Chill day

After sleeping in and getting our fix of Once Upon a Time fulfilled, we made some breakfast with my mom (she had taken off work-- yippee!)

Poor Jack didn't believe we weren't going to give him any of our food because we ate it all.

I then got to take the 3rd Annual photos of Johanna's family. (3rd, right?) These kiddos are growing up so much! I can't believe it. They are so funny and sweet. It was pretty chilly but they all had really good attitudes and ideas. Loved it.

This was my favorite picture.

 I started off writing on the chalkboard but then the kids each took a turn writing whatever they wanted. It was funny.

 I love everyone's expression in this one.

 Buddy and Abby

 She was cracking me up all day.

 Lexi was not afraid of the cold. I think I have the most pictures of her because she was willing to run around everywhere with me.

Jack and I finished up the night trying to get a good picture to send Katie on her birthday. Then Chrissy and I headed to my Grandma's (about 1.5 hours away) so that we could cook in the morning. We were going to have Thanksgiving at Chrissy's house but my grandma isn't allowed to drive anymore so we brought the party to her. So glad we did.

Photoshoot

I love my job and the people I work with ;)
It's coming upon the one year mark for a lot of our team members so we're coming into familiar territory since at least one person has done this part of the year before. I've almost been here for 8 months but it's cool to look back and see how far our team has come.

Since a lot our team members our new, we are still catching up with projects. So even though it's summer, we're still busy. Last Friday however, since we had been so productive last week, we got to work on a project for our own department. It was so refreshing to be the boss and get to decide where our project was going. Kelly and I came up with concepts and content and then had our photographer, Jer, do a photoshoot of us so we could use the pictures in the book. Here's some pictures from the shoot. Kelly is getting married in 29 days so she happened to have photo booth props at the office.

We were trying to put glasses on each other and I forgot she was so short hehe

We love the mustache ones.

I don't have a nose in this one... oops 

I'll have to show you guys how the guide book is coming next week and explain more about our project.
Happy Weekend!

Engagement Photos

Adam came 2 weeks ago and I got one of my friends to take our photos so that we could save some money. I think they turned out very well. I put most of the good ones on Facebook so I don't want to repeat all of them but here are some ones I didn't put up.

We think we're funny.

These laughs are real.

We're getting married. Can you believe it?

Just dancing in the street like that old Mo-town song.

We like to be different and funny. We at least crack ourselves up.

Hope you have a wonderful day. Both Adam and I have interviews today so just pray that God would open up the right doors for us. Also Thanksgiving is only 2 1/2 weeks away. I can't believe it!! I'm so excited to see my family.

Halloween and photo shoots

If you came to Starbucks on Monday, this is what I would have looked like serving your drink or pastry to you. I love holidays. I'm hoping we get to dress up for Thanksgiving and Halloween too. haha.

This Halloween, I went with the Ellsworths to Treats on Main. All the local businesses handed out candy and had fun games for the kids to plain all up and down Main Street. It was so cute. So many awesome costumes that I wish I could have captured to show you all. I saw i phones, a deck of cards (dad-king, mom- queen, baby- joker, other kids- A, 2), pumpkins, and other adorable costumes.

This is who I went with. The cute little puppy and the beautiful Belle.

Sawyer took his costume dressing up very seriously. He was always in character ;)

This was an adorable little clown. I couldn't resist.

My computer finally got fixed (thanks to multiple people and Apple ;) and I finally got to put my pictures from my camera onto my computer. I noticed that Addy has gotten to be my model over the last month a lot more than I realized.

I've wanted to do this picture for a while. I saw the idea off of pintrest.

She was showing me her moves haha

News

I hope to put up pictures of Halloween later this week. Just having trouble since my computer is down and I don't have a card reader. Until then enjoy this picture. Sarah, the other girl who lives in the basement with me, took this photo of me. We had a lot of fun setting this up and taking it. Hopefully, we'll do other fun photo shoots.

My job opportunity called. I have a call conference with the VP of University Relations on Monday at 4. Prayers would be appreciated. Thanks!!
