one sad little neglected blog :(

Woah! Time flies when we're having fun, and I promise-- we are having fun soaking up every last minute of fall in Minnesota. I haven't blogged since Axel was newly born, and now in 4 short days, he will be 3 months old, yikes! And on that same day, Piper will be THREE years old. Wow.
Obviously a lot to catch up on over the last three months, but here's the deal. Three kids, a husband, and a house to manage every day leaves me with little time (or desire) to post a recap of what we are doing day to day on this blog. Because I'm too busy LIVING in those moments. So, this poor little blog has been neglected....But for good reason.
That good reason involves a new website. I've been toying around with the idea of photography for years. Really. This year I decided to go for it. To put myself out there and see where it leads me. I didn't just pick up my camera and decide to do this. I've been practicing, learning, investing, and have ideas/plans far beyond what I'd ever feel comfortable sharing out loud- except for maybe with Max :) Maybe I will follow through with all of those plans, or maybe I will just continue to dabble in this beautiful hobby casually, and that would be okay too. To make it clear: the only person I aim to compete with, is myself. I only want to see my own skills improve and that is what this entire journey is about for me. Challenging me, myself, and I :)  It's been a long time since I've been this excited about anything and it feels great. Along with that excitement (of course) comes a lot of fear, and negativity as well but I've chosen to surround myself only with those who I feel supported and inspired by. Anyone who doesn't fall into either of these categories, are welcome to take a hike! (But seriously though, the hiking around here lately is stellar- autumn in Minnesota is a gift from God!)  So, all in all, I'm not sure what the future holds yet, but I've had some pretty awesome clients to work with so far, and more upcoming in the next couple weeks that I am so excited about! If you want to see what I've been up to, join me over here!. At the very bottom of the page, you can subscribe with your email address to be sure to get updates of all new postings. :)
Happy fall, ya'll!
