Manic Monday | Photography Business Goals

Good morning!  I hope everyone had a great weekend!  Is anyone else freaking out that there are only 18 days until Christmas?!?!  We just now got our tree up and I still havent finished decorating, let alone started Christmas shopping!!  I guess I should put that on the to-do list for this week! 😉

A little recap from last week….Carter was sick on Friday so I spent the day at home.  One thing I didn’t anticipate doing but SO glad that I did was cleaning out and organizing our pantry and refrigerator!  This is something that I have been needing to do for a long time now and being home all day gave me the perfect excuse! 🙂  I love going into the pantry and fridge and seeing how great it looks and I am determined to keep it this way!  Now if I can just catch up on laundry and KEEP up with it!

Carter had his first basketball game on Saturday!  He did great, but when I asked him if he had fun he replied, “I know its not about winning or losing its about having fun, but I just got irritated because we lost.”  Poor guy!  Hopefully next week’s game is better!  We went out to lunch after and then headed to Windy Knoll Farm to pick out our tree!  The kids were excited to get home and decorate it.  I think one of their favorite parts of decorating the tree is looking at the ornaments and remembering the significance of each ornament that they made or that was bought for them in years past.

We took it easy on Sunday and didnt do much of anything.  I really wanted to go to the Bethlehem Walk this year(we missed it last year) 🙁 but by the time I got out of the meal prep party I attended it was too late to try to make it.

Below is a sneak peek from Lee and Ellen’s engagement session!  I am so excited to be working with them during this next year and can’t wait for their wedding in October!
