Wow...Where Have I Been???

Oh my goodness!!  It was July the last time I wrote anything of importance!!  I am SO sorry!!!  The rest of the summer got away from me...and apparently so did the beginning of Fall!  But I'm hoping to get back on track.  Please forgive me for my absence!

The summer got away from me for several reasons.  The first being the my boss...the director of the daycare I am the assistant director at...went on maternity leave.  She had her second baby.  An adorable baby boy! 


That's him the day he was born! 



Here is in at the beginning of Sept!

And this is him with his 3 year old big sister!

Isn't he precious??  So for 8 weeks, Christina was on maternity leave.  Now, I've done this before so I wasn't as nervous but still...I knew it wouldn't all be easy.  Plus I was getting ready for my amazing friend Sarah's wedding that was at the beginning of September.  So things were just busy!!!  But a good busy.  And in the middle of all of the crazyness, Tera got to come back for a few days to visit and it was so good to see her!!   

We had a Wedding Shower for Sarah and Destry towards the end of August.  Fall session at daycare started right around then too.  Our church was in the Labor Day parade here and that was fun! (And cold!)  I got to drive the float.  Scary!



That's our LARGE water bottle.



And this is everyone on the float after the parade was over and I was driving us back to where it all started.  Yeah...Imagine driving that thing down main streets with all of those people on the back and in the van.  Scary!!! 

Then Sarah's wedding day was Sept. 10 and she was beautiful!!!  (And Destry was quite handsome himself!)



Here's one of the pics of the wedding party.  I love this pic!!  It was so wonderful to see Sarah finally get to marry the man she's been praying for!  And because they live pretty close, I get to see her more often!  That makes me happy!!!

I spent the majority of that day getting ready for Sarah's wedding and being a part of her special day.  Then right after her reception ended, and I made sure her and Destry were in their truck and off for their first night together as a married couple (hee, hee), I hopped into the Deidramobile and headed to another reception!  One of our girls from work got married that day as well and I wanted to make sure I got to spend a little time at her reception as well. 



That's the other beautiful bride, Brandi, and our co-worker Gayle.

It was a super busy day but beyond beautiful day. 

Christina came back on Sept. 19.  I do think I was the happiest person at work!!!  I turned 33 on Sept. 20.  I was hoping things would slow down some but they never did.  It's just been busy.  Lots of things going on at work.  And that's really what's taking up the majority of the time.  I did get the chance to take some senior pics of my friend's daughter.  I still need to take some more but I'm sure it won't take long.  She's beautiful!



Things really haven't slowed down but that's ok.  I'm hoping to update the blog some more...and not get so behind!  I have a book review to do as well so maybe that will happen later on this weekend.  I know...this was a very quick update of everything and I probably could have included a lot more details but I'll save that all for another day!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful summer and I pray you're enjoying the fall!  It's quite windy here today but I'm going to head out soon to see Keagen play some flag football!  Then it's back home for OSU football!  (We're struggling a little this year but I'm still a big fan!)  GO BUCKS!

New Year, New Me

New year, new me. Who says that? Ok, a lot of people so no offense if you’re one of them.  But I like me. Sure, I’m not perfect. But I don’t want to really change all of me.  So no silly quote like that for me! It is hard to believe that 2019 is here. The older I get, the quicker time flies by.  I do remember being told that when I was a teenager.  Those people were so right.  It feels like yesterday that I was sitting in my quiet house while Johanna was off with friends celebrating the start of 2018.  But that was a year ago.  Today, I’m still sitting in my quiet house but that’s because Karyna is just waking up for the day.   A few years ago, I used to work on videos that would highlight my year.  I loved doing them but they took time.  And that’s time that I don’t have as much of these days.  It’s hard to go through a year of pictures and videos.  Do you know how many pictures I take a year?  My goodness!...

Friday Follow

How come when it's time to do the Friday Follow, I have nothing interesting to say??? Hmmmm...it's been a long week.  Days where things just didn't make sense.  Lots I need to process.  It's possible that all of my thinking will lead to a great post this weekend.  But for now, I just hope all of you new visitors find something interesting to read from other posts here.  I plan to spend this rainy weekend doing some thinking, relaxing, watching movies and checking out new blogs!  Sounds like a good way to spend the weekend, right?  :-)  Thanks for stopping by!

New Cards!!!

So between resting this weekend (cause my allergies kicked my butt...especially yesterday), I worked on making some cards.  It's been SO long since I've actually spent time doing something like this and I LOVE making cards!  So I wanted to share them with you.  I made 20 cards total.  2 each of 10 designs.  So now there's two sets of friendship cards.  I think I'm going to try to sell one set.  Then I think give the other set away.  I'm just not sure how.  Any ideas?  I'm thinking if you leave a comment about the cards you'll be entered to win.  If you buy one set of cards, you'll also be entered to win.  Hows that sound?
