| Okay, this will be short, sweet and to the point.... I'M PREGNANT!!!! I'm three months down and six to go. I've got a little pooch and things seem to be going well.

| Well I'm still not so good at keeping up with the Xanga Blogging Jones'. I truly do suck at blogging consistently. But here I am again, hoping that someone will find what I have to say important. Okay well at least hopefully I'll get you to read this little blurb, which so far is about nothing.  To be honest I don't have much to say. Maybe my life is seriously boring. The JOB (working as a photographers assistant) is going well. I started working from home which is awesome, but I find it very hard to get motivated to actually work. My own business (attempting to start a photography business) is slow. I photographed some weddings in January, which was awesome and I got some great experience, but nothing since then. I think personally, I fear success because to be honest, it's a lot of work and who the heck wants to work.
I painted my kitchen last week. I looks TONS better than before. There was some nasty cream wallpaper that had blue and pink strips going down with small little blue lowers in between the strips.It was ugly and well if you know me, it was definitely not my style. So, I painted it a nice shade of green. Levi's been working on building me some metal quilted back splash to put up on the wall right above my counter tops. I am going for the contemporary, coffee shop, clean look.
Levi and I have been talking about moving to Europe when these stinkin' student loans are paid off. I would LOVE to live there and he just likes to travel, so we're going where I want to go  . I suppose it's one of those pipe dreams that may become a reality if we seriously get those loans paid off soon. Because the longer we're here the more likely we'll start to take root and settle here which is not really what we want to do. I love my folks, but it'd been nice to feel like I've moved on.
Well, I've got to go to Wal-Mart, the bank, and the post office so in the words of Napoleon Dynamites brother, 'Peace Out'

| Well, we're still working on that CD that's due out sometime at the end of the year. We're shooting for a November release, but no guarantees. I've been working on the CD art/design these past few weeks. Takes a long time to get it looking like you want it to, but I'm almost finished. 
I've been hired for another wedding. This one's in November, and I have a possible one in December as well as for sure ones in January and June.
Levi and I got new speakers for our computer!!!! Our other ones were missing a cord so we've been listening through headphones for the past year. We got a killer deal on these speakers and well, to be honest anything's better than headphones. Oh yeah, more exciting news. According to one of my friends I am officially an adult (whatever that really means anyway). We finally got a couch and a loveseat! No more futon... They are red, beautiful couches.
Ha, I bet you thought I was pregnant?! 
Well, I've babbled about pretty much things that are of no significance in life. All I've talked about, in the end, will burn. Kinda sad isn't it. I am excited for these things, and do not want to be-little God's blessings, but to be honest who really cares. (How quickly I change from trivial to serious)
Let me get serious here for a second, and say that God has trully been challenging me. It's hard, but good. I've been so afraid to be vocal about Christ. I'm not talking about being vocal when it's easy, I'm talking about being vocal when it's hard, and I mean hard. For instance, I was at the gym, minding my own business and God placed it on my heart to pray for a man, specifically for healing. I'm not talking about praying for him while I'm running on the treadmill. No, God wanted me to go to this man whom I don't know, and pray for him. How I tried to deny it was God, but my pastor said in short (and it has stuck with me) "these ideas or thoughts come to you mind are from God and not from yourself or from satan because our flesh is sinful and there's no way sin can think in the spiritual" (I hope I'm making sense. If I'm not I'll try to explain further in the next blog). Anyway, I passed it off as long as I could and hoped for something to happen where I could rationalize my diobedience. Well, it happend, it was just me and him in this one room (levi went to get his bag) and I mustered up all the courage and went for it. I found out that this man was in a car accident at the age of 18. It was the summer before he was going to leave for college and this car accident paralyzed him on his right side. He is now in his mid thirties and has been at that gym for 15yrs trying to rehabilitate as best as he can. I asked him if I could pray for him and we stood there in the middle of the gym and I prayed for his healing and for his salvation. Praise God I was obedient and for the strength to just go for it. I haven't seen this man since and don't know his current situation. Part of me hopes he is healed, but more importantly I hope he has come to know Jesus Christ as his Savior. I am thankful for the obedience and hope that next time God puts something on my heart I am quicker to be obedient. Don't ya just love it when God takes you out of your comfort zone.

| Here I am writing/typing another blog. I'm only doing it because I realize that I haven't written in a while. I don't really have much to say. I'm stoked about some upcoming possibility, but can't say just what it is right now. Levi and I just got back from Columbia, SC. We were able to see a few friends, but not for very long. Bummer, but hopefully they'll come down for Labor Day. I got to feed Alaina's fish, that was entertaining. God has been so good to Levi and I. Even in the little things, He provides above and beyond. Okay, well signing off...

| Levi and I celebrated our third year anniversary on June 28th. We decided to go to Epcot in Disney World. It was awesome, we had a great time just haning out and getting a chance to relax. Surprisingly enough, the lines at Epcot weren't long at all, the longest time we were in line was for 15min.
I can't believe it, three years. Seems like we just got married, but at the same time seems like I've known Levi my whole life. I love marriage and being married. It just keeps on getting better!
