Feeling well enough to blog today

Well I haven’t been blogging because I didn’t think anyone cared to hear about my vomit color of the day!! I am starting to feel a little better and the site of blood is a little less disturbing. Needless to say working has been very difficult. Erin and Trevor came over last weekend but I didn’t feel that well most of the time it was still great to see them. I just didn’t take my typical 200 wave pictures. In fact I have barely touched my camera; I think I even had to dust it off the other day!
This photo is of Erin and Trevor whale watching. We only say the spray from the whale which is better than nothing.

I got meet alot of the girls on our street when one of them had a "passion party" party. They just don't have random sex toy parties in Utah! They are all super nice. Jessica, who hosted the party, came over today to do a photo shoot with her daughter, because I really need to learn how to use my studio equipment better.

I can’t tell everyone how nice it is to not hate your neighbors. In SLC we lived by the meanest people I have ever meet. They tried to make us get rid of Coaly! They even left a note on our door saying that they had contacted the owners of the condo and we had two weeks to find a new home for the dog. The look on their faces when I told them that WE WERE the condo owners, was priceless. My sister would often house sit for us if we left for the weekend, would do her best to help by opening up the windows and barking. Thanks Miranda.

Speaking of Miranda she was nice enough to post my story on her blog so if you want to find out how we found out or news you will have to go to her blog the link is Miranda and Troy (even thought I don’t think Troy does anything on the blog, but he should because he always has funniest email.) Anyway I am rambling so enjoy some photos of the past few weeks!!

Light Room

I FINIALLY felt well enough to play with my light room tonight, if that tells you how sick I have been!!! I got the lights In the mail on Wednesday and I didn’t even get it out of the box. I waited until drew came home and I even let him put it together and play with it first I then closed the door on it and let the dust start building up while I paid worship to the porcelain god because we all know how much more fun that is!!

Our Resignation:

In the past year alone I have wanted to become many things… A Lifeguard, EMT, Nurse… (WAIT people throw what up????....) Photographer, Administrator, anything to do with the Planned Parenthood and working with teens, teaching them about STD aka STI. Oh and you can’t forget Swim Instructor. Drew on the other hand, is an Engineer through and through. He always had the best couch fort with the most stable design, despite what Coaly thinks. He is a true Mr. Fix it. From your bike, to your computer, back to your car, he can fix it. With all of my uncertainties and his ability to fix anything I formally announce our resignation from a semi care free couple. For we are about to enter it to the world of parenthood.

Sincerely,
Drew and Keri
