Getting a little caught up...where i last left off..December :)

Ahh so I know I have been terrible at blogging the last six months, but I am wanting to at least get these images up for the loved ones that enjoy knowing whats going on in our lives so far away. I hope you enjoy :) 

"SAN DIEGO ZOO, AT NIGHT"

- it was wonderful! the animals were out and about, we think we saw more action than during the day. enjoyed a hot cup of coco to take off the cold winter chill. making memories. 

 {...this is where layers go wrong...hah too much!}

"PACIFIC BEACH"

-can you believe that this is DECember? yes, december and my toes were DYINg to be in the ocean. a nice morning stroll before work with coffee in hand. 

"MISSION BEACH"

will you pray for me?

{Maui 2010}

I thought a certain door, for a fantastic job opportunity was closed...however today it opened back up, I haven't walked through the door yet and made myself comfortable but I am waiting to be asked inside :) hah. By wednesday I should know if this opportunity is going to be the job choice for me or not, step one anyway. I am trying to give it up to God. I don't want to get too excited and then be disappointed, however I know that he knows the desires of our hearts, so I am hopeful. As things, or if they become more solid I will fill you in a tad more as to what this job is all about, but I would so appreicate your prayer in the next few days. Thank you for your prayers and thoughts. I will keep you posted!

his plan, his time.

if you'de ask me years ago where i thought i would be in 5 years i would say in the same house off the mount baker highway, with my husband and our toddler, going to the same church, having the same sunday lunches with our relatives, i would work at the rustic coffee bar once or twice a week and a part time photographer. Instead, we moved to Maui, we took on adventure after adventure...we moved to san diego, we continued adventure after adventure, i am working shy of 15hrs a week, and sleeping until 11 on my off days. AHh. I am tired. I am soo happy that we did what we did. I am so happy to have done it with Chris. I don't regret an ounce. But I am tired. I am ready for full time photography. I am ready for a full time job. I am ready to be pregnant. I am ready to not be pinching penny after penny. I am grateful chris has a full time job. But I can't wait to be working all the time to start saving for a car, so the possibilities of my photography career are endless and then we can find an affordable two bedroom place and start a family. I have never been more aware that the Lord is in charge of what happens in my life...i just am really struggling to be patient. i am looking for a second job this week. i am praying i find something that will start bringing in some decent money, and fast. i am tired. i am ready for good things to start happening for me. i speak as if i don't see my life is good, it is SOO good. i just am aching for some of the things i haven't been able to have due to our adventure after adventure that i've ached for since the beginning. tears fall. heart hurts. i have soo much and yet i want soo much. pretty pathetic. pray for me? thanks so much.

i take photos.

no Lauren Conrad but.....

.....FINAlly my bun is lookin NOT too shabby....after many tries...several different ways...i got my bun to look the way i have wanted...not tiny and on the top of my head, not messy, not tied in a knot, not anne of green gable style bless her soul but classic, full and just beautiful. now ya'll know how much hair i DOn't have...so this has been a trick, BUT I'de say my hair looks pretty beautiful right now don't you think? (I don't normally boast and am almost never confident about my hear stylin...so I am showing this one off :) ) yes, i have a headache with the tight hair tie and the bobby pins keeping it in tact...but it WILL last through my shift this evening and I will FEEl pretty :) YAY!

in rejoices and hardships, to God be the Glory.

ahh. doing the budget today my heart sunk just a little bit. phil4:13 comes to mind - as far as me getting another job and or work period. i know that he does not give us more than we can handle, he is faithful and will provide. ugh. it's just hard. when you add it all up, you see how much farther away you are from the things you really want to do such as have a babe, get a car, move into a 2 bed place and visit your brother in FL. hmm. I will not question this. we are grateful for a roof, and food....worry is not of the Lord and i am going to do my best to not do so..ah but i am soo bad at it. i do believe in the power of prayer..so if you happen to read this, if you could shoot up a prayer for things to start happening....chris to make commission, me to get another income in any form and us to just be able to figure it all out. thanks heaps friends. glory be to my God in this time of hardship.
