Marriage = Fun!

As of Sunday July 25th, Mark and I have been married for 10 months. Time has flown by! I can't believe in two short months from now we will have been 1yr married and almost two years together. I guess time flys when you are having fun and I LOVE every minute I get to spend with my sweetheart! Today I came home with a mingrain headache which made me feel like I was going to throw up and decided to go to sleep. Mark came home and saw me sleeping and came and lied down next to me. He held me close, kissed my head and did something to make me laugh. We began talking and laughing and I didn't even feel my headache anymore, the man is my medicine! What a fun and loving man I married, I am truly blessed to have Mark. Te quiero mi amor!

Meet Me at Maynards










Almost every Monday at 5pm, Mark and I go to an event here in Tucson called 'Meet Me at Maynards'. We go on a 3 to 5 mile walk around downtown Tucson and look at some of the historic sites. It is a great way for us to get excersise together and we get to see some pretty cool places that we would have missed out on if we had never gone. I decided to bring my camera along this week to capture some of the things we see on our walks. Tucson is a really cool place, I love it here!

I Love My Models!














































This past saturday I took Elizabeth, Sarah, Rebecca and Mom out to trail dust town to help me practice taking pictures. IT WAS SO HOT! It was probably 105 degrees out side and me, being as cruel as I am, told the girls to come take pictures outside! Rebecca was sweating like crazy and the other two were trying to be good sports, but it was just so hot. But, they were still georgous in every photo. Mom was an amazing model too...even if she was taking over direction of the pictures...bum :) We had a lot of fun, even though we melted like popcicles.

I am George Castanza!


MARK ANDREA

The other night Mark and I were driving home from the store, when he turned to me and said, "honey, I have realized something...I am like Jerry Seinfeld, and you are like George Castanza." Before I decided to be offended by his statement, I thought about it and realized just how true he was! If anyone watches seinfeld, they would know that Jerry always has good things happen to him and George has terrible luck and nothing seems to go right for him. Here are some examples of how Mark is like Jerry Seinfeld:
1. He found 75$ randomly in the backseat of his Car.
2. He won first place in his golf tournament even though he "claims" he was playing the worst he ever has played.
3. His paycheck was bigger then he thought it would be.
And 4, He was able to request the exact schedule he wanted at work.
Now, reasons why I am George Castanza:
1. Cracked windshield
2. Radio in car breaks
3. All classes that I was trying to fill for work were cancelled.
4. My second hand helper from work was fired, leaving me with more work then ever.
5. Got a flat tire this morning after dropping off mark from work.
6. Got sick earlier this week and was in a lot of pain...A LOT of pain.
7. Candid picture moment when my mom wore the same exact outfit as me to go shopping and my batteries in my camera were out! classic.




So, as you can see, I have not had the best of luck this past wek, but...at least mark was able to have good luck, I am very happy for him! I guess next week I will just have to do the opposite of what I did this week. I am just glad I survived :)

Becoming obsessed

I am obsessed with taking pictures! I got a new camera for my birthday, and ever since then I have been taking pictures every chance I get! I will be sitting with mark watching tv, and then I will whip out the camera and take a picture of him. Lately he has been making a groaning, crying sound everytime the flash goes off. It's as if it is burning his skin! Well, he is the one who wanted to support my hobbies...now he gets to be my little super model :) Everywhere I go, driving in cars, sitting in my office, talking to my family, walking around town...all I do is try to find things to take pictures of! Everything is a picture to me, and I want to capture every moment! It is crazy. Soooo...here are some pictures i have taken, I am learning through photography books how to take good pictures. Who knows? Maybe this little obsession will pay off?!
