Vargas Family
I had a great time capturing the Vargas family. Drew is such a cutie! He has the best personality and was happy for two family sessions.

At the end of the day...
At the end of the day this is what it is all about...
Amanda,
We love the pictures! They really came out great! We were really surprised as to how many photos you captured of the reception for only being one person. :)
Yes, I got a job in Bryan and have been working as an elementary music teacher. I had my first music program last week and have another in two weeks for Veterans Day! Life has been crazy as a first year teacher. I was amazed as to how you worked as a teacher and a photographer, and now I am even more amazed!!! Keep up the great work, you did an amazing job at capturing our wedding!

Wedding Albums
Brides...if you are wanting to show off your wedding album at Christmas I need your suggested picture numbers ASAP.
Holiday deadline for me to submit to Leather Craftsmen is November 23rd. I need your numbers no later than next Monday (November 2nd). That gives time to design your album and submit for the November 23rd deadline.

Check-In, Vegas!
4:00 a.m. arrived much too quickly this morning. I rubbed my tired eyes and was quickly put in fast forward motion by Josh. My husband does not like the way I pack, the way I HAVE to have breakfast first thing in the morning, the way I love to sit and love on my kitty. I have my own pace. The pace of meeting the morning with a full tummy and love in my heart. All that was quickly erased by the fact that I did not finish packing last night.
However, my pal Dale entered the house with a joyful hello. Uncle Dale is taking care of Henry & Sara (and the unmentionable kitties outside). It soothed my soul knowing my little Henry will have someone to cuddle and love him. (Dale, he loves it when you kiss his cute little button nose.)
We said our good-byes. Shut the door and off we went. I softly asked, "do you think I could have breakfast now?" I could tell that he was not excited by the fact that he had to stop. Breakfast, check.
Rushed by the yellow spotted bus, I threw my bags on the rack and found a seat. 5:30 a.m. is much too early to be alert. Rushed again! Quickly exit the bus and gather belongings. Belongings, check.
A very nice gentleman could tell I was a little dazed and said mam I can check you in at the curb. Well thank you Mr. Continental. How would you like to pay for your TWENTY DOLLAR bag fee? What? Continental went up again on their bag fee? Mrs....your bag is overweight. Overweight by 7 pounds! My 7 pounds was going to cost me another FIFTY DOLLARS. He said you are welcome to take things out of this bag and stuff in the other bag. "Let's try it again, he said." "Three pounds, I will turn my head." Thank you Mr. Continental.
Check-in, check.
Finally we made it to the gate. Time to spare, a very nice feeling. Josh starts looking around and then he looks at me, "where are you flashes?" Camera bag, check. Purse, check. Laptop bag, check. Light stands, check. Oh my! Where are they? Oh my! Oh my! I call the yellow spotted bus and was relieved to hear a lady exclaim that they had been looking for me! The nice yellow spotted bus met Josh at entrance e. Yep, back through security for a second time.
I am awake! My little experience almost cost me $$$$.
Kisses to my wonderful husband, Mr. Continental man, Yellow spotted bus lady, and MGM Grand for having our room ready at 9am.
My outlook is that I feel lucky today. With that said...I am out the door to try my luck!
