Wish I was Superwoman…

Some major catching up to do this week. Ohhhhh goodness! To start out, I FINALLY have internet all set up (Wohoo!!!!) and can now get back on track with emails and blogging, etc. I’ll admit, with having to move during the busiest time of the year and with a week long vacation coming up it has been hard. I know that I will be back in the groove of everything soon, but I’m coming to the point where I am beating myself up with everything on my plate. I will be making a huge list of things to do and start conquering it day by day so I can get to where I was before moving. 🙂 It just takes time and patience.

Just a note: I will be on vacation starting this Saturday, July 13th thru Thursday, July 18th as I will be heading to the BEACH! Wohoo! I have a couple sessions out there during my vacation time, but I am going to put in the time to blog postings (praying for free wifi!!!) and actually relax for one week of this year. I was considering to edit, email, etc. but I think I need to put all technology aside and enjoy the time with Kyle and his lovely family. 🙂 I wish I could be superwoman after all and work 24/7 … really though, I am just human. 😉

ALSO! I found out that I was nominated for this year’s Best of Warrenton in the category of Photography!!! To have seen all of the support already turned in has been so overwhelming and I appreciate all of you! 🙂 There is still time to vote if you wish to do so here:

Photography is number 31 and you do not have to vote for every category, although it would be nice to help out my fellow locals if you are familiar with the Warrenton area. Thank you all SO much!!!! xoxo

Here is everything I will be catching up in the next couple weeks! :)))

First of all, I will be holding a GIVEAWAY to any brides out there or future brides! So be on the look out for Wednesday’s post!
