{Family} Kara & Chris

November 19th already...where has this year gone?!  Are you all getting excited for Christmas?  I am - I'll admit the Christmas tunes have been playing for several weeks already.  I love that this time of year brings family portrait Christmas cards, and we were so lucky to get that nice weekend a couple weekends ago.

Kara met her hubby, Chris, on her 19th birthday, and they've been together ever since!  About 16 months ago, they welcomed their son, Kason, into the world.  He is a such a cute little bug, as his mom likes to call him!  All bundled up, we met at the Heron Reserve, in Chilliwack.  It is my favourite park in Chilliwack - I have had many "field trips" there with one of my students I teach.

Thank-you, Kara and Chris, for allowing me to spend some time capturing the love and energy of your family.  Kara, it was great to see you and reconnect.  (Kara and I have known each other since grade 2).

Until next time, many blessings!

{Currently}

Happy November!  Through reading my friends' blogs, a few have blogged a post "Currently".  I thought it was a fun idea.  A chance to see what I'm up to at the moment & get to know me better...so here you go, enjoy!

{CURRENTLY}...

...Obsessing:  over the movie Pitch Perfect.  I am sucker for acapella music.  The Sing-off is one of my favourite reality TV shows, so when I saw the preview for the movie, I knew I had to see it!  Well...I've actually seen it three times now.  LOL.  But the music is so great, and it's really funny!  Rebel Wilson definitely steals the show.  So if you haven't already, grab your girlfriends and go see it!



...Working: on my own version of a wedding planning binder - with helpful resources for those brides who just aren't sure or those brides who love to be organized and have everything in one place.

...Thinking about: the future - travelling & my company.

...Anticipating: Christmas!  It's my favourite holiday.

...Learning: how to balance time with having full time job, starting my own business, and still having time for family and friends. This always seems to be a work in progress.

...Wishing: I didn't have to say good-bye again to one of my best friends.  The month she has been home, has gone by way too fast, but I am thankful for the time we've had together!



...Eating:  Potato and Leek soup!  So yummy :)

...Praying for: strength and healing for those dealing with cancer.  It has been a rough year - having many family and friends' dealing with the awful disease.  But God is bigger than it all, and I have hope in Him that He knows what's best.

So there you have it!  My first one finished.  I think I'm going to try to do these once a month.  Let me know what's {Currently} going on with you!
