New Year, new challenge {Project 365}

Happy NEW YEAR!!!

I have so many new photos to share (Christmas, new house, etc.), but today I am starting a new challenge!

My sweet friend, Bethany, has encouraged me to join her in a "photo a day" adventure!

Share one photo from each day of your 2012--I guess I'll call it {Project 365}

It can be someone...something...perfect and edited...simple and captured with your phone...

I am excited! I feel like I really failed capturing 2011. I used to take (and blog) my everyday/personal photos all the time. BUT I just got so busy with my business and client photos in 2012, I fell behind. So, I am ready to join in on this new adventure! Like Bethany said on her blog, I will sometimes take my photos with the 5D and edit. OR I may sometimes just snap them with my iPhone. I doesn't matter, I just want to capture our everyday life! COME JOIN ME!! Start your challenge too! It's only January 2nd! It will be fun to put the 365 photos into a book at the end of the year!

DAY ONE | JANUARY 1st

Home improvement fun with my hubby! We spent most of New Years day in Wichita, shopping for our home (shelving, towel bars, etc.). Then Mimi kept Barrett overnight, so we stayed up until 5am working!! We had so much fun, and I will remember this night forever! We sang along to Pandora. We talked about how much we LOVE our new home...how every step of this journey has been guided by God. All along the way, we thought we knew what we wanted, but He always had bigger plans. 

We put a second coat of primer on our Master Bath. It had wallpaper, which my mom (bless her heart) peeled. The walls were in bad shape after that, so Justin patched them with sheetrock mud, sanded, and we primed. Two coats of primer and two coats of paint later...I love it! We also painted the mudroom close and gave it a makeover! Will share that later! AND we put together a shelf and bench. We had a blast, and at 4:58am, we crashed.
