Prison Break

Slow and Steady finishes the race!! On Saturday I ran the Prison Break Half Marathon that started and ended at the prison. Before I left for the race in the morning I found this sweet note under my iPod. I love this girl!

This group is what kept me going!! I couldn't wait to see these faces at the finish line. This definitely was the greatest prize. I am a lucky Mom.

My Man

i am married to the most incredible man. i have yet to find something he can't do.  he has had to do hard things this year. i have watched as he has worked late nights and sometimes through the night. i have seen him by the bedside on his knees humbly seeking. I have seen the concern on his face and in his eyes. i am seeing him change into something wiser and stronger. i feel the the love in his words and actions.  i learn from him everyday. i am truly blessed.

Scouting it Out.

I have a photo shoot tomorrow morning, so the boys and I were testing out a location. I liked how these turned out except for the fact that I was shooting at ISO 800 . . .  I'm always forgetting something!!! At least it happened today and not tomorrow!

This is why I post more of Nate... he's home during the day, and he cooperates:)

Happy Birthday Grace

Washington DC

I was able to take a trip with Doug to DC last week for the Auto Auction Convention. Business for Doug, a break for me. We had a great time, and I was able to have a couple relaxing days. I missed my kids and am glad to be home. Here are a few shots from the trip.

Washington Monument

My favorite of all was the Lincoln Memorial. I have seen pictures before, but I was amazed at the size - it was awesome to see in person.

Doug, always at work:)
