Can it be? 3?

Yep, it's been 3, count 'em, 3 years!  Wow.  They've just FLOWN by!  It's been an adventure, and I wouldn't change a second of it.  I feel incredibly blessed to have such a wonderful husband and an amazing marriage.  It hasn't always been lollipops and rainbows, but it's been pretty dang close. :)  I am so excited for the future.  I know we still have a lot of learning and growing to do, but I'm excited to do it together. 

I am the luckiest girl in the world.  I am married to the most perfect person for me. :) I am constantly amazed at how good my husband is to me.  I love him so much!

 Happy Anniversary #3!

Harsh Family Pictures

I took pictures of Chiya's cute little family today.  You've got to check them out HERE, they're beautiful! For Christmas they announced they are having a little boy in April!  We are so excited for them. :)

Happy New Year!

Cherish Me

I've opened an etsy shop and started a new blog where I will post the things I've been making.  It's still under construction, but stop by sometime and check it out! :)

I am really excited about all of this! Most of all, I am super excited about the name of my shop and that it wasn't taken!  I am usually HORRIBLE at coming up with names for stuff. In fact, I had another name, but I didn't like it so I didn't move forward on anything.  Then, the other day I was sitting in my kitchen working on projects and this name just popped in my head and I LOVE it!  Some day I am hoping it will be Cherish Me photography and designs... but we'll see.  I'll need a good camera first. :)

Nathan and Cheyenne

My little brother Nathan is getting married!  We are so excited for him.  He is marrying this super cute girl, Cheyenne Vance.

We went and took a couple hundred pictures the other day, so here are just a few. :) (this picture is my absolute favorite so far.)

Addicted...

It's official... I'm addicted to my new hobby! I needed some new material so I asked my sister to let me take some pictures of her family. She said yes. So, here are some photos I took and then edited. Trying to get the kids to smile at the same time was a challenge, but we got some. :)

















There's so much to learn, but I've gotten some of the basics down which makes the process go faster. It's kinda fun playing with the colors. Some of these pictures are a little bright, but I'm still experimenting. Trying to not wash out the skin tone has been the most difficult... but I think I'm getting it...
