Lately. | Personal | Sheboygan Wedding & Portrait Photographer

well, howdy!

I know, things have been pretty quiet on the blog lately.

life has been pretty crazy lately.

and honestly...I can't believe...IT'S NOVEMBER.

seriously...where did the year go?

I feel like I say that every year.

but every year I feel like time gets a little bit faster :(

sometimes I want to just freeze time for a hot minute and never have to move forward

the best part is that lately its been like 60* outside.

amazing.

having these temps this time of year...makes me really not want the winter to come. 

I like mid-50's & 60's :)

so, in reality this post is really just me checking in...

to let y'all know that I have some awesome posts coming up

because I have had some of the most amazing couples & families to take photos of over the past few months :D 

anndddd I am SOOO excited for 2012!

so many possibilities and opportunities!

I seriously cannot wait to see where and what this next year brings :)

check back soon for some wedding, engagement, and family goodness!

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!! 

Click on the picture to make it bigger!

I am curious to know what everyone thinks! So, leave some comments to let me know if you like it!

Getting to Know Me | Sheboygan County Wedding & Portrait Photographer

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!!
