If only we could choose our family

I feel like there's nothing to hope for when it comes to my family and all of their incredibly stubborn attributes. I've come to the unfortunate realization that it's going to take a miracle for my family to ever be able to function normally again (I should say normal for us anyways). I'm going to have to get used to the fact that I won't be celebrating holidays or going on vacation with that side of the family anymore. My grandma will finally get her wish, we won't have to celebrate christmas and she can just go to work and escape from the world like she wants to. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I wish I didn't feel so incredibly helpless. I don't understand why any of this stuff is happening, and I can't do anything to help the problem. Why? Why? Why? The never ending question to this thing we call life. I feel like today has been a day of defeat. That's not the case, but it's just been one of those days that it's really hard to see the positive. I can't and never will expect my life to be perfect, but there's somethings that I wish I could skip, I just hope and pray that I'm at least able to learn something from all of this stuff that seems to be going on in my life. I wish I had a fast foward button, but then I know for a fact that I wouldn't learn anything. I just pray that God gives me the strength to focus on him, and not all the things that are going on in my life now. Hoping for happier days to come!

AH HA!!!

I finally figured out how to post pictures! Yeah for technology...This makes me so happy, I could sing a song...but dont' worry, I won't. =P

Adventures with Cake.... 

The Wait is Over

Well Russel and Christina are married! Yippee!!! Congrats to them and their new life together! The wedding was a blast and everything turned out to be quite beautiful! I took a few pics...oh just 8 rolls!!! It was really fun and I'm so thankful that I did, because I have two possible wedding settings, now that Christina has been showing off her album!!! How awesome is that! I would love to photograph weddings on the side of what-ever I end up doing with my life! It would be so much fun! And I'd love to be able to give these couples pictures of their wedding day that they love, by capturing the emotions of the day. I think it's awesome that people enjoy my work, and I love the fact that photography is remaining a part of my life! I'm starting to think that I'd like to be a high school photography teacher! It's all too crazy to think of right now, but I think that would be so much fun...a challange no doubt, but fun and rewarding!

Well life is officially back to normal, now that all the wedding planning is done! Great fun! Now it's time to get started on getting my on-line classes done! ptttt....school....sigh...=)
