MommaHub PhotoBug88: Summer Break

Life has been kind of INSANE lately. Addelyn's huge, elaborate birthday party (never again! so stressful!), moving, painting, unpacking, organizing etc. Also my freelance web and photography has been super busy lately. I had a wedding the day we moved (last Saturday), so that was kinda nuts :) I also have one next Saturday, and haven't finished editing my March wedding, so I'm falling behind quickly. I've also had many, many new requests for family and other pictures and also working on a few new websites and keeping some current sites updated. All of this on top of working part time at my church (3 days a week) and trying to keep up my wifely and motherly home duties. Oh, and did I mention that the week we moved, I had to launch our church website as well which is a huge project I've been working on for 4+ months.

So, that said, life has been kind of crazy, and I've decided to take a summer break! I feel like things that aren't that important in the long run (photography/web = money, facebook and other things) are taking too much of my time and energy. I'm taking a break from facebook and photography for the summer (other than the things I'm already committed to). So, in my absence from facebook, I thought I would start blogging again as a release to write whats going on and share some pictures of our work on the house and of course my beautiful daughter :)

I look forward to my days off and evenings being spent playing with my daughter, working out in the yard, gardening, reading or relaxing on the deck, rather than being stuck on the computer struggling to edit photos, create/update websites and trying to stay on top of facebook while my daughter is begging for my attention behind me. I'm really excited for this break and hope I am refreshed in the fall to get back into my love for photography and design.

So, on a lighter note, here's a few pictures from lately!
