Summer is wrapping up and it is getting crazy busy. We always spend the last few weeks of Summer getting ready for the new school year. Yesterday I spent all day at the mall buying new school clothes and shoes and it looks like today will be a repeat of that. We haven’t received our new schedules yet along with the mammoth supply list, so that will mean yet another trip to the store. By the time August 14th gets here I’m exhausted and broke!

Last week I took my cherubs out to grab some updated pictures of them. We hit the streets one humid evening and spent 30 minutes taking pictures. It is so amazing how much they have changed since last year! I’m often so busy taking pictures of other people that I forget to document my every day life and my kids. I feel like I take pictures all the time, and I do, but as I searched my hard drive for a recent picture of my youngest I realized that there were none. Thankfully we were able to get a great photo and I’m ordering a large canvas. She has changed the most. Just yesterday we stood back to back, with no shoes on, and she was as tall as me. I’m 5’7, she’s 12. Suddenly I’m almost the shortest one in the family. That has never happened before! I’m taller than all of my friends and only one of my sisters is taller than me. It’s a weird feeling.

I have an exciting August lined up! Next week I have 4 sessions that I’m looking forward too. Once school is back in session I will get back on schedule. I love schedules and predictability! It’s time to get geared up for senior season and Fall family pictures. I love this time of year!! If you’d like to schedule your session, contact me and we’ll get you on the books. I look forward to hearing from you
