Headed West

Goodbye normal everyday life. Hello Destin... Hello beach... Hello mental bliss...

Hello to a much needed vaca. Headed to Destin tomorrow through Sunday for a getaway.

For clients: Please email me if you have any questions and I will get back with you next week. I'm refusing to use my cell phone for anything other than emergencies only...which means it will get used plenty...I'm sure of that.

Adios folks!

Oren Shuler Family

Just when we think we have problems, we are quickly reminded that life could be much worse.

To the Shuler family, you are all in our thoughts and prayers, especially Oren. May God give each one of you the strength you need to get through each day during this difficult time. I have faith that He will. I know the following days won't be easy, but just know that you have family and many, many friends praying for you and Oren.

Cuteness x 2




The twins are back! Had to share this one pic...the first one I edited...just 'cause it was so darn cute. I am the luckiest photog in the world to have the opportunity to snap pics of these beautiful little girls. Only have time to post one of them, but...you get the idea ;)

Divorce

Divorce sucks. Divorce hurts. It's no fun for anyone involved. I don't care how mad you are, it's still surreal realizing the last 7 years of your life are coming to a close. Everything you built, or thought you built, over the years is ending. Your dreams, your hopes, your life...everything will change. But I guess change is something I'm used to these days. Doesn't make it easier, but it makes it a little more bareable. It's something I've learned to not be afraid of.

As I look back over the last seven years of my life, I'm appreciative of all the good times I've had. I'm appreciative of all the bad, because in some weird way, the bad times made me realize even more what I want in this life. They've made me realize what is important. That I will NOT settle for less than what my children and I deserve and what God expects a family to be.

Do I regret the last seven years of my life? Absolutely not. I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat if that's what it took to have Anna Lynn and Tripp in my life. They make my life worthwhile. They make me want to be a better person. A better mother. A better daughter. A better child of God. They ARE my life, and for that, I am thankful.

Life is short. We're not guaranteed tomorrow. We're not guaranteed the rest of today. What we do with our time is in our own hands. Our happiness is up to us. So, in order for me to find the true happiness I want, I deserve, I need...I'm moving on. I not waiting anymore for other people to change in order for me to be happy. It's up to me. No one else.

As I set off in a new direction in my life, I pray for God to give me the strength and guidance he's given me throughout the past year. I don't know exactly what lies ahead, but we'll make it through whatever comes our way. As long as my path leads me closer to Him, I know it's the right direction. It's not always easy to make yourself walk down a path you know is going to be difficult, but sometimes the destination is worth struggle you endure along the way.

So, yes, this sucks. This hurts. But we're gonna make it through. We are a team. Me, Anna Bugs, Trippers, and God.

Moving on...

Oh, I have a blog. Feels like I've forgotten all about it. I have, to an extent. Life's been busy...to say the least...but isn't everyone's? And it fo sho ain't slowing down anytime soon. But that's cool. That's how I roll these days.

I'm in the process of a major life change and a major move. My computer is in pieces right now so clients waiting on pics, please bare with me. I PROMISE I'll get to them.

I hope you guys have a GREAT summer! I know mine will be a busy one, but busy is best for me. In the meantime, check out Ash's blog...you won't be sorry you did...
