Gifts Galore!

Whew, I tell you what... self-hosting a blog is not a fun thing to do. I *think* I finally have everything ready, but I have to wait 7-10 days for it to go live. That is what Alonzo, my new "help" friend, told me. We will see how that goes.

I did a shoot a couple of weeks ago with the Eppley girls that I have ready to post on my new blog. Hopefully it will be up and running so everyone can get caught up with some of my shoots. I did post some of the pictures on my Facebook Page, so check out the photos there.

Let me catch you up on my life...

We have been trying to grow grass in our yard, what a pain in the hinderman.

Jacob and I have discovered a beaver that lives in our neighborhood. Benji, the beaver. I saw him just the other day frolicking around in the grass on the skirts of a forest.

On another note, I feel very blessed by the people around me who know what I love and keep blessing me with gifts. Ruth, who I talked about in my last post, gave me a lot of blue mason jars just because she knew I loved them.

Scott and Jacob got me a couple of cameras from the 1950's just because they knew I was starting a collection for my office space.

I got a letter from Katie, one of my best friends and roommate in college, all the way from Africa! She has been there for almost a year spreading the great news of the Gospel with college students there.

Flossie, Jacob's mom, helped us buy some rocking chairs for our front porch so that we can finally spend time out there enjoying the straw that isn't really turning into grass.

And then my parents took us out for dinner the other day at Jacob's favorite place, Moe's.

Wow, so many blessings in my life.

Oh yes, Jacob got a new car. He got rid of his "woman vehicle" as he called it and got something more "manly." And if it there was light by the car, I would take a picture of that at night as I did everything else.

Well, I'll catch you later!
