New Toy

So I know it's been awhile, but life happens - and I'm not about to tell it to slow down!

-

-

Just wanted to post an update about my new toy! I finally bought the camera lens I have been eyeing for the past year. It's a Canon 50mm that allows we to get an f/stop of 1.8! Woot woot! Bring on the blurry backgrounds! And because the only test subject around my house is four-legged and furry, here you go!

When I asked him to look fierce, this is what I got! Deer in the headlights. Oh well, focus on the blurry background, love it!

- Even though life has gotten overly busy, I promise that the projects ideas are still flowing. We will be finishing up the blue room soon and I will post all about it and the little DIY projects that are going into that room. We have a second guest room in the making. Also some bathroom repairs/updates. And big plans for the living room and dining room - new coat of paint (seen above are the choices we have narrowed down to), and some big makeover projects including the table project I mentioned HERE, a finished chest mentioned HERE, and a new exciting project that is finally coming together! - Stay tuned and Happy Tuesday!

Playing Catch Up

So the week got away from me, and I wanted to complete "Photo" Week. I had a great time last weekend taking pictures of my gorgeous sister and her boyfriend of two years, and my brother and his beautiful fiancé! It was a great family day, spent in Lake Benton. We felt privileged to find such wonderful locations in a town that none of us were familiar with.

Stay tuned for next week, where I am hoping to share some Before & After pictures!

Jackie & DaShawn - Family Photos

Last Saturday I had the chance to spend the afternoon and evening with Jackie and DaShawn. While I was there, we headed down to Falls Park to take some family photos of them. The little guy was is a super mood and did extremely well, I was very impressed. He continues to make my heart melt with those adorable cheeks and sweet eyes. Love you both!
