vacation

Happy August!

Happy August!

Around here, August is full of excitement! In the next few weeks we will celebrate Tommy's birthday, we'll be one month closer to fall (trail running race season, wedding season part II, and family portrait season), we will go on vacation (10 days! Our longest vaca ever!), and right now... well... it's potty training month. Yikes! 

A little glimpse...

A little glimpse into the first half of our weekend... camping... running... hiding from the rain. The trip started out beautifully and ended wet, dark, and freezing. But Tommy had a victory... getting his first PR in the Promiseland 50k race. Sunday and I got up with him to see him off and then met him around the halfway point to encourage him a bit. And of course we were there at the finish line to greet him. He did it! I'm so proud of him!!

Out of the office | Lynchburg Engagement Photographer

Okay guys, this week has been exhausting. I didn't have a phone for two days, drove to Staples about 6 times in those two days (ended up with my prints mounted for free + $$ off an external hard drive. whew! patience is rewarding sometimes), my hairdresser cancelled my hair appt and I didn't have a phone to get the news OR to reschedule before this weekend. Lost 1/2 my contacts in the Sprint debacle of 2010. The list goes on. Crazy! But who cares! It's Thursday and my weekend starts RIGHT NOW! I am leaving on a jet plane to go visit my man in New Orleans. This will be our last rendezvous until much later this year, so I am really excited! Before I go, I wanted to give one of my favorite couples a quick sneak peek of their lifestyle engagement session from last weekend. It doesn't even look like winter in these photos, does it? I told them they looked like they stepped out of a J. Crew catalog. Wouldn't you agree?

I'll be back next week and will return all phone calls and emails as quickly as possible.
