Glue guns are a girls best friend :)

I did not take any pictures last week.  So now I am completing a 53 week (err Jenn was distracted week) project.  I am hoping not to extend my "photo a week" project any longer than 53 weeks but I am not making any promises.  So what has been distracting me?  This pretty puppy.

Say hello to my little friend.  This could quite possibly be one of the best Christmas presents I have ever received. (Thanks Mom :) Love ya! Now I will stop stealing yours)  Back to the distractions.  I. Like. To. Craft.  Plain and simple.  It is a big stress reliever and oh so much fun to say hey! I made this:)  I have a slight case of ADHD when it comes to crafting.  I get so excited and get too many ideas running through my head that more often than not I bite off more than I can chew.  So my pictures are to show you a few of my "pretties" I have been making the past two weekends.  I have soooooooo many more to make! On to the photos:




Tune in later to see what I eventually do with all of them:)

Things that make my heart sing.

I am blessed with a wonderful family.  I know everyone says that but mine truly rocks:) It never fails that a night spent with my family ends up with lots of rolling on the floor laughing moments.  A new addition to our family and who I am featuring for my last weeks picture is Warren.  I cannot believe this little man is already 3 months old!  He makes my heart swell every time I see him, and me being the emotional sap that I am finds him so perfect that he makes me tear up every time I see him.  I absolutely love watching my sister and brother interact with him.  It is an amazing thing to see how much they have changed and grown since Warren was brought into their lives.  Enough with my gushing about my nephew and onto some pictures.
Look at that CRAZY red hair and big blue eyes:)


















I am so ready for spring!  This week's picture is inspired by Spring:)  I love fresh flowers and I end up buying them for the house quite a bit.  I stumbled upon some daffodils and just had to have them.  I also am in love with antique stores.  I frequent a nearby antique store at least every other weekend to see what is new and I love going to new antique stores and just browsing for hours.  I am also a bit obsessed with milk glass.  I just love the way it looks, so when I went to the antique store to find the perfect milk glass vase for my daffodils of course I ended up buying three:)

I am a bit obsessed with photography blogs and blogs of all sorts lately.   My ultimate goal in life would be to create a business where I can work from home once my husband and I decide to start a family.  Since the sound of a shutter releasing is probably one of my favorite sounds it would only be fitting that I consider a photography business.  I am hoping that I can develop my hobby into something more...eventually whether it be part time or *cross my fingers* full time. Getting back to my ramblings of photography blogs, one of my new favorite blogs I am following gives wonderful advice.  The photographer boasts to shoot what makes your heart sing and I think that is the best advice you could give anyone who enjoys photography.  So what makes my heart sing you ask?  Newborns!!!  I realized when I took my nephews newborn pictures that capturing a new life in the first few days of welcoming them to this world was something I could do 24/7.  So this is something that I would love to pursue.  So I would gladly accept people to volunteer their perfect little ones to model for me:)  Please e-mail me at Jenn00717@gmail.com if you are interested! Or contact me on facebook.  I also have some fun ideas for a one year old photo shoot.  So if you know of a little one turning one soon feel free to contact me as well:)

On a side note...tomorrow is Monday. Ugh I despise Mondays.
That is all for now!
