Catching Up

What an amazing and BUSY weekend! Went from taking a weekend off to a full packed schedule. Those weekends off are exactly what I need to catch up, especially when I have weekend after weekend similar to this one. Today, is another catch up day as I will be editing a session, wedding and catching up with emails from this weekend … along with two client meetings and a date night with my man! šŸ™‚ Excited!!! We are approaching our one year very soon and decided that we need more nights off TOGETHER! šŸ™‚ So I was excited that we can make this happen tonight. I’ll be productive until then to make sure I have the night off! šŸ™‚

My weekend started out amazing as the weather could not have been more PERFECT for Matt and Shannon’s wedding day Saturday! SO excited to share more!!! šŸ™‚
