    This little girl’s parents, Brandon and Hannah, were good friends of mine in college and now live overseas. We had so much fun reconnecting at Chick Fil A for a couple hours this afternoon and our girls became fast friends.

    march photo project.

    Yesterday was my two hour beginner photography class with Ashley from Joyful Images Photography and it was everything I hoped it would be.

    I know, I know, I’ve dropped the ball on my photo-a-day this week. But I have a good excuse. Our (only) bathroom has been incapacitated since Friday morning. So we’ve been nomads, wandering to and fro throughout Columbia, searching for a place to go potty. David and I joked that we’re real homeowners now. All those dreams about a kitchen remodel or adding a second bathroom? Well, turns out our first major expense renovation is one no one will ever see: all new plumbing under the house. I’m a planner, and I had big plans for this weekend and week. But they were all thrown out the window and I…
