...Charmi...Session 2 continued...

 

On Monday, I a sneak peek of Charmi's 2nd Senior Portrait Session. I meant to blog more on Tuesday...but tomorrow always goes so fast! I missed Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday! We have had so much going on and I plan to blog all about it in the next few days. Don't hold your breath, but know that I really am going to try! :)

Charmi, is as you may know  one of our Senior Reps. We did a shoot with her in the summer and we did another one now that she is officially a SENIOR! Charmi is quite busy. She was just voted Home Coming Queen. She is the Senior Class President and she still finds the time to  rodeo!

 

Congratulations Charmi! Hope your Senior Year is wonderful! We wish you all the best in your future!

Thank you,

...Ronnie and Nikolett...

Sunday, Ray and I travel to the Sacramento area to shoot a wedding. The bride, Nikolett and I had been communicating for a few months via email. Meeting Nikolett for the first time was as if I had known her forever. She and her mother Eva were wonderful! So welcoming and warm. Nikolett had fabulous (not to mention HOT) attendants. Her girls were very attentive and helpful. They took care of every last detail. Before the ceremony began she requested to see her father and brother. Once they came in she said “I am good now, I saw my boys”.  It was obvious that Nikolett and her family are extremely close. Her father was the first to tear up as the ceremony was to start. Eva told me that Nikolett is there only girl and that they wanted the day to be whatever Nikolett wished for. She also made the beautiful veil that Nikolett wore.  As we were waiting for the guests to be seated and the ceremony to begin, all Nikolett wanted was to walk down the aisle to her groom.

The wedding was held at the beautiful Arden Hills Resort. Faren, a wedding coordinator at Arden Hills did a fantastic job of keeping the day organized and smooth. The gorgeous flowers and centerpieces were done by Sandi Allcut and her husband.

One funny side note- just before the walking down the aisle, the news came that there was not any music with the wedding march for Nikolett to walk  to…That was not a problem…the groomsman hummed the tune for her as she strolled down the aisle. It was very touching!

 

Nikolett and Ronnie- I wish you both the very best in life! Thank you so much for entrusting us to document one of the most important days of your lives!

...Seriously Deliquent...

Again, time seems to have gotten away from me! I cannot believe it has been so long in between posts!  I will make this a personal post and update with work stuff on Monday...

We have been so busy lately- with work and at home...

Hannah Beth is playing soccer,  is in SSA @ school,  and is part of  three different 4H clubs! Try to fit all of that in with normal everyday things like riding horses, reading, talking with friends and homework!

Connor Ray is busy , too. He is playing flag football and is in two 4H clubs. He plays catch, rides his bike, plays with Lego's and cars and then has homework!

Ray is working all the time and then comes home and does projects around the house. In the last few weeks he has run electricity to our tackroom, put up outside lights and indoorr lighting. Built shelves for the boys "workroom". Recreated some lamps by cutting and painting them. Glued misc. items that broke in the move. Moved the horses pens around. Stacked and covered hay (his favorite). Used the blower to clean up around the house. I appreciate each thing he has done and hope he knows it! I love to see him working around the house again and enjoying it! :)

I have been doing sessions, proofing and getting orders out. Ray and I are doing the yearbook again this year. I became a 4H Cooking Club leader and LOVE it! In my spare time I take the kids to their events and work in the classroom! We have also been going to church on a more regular basis and I am so thankful!

 I have been trying to be diligent about the gym and it payed off last month I lost 3.5% body fat! I reached the goal that our trainer set in July! I have to say that I am glad I did the measurements! I did not realize how much progress I had made this month and would have never known had I not had them! Thank you Ginger for pushing and dragging me all the way!

I will be posting some portraits from an awesome wedding that we are doing this weekend and some specials on Monday!
