Time is flying by at a rate that has me spinning!I can't believe my last post was in Feb. and now it's JULY! YIKES! I really had
(have) good intentions for this little blog and I'm gonna try really REALLY hard to do better! =)
My ramblings......
The kids are growing up fast right before my eyes and it's all very fun and bittersweet! I moved my studio office home for the summer so I can be around all day and so that the kids don't have to spend their lazy summer days at the studio bored to deal
(or using up countless dollars worth of office supplies to remain sain). Now....I am only going in for appointments and I do all the office work/editing from home. It's a challenge some days as I try to find balance between sitting down and working or making jello fishbowls with the kids.
(recipe and pics coming soon!) It seems even the laundry beckons me while I am trying to get my work done. Oh well. I am guessing about the time I find the balance to it all fall will be here, school will start, and I'll move the office back into the studio! For now we are really enjoying the summer together!
We have resumed our summer tradition of "FUN DAY MONDAYS" and have done all sorts of sweet things like visited the natural Springs in Sulphur...gone bowling...hit the movies...built a fort...etc....and we have cooked out like crazy!
Our outdoor container garden is growing mighty fine and has yielded mass amounts of cucumbers and arugula to which we have devoured!! Also some squash..rosemary, basil, & YUMMY cilantro! We discovered our sweet Essie (dog) was consuming our strawberries-huff!
little pig! As for the tomatoes... & carrots ..nothing yet.
I have a ton of projects going on right now at work as well! ...I just shot and editorial for a major magazine
(SHAPE) as well as a cover for a national horticulture mag. Aaron and I are trying desperately to get the -{Adopt a Prop} shop opened up soon and it will feature lots of unique vintage finds...as well as backdrops and accessories for photographers. I am also thrilled to be a part of the panel for
Reverie blog a delightful blog founded by my good friend Skye Hardwick geared towards photographers... offering insights and inspiration! All this and yep...the daily In's and outs of running the studio......is keeping me young (or something like that!) What else....We are headed to the Outer Banks of North Carolina again next week. We went last summer and OMGOODNESS! I could live there! In fact I'm pretty sure I've snot, sweat and tears, down on my knees begged Mr. Quinn to no avail. I can't wait!!! We will be camping with our little "home on the hitch (camper trailer)....right on the beach!! SO EXCITED!!!
Okay...so I'm probably not completely caught up but good for now. I'll leave you with a few photos of my two kiddos SIX SUMMERS AGO!
life....at the speed of light!
