the way we were

its already monday again. where did the weekend go? oh yeah, it barely existed. don't feel too sorry for me though, because i got spend my saturday in emerald isle photographing a beautiful wedding, for a beautiful couple. although it does make for a short weekend, i still love being a part of any couple's wedding day. this particular couple, i'm especially fond of. maybe its because the bride was born just 2 days before me on 8/1/82. or maybe its because they are just genuinely nice, real people. or maybe its because i can so clearly see their love for each other in just the few times i've spent with them. when you see 2 people who are so obviously made for each other, it really makes your job as a photographer, that much easier! they are a very sweet couple, who i've really enjoyed getting to know. so that was my saturday and it was lovely. for a super quick, sneak peek, head on over to my photo blog.

jeremy had a show with his band saturday morning. my dad was kind enough to keep rivers for us for a couple hours while jeremy was on his way back from his gig and i was on my way to my "gig". from what i heard, rivs and dad had a great time together and did a little of everything, which included watching a movie, blowing bubbles, walking around & exploring the house & yard, and even a walk through the back woods to the little creek behind the house.

i got home from the beach on sunday by 10 am, so i had plenty of time to work on laundry, clean out litter boxes, change the bed sheets, vacuum, blow bubbles with rivers, enjoy lunch with my two sweet boys, back up the images from the wedding, choose a paint color for the bonus room, boss jeremy around, and have dinner with my boys as well as my parents. does that sound like a busy day? it was and wasn't. busy with just chores mostly, but also quite enjoyable because i was home with my guys - and that's when i'm happiest.

because this has turned out to be a pretty boring post, i'll include a couple pictures of mr handsome. these are from a few weeks ago with his wild hair! i just gave him a quick trim last week, which has tamed his hair for now.  i love when i catch him in his play room reading quietly to himself.

 

i suggested we head outside to play and he was all for it!
