our lovely, old farmhouse

I am appalled that the last post I made was the beginning of November! However, life sometimes takes over and that is exactly what happened at the end of the year! As I’ve mentioned before, we moved from Nashville, TN to Grove City, OH last August.  We moved into a small condo and we were busy getting the kids settled in school, sports and church and learning our  way  around our new home . I was making trips back and forth to Nashville (like a mad woman I might add) to finish up photo sessions I had previously scheduled and then Thanksgiving rolled around.

We went to visit my sister at Thanksgiving and the evening we arrived back into town we began moving from our condo into an old farmhouse. That carried us into the first week of December and then I took off for Nashville, AGAIN, to participate in a Christmas craft show where I took the Santa photos. Also, that weekend, I spent about 10 hours with the moving company as they packed up our home in Nashville (which still has yet to sell, but I digress) so that we could actually have our furniture in our new home instead of sleeping on air mattresses and sitting on a borrowed couch!

I arrived home at 1 A.M. Monday morning and the moving truck arrived about 8:30 A.M. Thus started the whirlwind of December! My world finally stopped spinning last Friday, I think.  My equilibrium is still a little off so I’m not quite sure. But things seem to be back to normal.  Sooooooooooo, here we are. Finally ready to get back to business as usual!

So now that you have that update, I wanted to let you know that I’ve got some exciting things in the near future and I’ll be offering some fun mini-sessions to help shake off these winter blues! I’ll be posting this weekend about some upcoming Valentine’s sessions so be watching!
