So this past weekend I finally worked! And I mean I really worked - sweating every ounce of water out of me. Audrey and Jim got married in southern Virginia and I got the honor of being their photographer. See pictures here.
Unfortunately, that big Virginia storm knocked down trees and power in the area. By the time we got there the tree was cleared out of the road, but still no power or running water in the prep building. The Lodge where the reception was held still had a generator, but for 10 hours we felt what the early pioneers felt - record high temperatures! So although that made things more fast paced because no one wanted to be in a suit for long, we did get some good fancy shots along the countryside (props to the bride and groom). It's harder for me to take formal photos when I don't do it regularly, but I think everything turned out great even with the heat. It was beautiful. I can't wait to take some weekend hiking trips.
Mr Smith came along since it was on a Saturday and I told the groom (who is a photographer, intimidation right?!) if he wanted Eric to take pictures with his camera. Mr Smith now wants to start his own portfolio ;) But he had to give his camera back. Mr Smith isn't a complainer though and certainly knows how to work hard. Life is so much easier with him by my side. Well, for the most part ;)

I've started P90X. Well ya know, with breaks. Thank you Mrs Lori Smith. We both know we don't exercise out of habit, but we wanted to do something. We are so close to making it a full 30 minute workout. I whine the-entire-time. My quads are still shaking.
So that's life.
I made dinner last night and it was delicious.
Mr Smith asks if he can add sauce to it
I go, you mean spaghetti sauce?
That's right folks, you can't make things too fancy for Mr Smith
He likes the old fashioned Ragu.
But seriously, the Pesto sauce was plenty and so good.
Mrs Lori also shared her Best Bites Cookbook with me.
We're trying the Lasagna later this week.
Speaking of, I still need to clean up the dinner remains.
Eeek, I know! I'm normally pretty good about that, but it's picture time so I'm distracted.
Alright, I need to go wash this salt off of me and eat some leftovers.
Enjoy the 4th!
