I have been married to my best friend for over 23 years and have made a lifetime of memories with him. I am a SAHM to three nearly grown children. I try to spend my 'spare time' creating and preserving memories using photographs, when not out making more memories!

only 45 more days until the wedding!!!

okay, that being said, i have only 28 more days to finish josh & leah's album!! my deadline is may 13... no excuses!!!

it has been crazy around here! we have the house torn up while we got two more floors refinished. we now have hardwood floors in the living room, foyer, dining room and david's office. we were hoping to get someone in here to skim coat the ceilings in the office & dining room and also drywall the office... i just want my house put back in order and cleaned!!! minor details...

so far 1 have 14 pages done on the album. i have got to kick it into high gear... david will be out of town for a couple of business trips coming up, i am going to scrap, scrap, scrap while he is gone. the weather has been so beautiful that we have tried getting out and enjoying it some, so while he is gone, i will knock out some of those pages!!

school is winding down for caiti and caleb... i know that they will be glad to get some time off. caiti is taking a 2-week required class monday-friday. then she will be off for the summer. both plan on working full-time, so life will be busy and chaotic around here.

the wedding will be here before long and then i will be a mother-in-law... we love josh's future wife and couldn't have picked anyone better for him. what a blessing to see your child(ren) follow God's plan for their life. as i am going through photos, it just doesn't seem that it has been nearly 23 years since josh was born... time has flown!!

today was a beautiful day. i spent the morning baking some homemade cookies and then packaged them up and delivered to some special people in my life... i hope that they enjoyed them as much as i did making them for them. i LOVE giving others surprises...

i hope that you are enjoying the springtime and spending time with those that you love... remember to take photos and capture those memories!!! and be grateful for every day, each day gives you the opportunity for renewal....
