Randomonium (sp?)

It was brought to my attention this morning by a very dear and impatient friend, whom shall remain anonymous (cough hack cough megan cough hack cough burp pardon), that I have yet again neglected my blog. So, in efforts to keep my dear friend happy I am here. Posting. Nonsense. I had several weeks 'off', which is bizarre and odd for me. It's just how my month ended up, so it wasn't planned, but it has left me with a TON of work all at once. I normally only ever work Saturday's, but this month I've had 3 weekday sessions in addition to my weekend sessions and pretty much all of my work for the month ended up being within a 10 day period. So, I've been running around like a mad woman trying to keep up, and it's not working so well. Good news is, I think I've found myself a mommy's helper for the summer to help keep me on task. And I laugh about the "on task" thing, but a girl can hope! Since Mason won't get a summer program this year, I've been a little concerned about what to do with their days. But if I can keep up with work with the help of extra hands, I can probably have a couple of days a week that I am not stuck in front of the computer working. I love resolutions. They are so resolving. ;o) Ok, so I really have nothing else of any huge interest at this very moment. But I will be SURE to come back this week with images to share and more randomonium. Amen.

Sweetness.

My grandparents came to visit this weekend, and while they were in town we headed out to Marble Falls for some yummy lunch at the Bluebonnet Cafe. If you've never been there, you have to check it out! It's just a little diner, but man the food is yummy and the pie is out of this world (but still not as good as my mom's or granny's!)! On our way home we took the long way through Burnet and Bertram, and stopped at this old (and nasty lol) flea market that always has lots of cool antiques and such. I've been on the prowl for a really cool chair for a while, still looking for a velvet wingback chair of some sort, but was thrilled to find this cool chair! It happened to match Brooklynne's dress too! LOL I wish she had been wearing a contrasting color, but it still worked well. We stopped at this cool abandoned building in Bertram, and my kids actually cooperated for a few photos. It was just for fun, but I ended up with a ton of pics I LOVE!!! Too bad too, cause I just ordered 3 new canvases for myself and had to use images from Thanksgiving. lol Which means I'll have to just get more of these! ;o) Hope you all had a beautiful Mother's Day, it was a gorgeous day out!



She is the one person he will stop and give love to, no matter what. And she loves it.


How I love these three little mongrels.


Isn't she getting so big?!?!

This is her saying, "Mooooom, not more photos!". LOL

Yay for kids being still!


Peek-a-boo!

Tagged....x2!

Many of you may remember the last time I was tagged, well I've been tagged again times 2! My crazy friend Vicki, and a wonderful budding photographer Alison tagged me. This time there are actual questions to answer so I don't have to dig up 10 random things about me! ;o)

The rules are:
1. The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
3. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they've been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

What I was doing 10 years ago: 10 years ago...well, I was almost 18 so I'm sure I was up to nothing good that's for sure! And yes, I really am 27 (and a half), and yes I do have 3 kids at this ripe young age. My husband and I like each other...a lot. ;o)

Five things on my To Do List today: I am a list maker, especially when there are things to really be done. My grandparents are visiting this weekend, and while they may not even come here I feel the need to make sure my baseboards are dust free and everything sparkles. Which is hard with 3 young kids to "help".
So, on my to do list is place orders, wipe baseboards, and scrub toilets. Anyone wanna help?!?!

Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
I'd buy a big ole house. Or 5.
Buy my parents a beautiful house on land in Kentucky.
Tithe.
Shop.
Travel.
Get laser hair removal so I never have to shave again.
Eat.
And donate to my favorite charities.
(but not in this order, I'd clearly have the hair removal done before I traveled)

Three of my bad habits:
Not drinking enough water and drinking too many Dr. Peppers
Not excercising
I hate doing the dishes so I let Joseph take care of that.

Five places I've lived:
Kentucky
San Antonio, TX
Leon Valley, TX
Austin, TX
Leander, TX



Five jobs I’ve had:
Waitress
New employee trainer and admin
Leasing Consultant
Chauffer, chef, maid, teacher, disciplinary, etc (aka Mom)
Photographer

People I want to know more about (a nice way of saying TAG!):
Robin DePaula
Megan Franks
Jennifer Adams
Jodie Minniear
Rebecca Tyler
