Whats the word to describe having a very, very, very busy life but having nothing to blog about? Oh yeah, I'm there.

Puppies to dogs to nasty
My beautiful little babies are all grown up now. *Sniff sniff* They are so grown up now that they get into nasty things. These nasty things tend to have other nasty things on them and then my dogs think it's cool to get the little nasty things that other nasty things leave behind. I can't even say it.... nope. It's like my dirty little secret, my little secret that my beautiful little babies forced on me and their dad. Ok, I think I can get it out, this nasty little detail I'm leaving out, the nasty little detail that's leaving everyone wondering what the devil I'm talking about.
My dogs.... have fleas.
OOOhhhh, who knew a sentence could be so embarrassing! Oh my gosh. Nasty nasty nasty! You can't even fathom how disgusted I am by that. Why oh why couldn't we have a Fleet Farm in my tiny town so I could run right over there and get some flea shampoo, flea powder, Frontline and about everything with FLEA REMOVAL written all over it. Nasty, nasty, nasty.
I thought I was done with nasty blood sucking vermin for the year... I guess not.

Senior Photos
It's about that time again, that time where all photographers get to photograph the smiley, happy faces of new seniors. Seniors who are so excited for their last year of high school, these photo sessions being one of the first steps toward being done. I remember mine quite well. I looked like a little kid in mine. I think after I graduated high school, I really became more comfortable with myself and therefore grew into myself more.
Tiffani has been my only senior thus far but hopefully I can get a couple more. I really like taking senior photos.
A. They are very easy photos to take and you can generally get the personality of the senior pretty well involved in the photos.
B. You have so many options for backgrounds. Inside, outside, formal, informal, portrait, artistic, etc...
and C. well, I just like them, OK!
Tiffani was very fun to work with. She was not shy and was very good about putting in her input. Her mom and her brother came along with her and was helping to get a "natural" smile. I just LOVE red hair. I love how it pops out in photos and in real life. Here are some of my favorites.

Wedding Extravaganza
This weekend was a V.E.R.Y busy weekend for me. It was a wedding, wedding, wedding extravaganza! Haha. Not really but I did have 2 weddings. On Saturday, Max's sister Faith got married. It was a beautiful wedding. Everything about it was great. The weather turned out gorgeous, the bride was gorgeous, the bridesmaids looks gorgeous, the groomsmen looked spiffy and the groom was very handsome.
I had just found out on Thursday that I was the main photographer which was a surprise. I was originally an "usherette" who was bringing her camera for practice but ended up taking photos of everything but the groomsmen photos. (She had another couple cousins taking photos also) So, I had a full day of directing, hollering for order, asking for a redo, and hauling around my camera. :)
We started our day early and got home around 1030pm. We left early because I had Nikki's wedding on Sunday which was up in Two Harbors so we had to get up early again and drive 3 hours north. Woke up around 6am left at like 7am and got the show on the road. Max slept the whole way up there, jerk. We were both super tired.
Nikki's wedding was very pretty. It was very small and private. They were hoping to get married on the beach up by Split Rock but it was raining so they had the ceremony in one of the buildings on the State Park property. I did all the formal stuff in the building but waited until after we ate to take more of the bridesmaids and groomsmen photos. It was still raining and was FREEZING but ended up clearing up in the middle of our photo session so we got some good ones!
After the wedding, we went to visit Max's Great Grandma Violet in Superior whom I've never met before. She's the cutest old little lady with a heck of a mouth on her! I don't mean that in a mean way at all, I just mean she was a talker :) She told some great stories! Grandma Violet is 95 years old, lives on her own, cleans her house and cooks for herself still. She has no cane and refuses to go into a care center while her head "is still on straight". She was super cute and I'm so glad I finally got to meet her.
We drove home and got back around 8. Played with the dogs a bit who missed up desperately and hit the sack! Max and I were both so so so tired!
That was my weekend in a nutshell. There are other things I could say about it but I'm starting to forget what I've talked about and what I haven't and plus I should probably be working now ;)
Life is still incredibly busy for me but I will try to keep up on writing but don't worry! I read every one's blogs still at work and LOVE the distraction!

Mason Jar
My favorite glass to drink out of broke tonight. Doesn't everyone have a favorite glass? A favorite bowl? Favorite fork? I know you do... my favorite glass broke. It was a mason jar so it won't be hard to replace, but it made me kind of sad. If I had my own t.v. show like Oprah, "My Favorite Things" episode would include a mason jar. Not as classy as Oprah, I will admit.
Max accidentally knocked it off the counter while he was doing dishes. He set it aside until I could see it so I would know that he broke it. H knew I'd be sad too. Haha, you get so attached to the stupidest things...
P.S. Luca survived his neutering, he's home safe and sound and two balls lighter :)

Crosseyed
I have been staring at my computer for hours.
At work, at least I can look away at grumbly customers.
But here, I have been staring at my computer for hours.
My eyes have gone buggy.
Not cool.
