Thanksgiving Day!

Thanksgiving day was rather relaxing! We slept in, Robert made french toast, then we started to get ready. I gave all the kids a bath and then Audrey and I painted our nails a matching color. Once we were all ready we drove into Anchorage for our Thanksgiving meal. We went to a restaurant called Simon and Seaforts that is located right on the bay(it is called the Knik Arm). It was beautiful. The one pic we got you can't see the bay since it was already getting dark. They had the inside decorated for Christmas and looked gorgeous! Then we drove home and decorated the house ourselves. After that it was time for our Christmas pics! All in all it was a wonderful day but it went to quickly. I hope and pray you all had as wonderful a day too!

My first client!

Here are just a few of the poses I did with my first client last night. We had so much fun and they turned out nicely. I am really excited since I have my 2nd sitting tonight! I absolutely love doing engagement pictures! I am so happy to be able to make money doing something I am so passionate about. It seems like I could get really busy pretty quick. There have been a lot of positive responses to those who have been informed to take a look at my website! I really feel the Lord has led me into this and that he is and will continue to bless. I want to thank all of you who have been so encouraging with my new venture. You all have been a tremendous support and encouragement. I love all of you!!!

New Additions to our Family

I have wanted a Shih tzu dog for quite sometime. This weekend we came across 2 of them that were free on cragislist. Our intent was to get one of them. When I called they had informed me that they were already gone. They had left that morning. I was so disappointed about it. Later I received a phone call from the owner of the dogs saying the person who picked them up were bringing them back and wanted to know if I wanted them. I wasn't wanting 2 dogs at first but the owner wanted them to stay together since they had been together since birth. So needless to say we now have 2 dogs named Cookie and Muffin. The larger one is Muffin. They came with a kennel and bowls and the pink vests. They love the kids and the kids love them. I was worried how they would do last night so I put them in their kennel and they slept fine all night long. Today they both received baths and a good combing. Cookie loves a bath but Muffin prefers to not have one but doesn't fight it. Muffin loves the kennel and has been sleeping in it off and on all day. Cookie has been my shadow and seems to be making Muffin jealous. All I have to do is say "Where's my babies" and they both come bounding towards me and shoving each other wanting to be rubbed. They seem quite comfortable here and we are enjoying them.
