It’s been a long time…..

Well hello blog readers. I’m back and ready for some blogging. Sorry about the long silence on the blog but I have been busy with some business planning and personal goals.

Not much has been going on lately. I’m still booking weddings and I’m completely shocked that I still don’t have any weddings on the books for July this year. If you know of anyone who is getting married in July please send them my way so I can get them signed up. Otherwise I’m gonna just take the month off and travel! Haha just kidding.

Mom update – Momma Sue is still going strong with her fight in breast cancer. She had a mastectomy and the doctors are now thinking that she will have a hysterectomy within the month. There is a mass on her ovaries and they don’t know if it’s cancerous or not. So just to be sure they want to clean out that whole area. Which is fine I doubt she will be having any more kids . She will be starting radiation sometime soon to fight the small spots of bone cancer.

This experience so far has been very humbling for me. Having your parent go through this tough journey is stressful none the less. Luckily my mother is very stubborn and strong. She always makes the comment that her body has cancer and not her. It’s that thinking that has gotten her this far in the fight and I know she will win! The other big stress has been finances. Since she has not been able to work I’ve been covering her larger living expenses. Which has made this winter even tougher for SWP. I am extremely grateful for the charities that have help my mom thus far. But in 3 more months all that help ends and I’m left with taking care of her. Hmm, maybe mom will have to move back in with me and Sydne? You can bet that I will be doing a lot of promotions that support cancer and the families that are struggling with it currently. So check back in if you want to take part in these promotions, I will post them on the blog.

Last week I attended PP of Idaho. Although its a small group I really like the people involved. I tried to get on the board but I missed it by a couple votes. Oh well maybe next year.

I have updated the website yet again. I’m not sure if the first image is to risky or not. But I’m always the one that likes to test and prod what I can get away with. So if it offends you close your eyes for the first 5 seconds or so.

Last topic is about Joey Lawerence. He is a photographer that was based out of Canada and now resides in NYC. I’ve been following him for the past couple years and the kid is amazing. When I say kid I think he is 19 now and travels the world photographing lost cultures. Or should I say ones seldom seen or talked about. For example he got back from a 6 week trip Africa and photographed numerous native tribes. I urge you to check out his blog by clicking on his name above. Personally I would love the opportunity to due what Joey is doing. Traveling the world while photographing it would be a dream for me.
