New Camera = Better Blog

I'm so excited that my blog is now going to have WAY more pictures because I just got a amazing Canon t1i with a awesome lens, and I haven't stopped taking pictures since I got it Friday night. I went the Eli's 3rd Birthday party and got some great shots of the kids playing in the water and on the beach.

Some one with a mouthful of cupcake!!

The Birthday Boy & his Sweet Goggles



These two mean the world to me, I don't know what I would do without them.

I had a lot of fun On Saturday morning at Glennsfield Farm. I woke up around 7 and put my shoes on and went outside. Within a few minutes my Mom came out and joined, we took some great pictures and really enjoyed the last couple of hours we had together before the big move. The pictures turned out amazing. I'm glad I took a whole bunch so now if I get a slight bit homesick I can look at the pictures and feel a little bit more at home




Looking forward to all the memories I can capture!!!!!

The Big Move

I remember honestly like it was just yesterday when Faye and I were counting down for the move and it was at 23 weeks. We're now at 3 days and I'm so stressed I could just possibly pull my hair out.... Packing is so hard, especially when you have SO much stuff. I'm sitting her trying to figure out when I got so much crap and I realized I've always had it I just never used it.

The excitement inside of me is bursting out. It seem so surreal that in 72 hours I'm gonna be packing up and moving out. This is the first time in my life that things have so naturally fallen in perfect order. Every SINGLE part of the move. Okay, I'll explain.

1. The day I told Stephen and Faye I was dead set on moving down their and to find me a roommate just happened to be the day they were going to look for a new apartment.
2. Faye asked me what I was going to do for a job and I realized my company had two locations only 30 minutes away.
3.Two weeks before the move I hear of a big position becoming available at one of the locations that I'm extremely qualified for!
4. I need close friends in my life and I have so many people that I've meet through 4-H and I've grown up with that live in Blacksburg!!
5. I've always wanted to be a HOKIE!!!

With all of these things happening and taking place at this exact moment in my life how could I feel like this wasn't where I was supposed to be headed. My heart has fallen in love with Blacksburg.


Now I won't say that this will be a easy move for me... What 4 hour move is easy for anyone? But luckily with my company I have training every month in Richmond until November! So that'll give me at least two days of Family Bliss every month. But they're crazy if they could keep me away for longer than a month, I love those Wigs.. & how could I stay away from this adorable little girl?!?
