Eric and I hiked up a hill near our home and we were able to watch a couple firework shows from our spot on the hill. Since it was dark we didn’t discover the ant hill we put the tripod on top of until I felt them crawling on my foot! Yikes! I blame Eric. […]

Sunday Randomness: A bit of me.
Mason jars and burlap are a couple staples of life for me right now. Sunday’s are a bit more relaxing for us than the rest of the week and usually consist of church and me/us time. Since most Sunday’s are when I’ve got a little more personal free time I usually end up browsing through […]

I have been contemplating this post for the past couple weeks as recently I’ve heard some very sad stories from brides about their wedding photographs.

There’s something about the lights, music, manger scenes, busy stores, hot cocoa and cool air that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
