back home she squealed and proceeded to dive right in.
Let me start at the beginning. For years it's been a dream for me to have a photography business. I loves babies and children, and I love capturing their huge innocent smiles, soaphawks in the bathtub, even their pouty faces when they don't get their way. Recently the dream has become more of a reality.
From the very beginning of the reality phase, I have said that I'm not going to do weddings yet. Weddings are a once in a lifetime thing and holy moly, I don't want to be the one to screw up wedding pictures. As you can see by the title of the post, all that is thrown out the window...
It's a special family situation, which is the only reason I agreed to do it. I'm nervous, but that's good. The nerves will push me to study study study, and organize organize organize. This could be either great, or horrible...
Eek!
The weather down here has been just superb the last couple days! I'm sitting here with the windows open, breeze just flowing through our house. It's great. I'm not sure if I've said it yet, but I really like it here. I've met some great people. We have great neighbors. The kind that come over to borrow aluminum foil, and watch Fuzz if I have an appointment. This is a first for me. I feel like we are home, and it's great.
It's been awhile! Since I've last written, Fuzz had a birthday! Can you believe she's two? Because I can't.
Right before I left Wisconsin to return to Hawaii, our computer died. I took it as a sign that I needed to get off my butt and start packing, so I just packed it up, and it came with us to Georgia. We took it in today to see what the damage was and I got a call this afternoon.
"Hello, Kiki? We had a chance to look at your computer this afternoon, and...it's not good news. The main board is dead, so...it looks like you'll be looking for a new computer." Yippee!! Another expense I was hoping to avoid.
We did go and pick out a new one, and let me tell you, I'm excited to get working in Photoshop again.
There is this girl who I went to high school with who still emails me from time to time. Here's the funny part. She only emails me when she has a military forward to send. Does anyone else have this? I think it's completely funny. Like, "ooh, I'll send this to Kiki, her husband is in the Army!" Does that count as supporting our troops? Sending mass emails that you know you just want to delete the second you see the "FW:" or even better, the "FW: FW: FW: FW: FW:...." you get the idea.
The farmers market was a little pathetic, only one farmer, but he was nice and had some beautiful looking produce. If it's any indicator of how good it was, Fuzz ate a WHOLE peach last nice in addition to her dinner! I don't know where that girl puts it. Sometimes I swear she eats more than I do. Although she's growing, and I'm hopefully...not.
I gotta admit, I'm pretty excited to go to the farmers market with Sara tomorrow! Are any of you farmers marketers? I think they are great. The produce always looks amazing, and you're almost always guaranteed a good story to take home. Once at the farmers market we went to in Hawaii there was a guy with a mohawk that must have been 18" high. Seriously, it was the biggest mohawk I've ever seen.
Stryker is heading out to the range tomorrow and may or may not have to stay overnight. I guess it will be a surprise whether he makes it home for dinner or not!
The Mrs. mom is so talented! She makes purses, wall art, and now little bags! In honor of her impending third little boy, she's hosting yet another giveaway, and I missed the last couple, so I'm not missing this one! Go check it out!
Picture this. I'm in the kitchen, browning chicken for dinner tonight. It's smelling good, I start to flip the first batch, as a drop of oil spits out of the pan and lands right on my eyelid.
Talk about a close call.
Anyone else have a scary kitchen mishap?
In pursuit of my career in photography, I got a new baby yesterday.
So far, I love it! I am still learning some of the things on it that are different on my old camera, but I'm excited. Here's one of my first pictures on it. 
The greatest part is that shirt is from my mom. The grandma who thinks that Fuzz can do no wrong.
Yeah, I was the mom who made her sit as if she was in time out so I could take a picture of her in her time out shirt.
