Photography Business Goals | Personal

Good morning!  Can you believe that we are almost halfway into April and we had SNOW on Saturday!??!  What the heck haha!  Thankfully, the weather is going to get warmer as the week goes on and this makes me happy because I have a bridal session on Sunday!  Now that wedding season is in full swing, I need warm weather, especially for the outside weddings haha!  Speaking of weddings, I assisted Brian and Brandie from 180 Reflections this past weekend(see photo below, thanks Brandie!) and it was FREEZING!!  I felt so awful for the bride, groom and wedding party, but they were so patient during portrait time and we were all grateful for that!  Screen Shot 2016-04-11 at 11.06.48 AMPIN IMAGE

So…a little glimpse at what our week is looking like….Carter has his first baseball game this evening!  Good luck Carter!  It is also Carter’s last week of art and he has decided to take a break for a while…but he has really enjoyed it and his teacher always compliments on how well behaved he is and his good manners.  Kaleigh is finished with her gymnastics season and is thinking about getting back into it outside of school…not sure how I feel about that haha, we will see!  We are always on the run with sports, art, clubs, etc so I am looking forward to having a night or two where we don’t have plans and can be spontaneous!  We are hoping to do something fun on Friday or Saturday with the kids….suggestions??  I will be doing lots of cleaning, editing and working!  I also need to finish the hallway project so we can begin on the bathroom project!  We have been doing minor updates to a few rooms and its taking longer than I would like haha!  Below are the goals….
