By way of Introduction...

  • And a moving date looms...

    Whew! Please excuse my absence these past few months! Wow... it really has been over a month since I last posted! I keep up more on Facebook... (Are we friends yet?). But I did want to post a little bit of an update...

    Corpus Christi, here we come?

    Corpus sea gullI know. That's a question? Welcome to the world of the medical school waiting game!  After months of clinical rotations, applications, and interviews we now eagerly await "The Match"! With graduation looming for Todd in May we hope to know by March where residency will be. Our top choice? Corpus Christi, Texas. Not only for the gorgeous beach front location (with a resonable living standard), but an amazing ER residency program at Christus Spohn Hospital. The clinical rotation there was Todd's best experience anywhere and he got glowing reviews from the staff. One resident even recommended a realtor to us and we thoroughly enjoyed looking at some housing in and around Corpus which only further cemented our decision to make Corpus our top choice! So now we wait.... and pack; ...and start listing our house here in Kansas City as soon as possible. (Whew! I feel tired just writing that!!)

    I'll try to keep you in the loop as we find out more! Ta, ta for now!

  • More Engagement Pictures

    Paul and Jozi were my subjects for the last shoot I did at night on the Plaza. We decided to get together again and get some shots in the daytime. It was a chilly afternoon but we got some great shots! The afternoon sun was so beautiful coming through the trees...

Profile

  • Interests: My five (count them, FIVE!!) gorgeous children and the love of my life, Todd! Because of CHRIST, I love LIFE (almost every minute of it), my husband, my children and PHOTOGRAPHY pretty much in that order. I love drinking hot tea with my lovely mother at my kitchen table (or hers). I love late night talks with my best friend from childhood! I love having a CAMERA stuck to my face! I love to sing "A Bushel and A Peck" at the top of my lungs with my kids! I LOVE CHOCOLATE! I love singing to the radio in my car with the music cranked up loud! I think Starbucks is to DIE for! I love dressing up to go out with my husband and his cute look of misery when I dress him up too. ;-) Oh, and COFFEE!!!!
  • Expertise: Acting like the blond I am becoming... *sigh* Kissing owies, loosing stuff, being "fashionably" late, seducing Toddy *winks*
