The Secret is OUT!

I'm going to be an AUNT! I've been given the go ahead to shout it from the rooftops.

There are a million reasons why I've always wanted to be an aunt before I was a mom, but here are the best ones:

1) You get to spoil the kids and send them home for someone else to discipline them
2) You get to be their favorite person in the whole world (partly for the reason above)
3) You may actually have funds for buying nonsense items and frilly, frilly clothing. I've already spent about $30 on board books and stuffed animals
4) You plain old have more energy for them!

Needless to say, I'm figuring that whole baby picture thing out right about now and I can't WAIT until November!

Oh yeah, and it's going to be twins too :)

Sleep!

After three nights in a sleeping bag...

with the wind whipping the fabric until I thought it was going to cave in on us...

and rain...

and freezing cold...

I get back into a warm bed, with clean sheets, and walls, and I remember...

THIS is why I'm a City Girl!

Arches was gorgeous, though. See?

Spring Break!

YAY! This is SO needed!

Initially I planned to be flying out to Orlando to visit my mission. Of course, life happens (and so do car accidents).

The good news is that a friend from school planned out a trip to the arches. We will see how hiking with crutches is. Ha! Pictures to come!!!

Photography website/ facebook page!

I called my family at 6 in the morning (their time) to announce that I now have my own website. In my defense, I was extremely excited, on very little sleep myself, and knew they were usually up at that time getting ready.

There are still a couple more things I need to do (mostly adding links and writing a bio), but it's generally there. Curious to see?

Yay for new things!
