Here we are; our 15th installment of ‘Sunday’s – A Year In Our Life’
We have been planning and beginning the early stages of buying property to build our home on. So we met with Lauren one of the real estate agents with Navasota Realty and spent the morning and afternoon looking at some homes, and property to try to get a better idea of what is available and rule out what we don’t want to have on the property and we do want. Here is a photo of one of the pieces of land we looked at courtesy of Navasota Realty and one of my favorites from one of our visits in Austin.
Enjoy and we hope you all have a fabulous week!!!

Adeus for now!

Here we are; our fourteenth installment of ‘Sunday’s – A Year In Our Life’
We had the pleasure of capturing Monica & Will’s day of love on Saturday, and the Sunday following a wedding is usually a day of rest for us, but I just couldn’t stand it! So I decided to not just download the image files off of our cards and back them up, but to also just pick one image that struck me while browsing through them. I’ll be sharing a full blog post of Monica & Will’s sneak peek in a couple of days.
Enjoy and we hope you all have a fabulous week!!!

Adeus for now!

It’s our thirteenth installment of ‘Sunday’s – A Year In Our Life’
We really made good use of the term ‘Lazy Sunday Afternoon’, being that this will be our last quiet Sunday for a while.
So while we watched the Colts beat the Jets and the Saints beat the Vikings, I also took some time to pick up my book ‘Style Statement: Live by your own design’ that I haven’t been able to dig into since November and read…enjoyable. I was really taken by this book when I first picked it up months ago, but moving, and work, and holiday visits with family didn’t leave me much time to lie around reading ;) So I took advantage of the little bit of down time I had and read.
When I was attending Diablo Valley College in 96 – 97; I took some early child development classes, and one class in particular we spent a couple of months on personality tests…like the Keirsey Test and the Myers – Briggs Tests (I’m an INFP, I always loved taking these) The book I’m reading is meant to take you on a journey to guide you and help you discover your own personal style statement. Your style statement is the definition of two words that define your unique self. If you’re curious like I am, I highly suggest picking it up if you want to delve in a little more about yourself and how your ‘Style Statement’ can play a role in your everyday life, completely
So I’ll share a photo of my copy of ‘Style Statement: Live by your own design’ enjoy and we hope you all have a fabulous week!!!

Adeus for now!
