Way Behind

I am WAY behind on posting to my blog lately and I apologize to those of you who check in on a regular basis. I have, as usual, taken on trying to do way too many things and this time of the year is crazy enough as is. I will be making an effort to get caught up some here and there in the next week or so, so please scroll through or check my archives for older posts I may have snuck in there that you missed.
Thanks for reading my little online journal and don't be afraid to leave me comments (nice ones, though, as I don't like meanies. :-))

Showering Hannah with Love and Daisies

Today I helped host a bridal shower for my good friend Hannah. She is getting married in October, in Myrtle Beach, to our childhood friend, Kyle. David and I are both in the wedding and we are very excited...should be tons of fun!

We had the shower at my house and all the bridesmaids helped out. We had tons of yummy food and lot of Sangria to go around. Hannah got some really nice gifts and I think she had a good time at her party.

Congratulations Hannah and Kyle! We can't wait to be a part of the big day (or should I say week?)!

Martin Family Beach Photo Session

On our last night of vacation, I did a little photo shoot on the beach for my brother and sister-in-law and their girls. I am, by no means a professional photographer, but I have a great love for taking pictures and a really nice camera (thank you to my loving and generous hubby!!) and I am always snapping photos of everyone, so I was glad to do it. I have often thought of fine-tuning some of my camera skills and taking pics on the side, but who has time for all that with a one year old and a full-time job?? Maybe some day, right?? :-)

I am really proud of how most of the pictures turned out and hope Julie, Brian, Kayla and Jillian will enjoy them for years to come.

Here are some of my favorites...

Just for Fun

I found a fun little quiz today when I was checking out someone else's blog and the result of the quiz tells you what part of spring you are (I don't know, it was just fun). :-) Click on the link at the bottom of the post to take the quiz yourself (it's only 4 or 5 questions)! Here are my results (they are fairly accurate!)...

You Are Baseball Games

You like old fashioned things. You're one of those people who values tradition. You enjoy a slow pace of life. You believe that life is all about enjoying every moment. You love the changing of the seasons, and you look forward to what each season brings. You are smart and a bit obsessive. You become very immersed in your interests.

What Part of Spring Are You?
