Let's See..

Today was a pretty good day. My nieces are having a big birthday party on Saturday. They have not had a party with their family in more than 5 years, because they live out of state. So, my mom and I made sure that they were going to have a blast. We let them pick the theme, they picked a western theme--cowboys and cowgirls. We've made them, I should say I, made them little cowgirl outfits. Chaps and a vest. We bought the chaps, but I added fringe to get the full affect. I got blisters on my hands, leather & suede tooling is rough! I made them little vests to match their boots & chaps. Kayla's is orange & black, Hayley's is pink & brown. I'm currently working on putting together some games and decorations. I'm making 3 cakes--2 boots (one each for the birthday girls) and a horse shoe. Plus 50 cupcakes, with cowboy hats on them. Hah, have I got my work cut out for me or what? And the party is Saturday. I know they will, but I really hope they enjoy it. One day when they are older I want them to look back at it and think of me. I always put alot of time and love into their gifts. I'm going to the party as a bandit. You know I can't just be a plain ol' cowgirl. haha. Ryan & Xavier are our sheriffs. haha. It should be a good time. We've got rattle snake toss (a mix between hot potato and musical chairs), a dual area (where the kids can shoot water guns at each other to squash their beef. lol), and we are letting them all pick their "old west name", that should be fun! and a Gold Rush pit where we are putting pennies in sand so the kids can really believe that they are rich. lol. But, yes I am excited, and I hope they are too.
I'm shooting more and more photos now. I just did my first baby portraits. Hah. HHHARRDDD is all I have to say. lol. I can't wait to get my studio up and started, that will make things SO much easier for me.
Until next time,

Peace && Love.

I Think I have ADD

when it comes to life. I'm such a busy body. Well, no long Wilmington. They are offering to pay me a shit ton of money to go there, well take it off of my tuition, but I just really don't want to go there, so I've decided I'm not going to. I'm going to go to NKU online, like before. I've also enrolled in beauty school, Regency Beauty Institute, to do hair. There's so many things I want to do, so I'm going for it.
As much as I'm all over the place, I'm so happy at this point in my life. I feel like I'm chasing all my dreams, and preparing my future life & family. I'm setting me and them up for pure sucess. And I'm having fun while doing it.
I have the most supportive husband. I love him so much. He knows I'm a free spirit and he doesn't ever try to keep me grounded, he's always letting me sore. I love that about him. I don't think there's anyone else in the crazy world, that could handle me. I hope he knows how much I appreciate him. =)
I got a new tattoo today, the inside of my arm done. This sleeve is going to be complete before I know it! Thank God! It's a character of Henry David Thoreau. Absolutely amazing! Love it. He's all done. My Rosie will be finished one day, Dara wasn't in to her today, which is hilarious, because she's always yelling at me saying I can't start anything until all my other work is done, it was all her this time though! lol.
So, I'm doing a million things right now, and loving it. I'm so thankful for my awesome friends and family. That's all, untill next time

Peace && Love

Ready 2 Bounce.

So, has any 1 told you yet? Ryan and I are moving to Tennessee. Not anytime like soon, but within the next year and a half. Preferably, next summer. I will do online school through NKU, that way I won't have to drop out & transfer, or wait until classes are over. So, cool. I'm so ready to leave, like today. But, we have some stuff we need to do, ya know like save mass money, and sell our house. But, yeah, that's our plan. And I haven't said anything about it because we weren't for sure for sure, but now we are. My mom has already said she'd go with us, which I'm so happy about, idk if I could live without my mom! lol!

Graduation is on Saturday. And I still don't feel like it's a big deal. I'd hoped it would be something I would be proud of, but that hasn't hit me yet. I just don't think of it as worthy of anything too special. Blah.

I got my hair cut again. A super inverted bob. I can't wait to get it cut shorter, but to keep those stupid grad hats on I had to have some hair! haha. It's also light again! Like an auburny redish color. Finally after 2-3 years of dark brown-black hair, I'm light again. I'm in love with it. So thanks to my Whitney! She's my new hair dresser =)

Speaking of her, I'm shooting photos of her tomorrow. Trying to build my portfolio. So, let's hope there is no rain! If not we're going to have a girls day. But, I'm pretty stoked about shooting her.

I start back to work on Thursday. Tuesdays & Thursday, 6hr days. But, whatever. I am also working on packing up the house, and painting it all back white again. =/ no fun at all.

Ummm...I think that's all I have for right now. I'm super tired. Until next time,

Peace && Love.
