I delivered this families gallery a few days ago. They had originally booked with me last Fall but after numerous illnesses and crappy weather, we weren't able to actually get it done until the end of May. We weren't about to let a crushed finger stop this session from going forward as scheduled.
I've been falling behind on my self portrait project. My goal of weekly has become monthly and I've noticed that shift with the change in my mental health. I'm hopeful now that I am working on more self-care, the excitement behind these sessions will come back. I took these back towards the beginning of May, on a really really hot day. I ended up hating most of them because I could tell from the images that I was uncomfortable in the heat and in my body. I loved these though! They are a little different compared to what I usually do.
This guy is graduating in just a few days! How has the time flown so fast? I was just about to graduate from college when he was born. It's so strange to watch someone grow up through my entire adult life. Congratulations Gavin and good luck with your upcoming adventures!
THANK YOU for everyone who reached out to me in the last day or so. I decided to take down my post from yesterday. I realized that I posted it for reasons that could be better solved through other sorts of communication with people in my life.
These two peanuts are visiting us in Madison this weekend. They came down to walk with us for #walk4nf I've been friends with their mom since we were in 7th grade. So *does the math*, 28 years ago. We've been through a lot together, even though we now live hours apart. Health scares, infertility, miscarriages, high school science class, college, graduate school, boyfriends, significant others, and now kids. She lets me take pictures of her and her family. I've been grateful for her friendship and her support
Oh dear Mother Nature, are the warmer days of Spring finally upon us?
Mother's Day is coming on May 8th! In our community, Mother's Day weekend is always the same weekend as Wisconsin fishing opener. It's also the weekend for our community's city wide garage sales. What will I do for Mother's Day? Probably enjoy some quiet time with my family. I'll hope for nice weather so we can go play outside.
FINALLY! We had a warmer day here! We spent most of the day outside with the kids. We started the morning with breakfast at Panera and then to pick up a motorcycle from the Winter storage. We did some yard work and power washed the deck for the season. Lunch at a park with some playground time. Then home to start building our raised garden on our empty lot. It has full day direct sunlight, so much better suited for a vegetable garden than our current yard. After a tiny bit of time spent resting, we were back outside playing in the yard, setting up the "tree house" (which is really just our play structure). Of course, we ended the day on our bikes doing loops around our neighbor's driveway.
Getting outside today to enjoy the weather. I hope you are too! It’s finally Spring in southern Wisconsin! If you’ve never been, go check out @oregonfroyo. They are one of the best.
