There are only FIVE more months in 2012…how unreal! July kind of flew by for us. Even though I took a little bit of a break from shooting, I still felt like I was as busy as ever. It’s funny how there’s always more and more to do.
July Highlights
- My birthday! We celebrated my birthday ON my birthday since it was actually on a Saturday and I didn’t have a wedding to shoot. Our cousin and his girlfriend came to visit and we showed them around a little bit. I also enjoyed my first ever beermosa…which was delicious, if you were curious.
- My first boudoir marathon…I decided I love boudoir photography. So. much. gorgeousness.
- The Dark Knight Rises!! I decided to add this as a highlight because it was AWESOME!! It totally exceeded all of my expectations and I think it was the best film of the trilogy. A lot of people will probably disagree, but I liked it even better than The Dark Knight.
- Also pictured below: I failed at a detox diet, enjoyed a free slurpee, and spent the Fourth of July embroidering. That’s how I roll.
What’s next for August
- We’re moving! Just across town to a new apartment…but our new place will have a dedicated (albeit small) office space for me. Right now I work in our second bedroom (guest room/John’s workout room/office). I really wanted to be able to separate my work from the rest of that since I work from home now and this apartment is PERFECT for that. I also have tons of ideas on how I want to decorate and I’m really excited to start a series of decor posts. You might know this but I used to have a (terrible) blog about all my decor ideas back in the day. Can’t wait to share more ideas here!
- John turns 27. Awwww. We also celebrate the fourth anniversary of when we got Lucy, our cat.
- Creating and ordering a sample album. I mean it this time. I’ve been procrastinating for so long on this one, I just need to get it taken care of!
- Drinking lots more water. I am really not a water drinker, but it’s summer and I have been getting lots of headaches and I think it has a lot to do with my (lack of) water consumption. My mom was nice enough to give us a Brita pitcher so hopefully I will get a lot of use out of that.
- Speaking of my mom, my parents will be celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary this year!! Yay!!!
What are you looking forward to in August? Anything exciting? ย Feel free to share in the comments:)
