Lights out in Rochester

We went out to Rochester tonight, which is pretty close to us.

They have all their building decorated with colored lights. It was FREEEEEZING out, but we made the trip to see it and walk down the strip of lit buildings. It is a sight to see! The photos are a bit blurry because we just brought our little camera. It was nice other than the fact that it was so cold we couldn't stay too long. Ha!

I love Christmas time!!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

WE MADE IT.... ONE YEAR!!!



Seems like just yesterday we first started dating... and then just yesterday we got engaged... and then just yesterday we got married... so many great memories. I can definitely say that my life is so much sweeter with Todd, and of course he feels the same... haha! :) But we've had a great year, and no matter how many people say that the first year is the hardest, I don't believe them one bit. We had so much fun. We could not have done it without Christ, and without him we would be nothing.

I honestly can't wait for many more anniversary's to come!

P.S. I'm going to post more on this... but I don't have all of the photos we took of our cake we ate. That was fun!

Puppy Class comes to an end... BOOO...

It has been awhile since I posted last. I need to update everyone with what is going on. November has been a very BUSY month!

We'll start with our last puppy class. It was a fun 6 weeks! The photos attached aren't that great, you have to look closely in them to see Rosco and I. The lighting and the quickness of our boy is pretty hard to have shot, esp with our little camera. (We didn't want to bring out big camera and show everyone up- Ha!)

We are signing him up for the next level, which is the Basic Obedience class and it starts in January. He's doing well, but he's DEF in his "terrible two's" stage right now. He thinks it's funny to grab anything and run around with it for attention. He won't let us get it either... that little stinker! He is definitely testing us... but we win in the end, well I should say "I" win. Todd says he acts like me and he's MY dog because we rub off on each other. He's funny!

But here are some photos, he's going to be an agility KING! He's so good at it! He already knows all the stuff... he loves the "Tire" and the "Tunnel".

Gabi's Senior Photos

It was kind of a crummy day out, but we made the effort to get her photos done. Gabi has such a great serious face, but it took awhile to get her to stop laughing. Her smile is also great, but not many people can pull the whole looking serious without looking funny. Ha! We had quite the adventure going into Royal Oak walking right into HUGE sticky patch that just covered us, and then back to Clawson to finish up at the park as it started raining in the middle of our shoot. Yikes! But we got through it, and with great spirits.

Family Visiting

My family came up to visit for the weekend. It was a lot of fun! We just hung out and we made a trip to the Cider Mill, which was fabulous. It was gorgeous out! We even made sure to do a family photo.

It was a quick weekend, but it was great to see them and have them be here. Can't wait until Thanksgiving.

The Wonderful Donnan's

I'm really behind on things... other work stuff keeps getting in the way (ha!).

But I did a photo shoot of a great family that I have known for 3 yrs. now from Lifetime. Theresa has been a wonderful friend of mine since I moved up here and her kids are amazing! I love them to pieces. I miss working at the same club, but we get to see each other almost every Friday! :) The day was gorgeous out a tad bit too sunny, but the leaves were awesome and very colorful! We played at the park for a bit and travelled around the park place. I realize how hard it is to take "kids" pictures, and I can definitely say I need some kids to practice on more often, but that's NOT going to happen anytime too soon, so slowly but surely I will do better. We had a fun time though!
