I have had the opportunity to be a summer nanny this summer for a wonderful little family, whom I grew to love so much over the summer! I had 3 little ones, Emma who is 4, Cooper who is 3 and Milo turned 2 over the summer! So, yes they did keep me very busy, but I wouldn't have had it any other way!
Over the summer I finally invested in buying a camera I have had my eyes on for awhile! I took a photography class in the 8th grade and ever since then I have always had a passion for photography. I did a lot of research and I decided on the Canon T2i. I could not be happier with it! I am still learning and try to get everything figured out but I have had lots of fun playing with it! I am even going to photograph a wedding this Saturday.
Here she is! =)
Over the summer I turned 21! Yay, Caleb threw me a wonderful surprise birthday in downtown Fort Worth with lots of friends! We had a great time! Caleb and I also hit a milestone on Aug, 8th! Our 1 year anniversary! We went all out, and took a trip down to Cozumel, Mexico!! We absolutely had the time of our lives there! We stayed at Cozumel Palace, and we can not say enough about this place. The staff was phenomenal and couldn't have treated us better! This was a first class hotel all the way, we didn't have to lift a finger from the time we walked in till the time we left!
Here are a few pics from our vacation:
Too many photos to post on here but click on this link and you can see many more! 1 year Anniversary!
We also have some exciting news, Caleb was re-baptized on Labor day! He has been talking about this for a couple of years now and just felt when he was baptized the first time he was so young and didn't quite fully grasp the importance of this life changing decision! So he went and had coffee with the leader of our small group and he called me and he said he didn't want to wait any longer, so he would be getting baptized the next day! This meant so much to me to be able to be there and watch my husband be baptized!
We also have some exciting news! The Lord has called us to be part of a mission team in Rwanda, Africa at the end of this year! We are asking that you all keep us, our team, and all the lost people we will reach in Africa in your prayers! My brother is also going to joining us on this mission trip! We have created a new blog that we are going to keep everyone updated on our preparation before the trip and we are going to try to also blog during the trip!
Here is the Rwanda blog http://rwandahope.blogspot.com/
We love you all and we are very excited to go and spread God's love!
