All About Me | Wedding & Portrait Photographer, Sheboygan WI

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving...everyone in the US that is :D I also hope everyone not in the US had a great weekend as well. I had a fabulous 4 day weekend stuffed with good food and some shopping :D:D gotta love black Friday! and yes, we were some of the people that braved the pre-dawn and sub-arctic temperatures on Friday. All for what....a couple of hard drives. ha! well...ok, we didn't get JUST the hard drives but that was the real motivator. I did score some rather sweet deals. And Tucker, the dog, got a new bed out of it. Well...ok let me rephrase that...I bought Tucker a new, bigger, bed so the cat could sleep in the smaller not-so-tucker-sized bed. And do you think that is how it went?! ummm...no. 30 seconds after putting the bed on the floor Oswald looked at Tucker and said (well...if he could talk...) "hey...dog....outta that bed. it looks way comfier than this other one. move it." and what does Tucker do?? He MOVES. ugh. Dog. I would think that since Tucker is like 10 times the size of Oswald he would make Oz move. But.No. Goofy.Dog. If you would like to see a picture of these two characters...click here :) Sorry for the terrible quality of the picture...it was taken with my phone.

Now.

On to the reason for this post! 

Question #4 in my getting to know me series!

Question #4 is: What is your favorite book?

Now. Really. I have a lot of favorite books. Because I LOVE to read. I love to read just about anything. At least once. If I like I will re-read it...multiple times. So...on my list of books most read:

The Harry Potter Series

Twilight Series

The Horse Whisperer

In The Woods

The Da Vinci Code

Angels and Demons

The Last Symbol

And a whole slew of other books that I have read and have forgotten about :)

And...what is a blog post without a photo?!?! :D:D

What I am about to show you is the front page of my new site that we are working on! I am so excited to show you!! And I really can't wait to get everything moved over to the new site!!

Welllllllll....Happy Wednesday :D:D I

ts the middle of the week...and its kinda gross outside. The downside to fall...grey short days. Yes, as I write this...it is almost dark. And its only 440pm. sigh. But, that just means that the new year is that much closer! 

I figured it would be good to start in on that good ol' list of getting to know me again. If you missed the first few posts, you can check them out here, here and here.

So, this would be question numero tres. And for those that don't know spanish...number 3 :)

What is your favorite TV show?

And, really right off the bat lets get one thing straight. I probably have toooooo many of a lot of things. And yes, there are a bunch of shows that the mister and I watch. But I can honestly say that I have been a true fan of Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice. From. The. Beginning.

Yes folks this girl right here has tuned in every Thursday (and Sunday...because Grey's used to be on on Sunday nights after Desperate Housewives...oooohhhh yes.). 

It was funny because the in the last couple episodes one of the doctors on Grey's got to a grant to go to Africa and practice medicine there. The name...the Carter Madison grant. ok. cool. why does this matter??? Well...for those of you who used to watch the show 'ER' ....ummmm....helllloooooooo!!! John Carter was on ER and went to Africa himself and founded that grant! So...props to you...Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers for connecting those two shows together :D:D Did anyone else catch that??? 

And for those of you that I just put to sleep with that little minute of sure television genius...well, get over it. haha! kidding. kidding. I just get a little excited sometimes!

Let's see....other favorite shows...

Family Guy

Dirty Jobs

The Simpsons

Mythbusters

The Clevland Show

Brothers and Sisters

Anyway, now you know a little bit more about yours truely :) I hope you all enjoy the rest of your week!!

Happy Tuesday! I can't believe that it is the MIDDLE OF OCTOBER!!! Wow...fall is well on its way and winter is not far behind. PLUS only 7 months until our wedding!! :D:D And man do I have A TON of planning to do. Not that I am complaing....but I'm just sayin' :) 

So anyway, I thought it was time for another installment of "Getting to Know Me"

Question #2 on the list is: What is your favorite movie?

What instantly comes to my mind??

Sleeping Beauty

Oh yes...I went there :D

This has been my FAVORITE since I was...umm...3? 5? Ok, and I was totally going to say it was my favorite since it came out...buuuttttt I was totally NOT around in January of 1959. Needless to say I have watched this movie like 3543513287385138 times. Give or take one or two ;) When I was little I would watch it OVER and OVER and OVER. I'm pretty sure between Sleeping Beauty, the Little Mermaid and Cinderella I can recite just about all the lines!

Now don't get me wrong...I like plenty of other movies as well....here are some from the list:

The Nigthmare Before Christmas

Public Enemies

Sleepy Hollow

Blow

Chocolate

The Little Mermaid

The Holiday

Made of Honor

Cinderella

Marry Poppins

Jurassic Park (s)

Juno

Harry Potter (s)

The Sword and the Stone

Idiocracy 

and like 367 other movies :D

ok...maybe 367 is an exaggeration. but I think you get the picture ;)

yea...I like movies. Or, rather, we (Mike and I), like love movies. Action, drama, suspense, comedy. You name it we will watch it. At least once. twice if we like it :)

Getting to Know Me | Sheboygan County Wedding & Portrait Photographer

So, last week Tuesday I posted this post. All about getting to know me! Now...I am going to start conquering this list. And...I'm gonna be all cool and start with #1...What is your favorite song? 

And really...really??? How am I supposed to choose my FAVORITE. Because honestly I love music. Like love it so much that I basically have some kind of music playing. At. All. Times. But as of lately Paramore has definitely graced the top of my list of fav's. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that my sister, Kelly, and I went to see them in August. 

I'm just sayin'.

So, I suppose this is more like favorite music artist....but then again lately on my ipod you can find these artists:

Paramore (obviously)

Tegan and Sara

Enrique

Miley Cyrus

Usher

HelloGoodbye

Katy Perry

Bruno Mars

Hey Monday

AC/DC

Keith Urban

Billy Currington

David Guetta

Lady Gaga 

Kesha

The White Stripes

Led Zepplin

Taylor Swift

and...well...a whole bunch more lol

because, let's face it, who doesn't like to have a little dance party in their head while sitting at work jamming to tunes?!?!?! :D:D I know I do!

Happy Weekend!!

So anyway...like 30 blogs away from where I started from (side note...does EVERYONE have a blog these days?!?!) I found '30 questions about me' or something like that.
