This is my cousin Nate and his fiance, Kayla. They are just the cutest. It was Saturday, June 9th and we started out in Woodbury with the first two outfits and then drove to Downtown Mpls and did another outfit there and another one at Target Field.

4 outfits, over 400 pictures taken and 5 hours later we were spent.

Here are my fave pics from the 4 different outfits.

I am linking up with Becky for the 411.


1. How long have you been blogging? And what got you started on blogging? Has your blog changed?

March of 2010. My Husband and I had decided to start a family and I wanted to get my blog up and going before I was actually pregnant. I had some high school Facebook friends that were posting about their blogs with their family happenings and I thought it was a great idea. I'm a scrapbooker, but have fallen in love with blogging. It's so much easier, fast and cheaper!

P.S. I still scrapbook. I can't totally give it up.

My blog is about my life...Hailey, Wayne, my pups, social media, tv, movies, fashion. Anything and everything.

2. Did you go to college? If so where, and what did you study?

Minnesota School of Business. Associate's in Applied Science for Paralegal. Have been in the law field since 2003.

3. Where have you traveled?

Mostly to Florida. Husband had family there. They moved to New York 2 years ago and we just took our first trip to visit them at the end of June.

I have been to LA once for a work trip for the Hubs.

Kansas a few times when I was young to visit family.

Arkansas to visit family a couple times in the last couple years.

I have never been outside of the US, but hope to go someday!

4. If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would buy?

A house. In the process of looking, but not seeing anything I love.

5. What are your 3 biggest pet peeves?

1. Ignorant people.
2. Sitting in traffic.
3.People who don't know common courtesy.

6. What is your favorite movie?

Depends on my mood. I love Taken with Liam Neeson. I love 17 Again with Zac Efron. I love Sweet Home Alabama with Resse Witherspoon. I could watch these movies over and over again.

7. What is your drink of choice; wine, beer, or liquor. Or Water, Soda, Tea?

Non-alcoholic: coke or water
Alcoholic: Riesling or Pinot or Mich Golden Light

8. What is something you enjoy to do when you have me time?

Blog, TV/DVR, read, scrapbook, photography.

Don't have much time to read since Hailey was born, but I still try and fit it in when I can.

9. If you could have a $10,000 shopping spree to one store, which store would it be?

Target. You can find anything and everything there.

10. Share with us an embarrassing moment of your past? Or present.

The only thing I can think of is sometimes in certain heels I can be clumsy and I can trip over my feet. That can be a weekly occurrence.

11. What day would you love to relive again?

My wedding day. Hands down. I loved it so much. It was perfect and I wouldn't have changed anything about it

Most people pick their children's birth days, but Hailey's wasn't great for her or me, so I rather not re-live that.

12. If your life was turned into a movie... what actor would play you?

Jennifer Garner. I've been told I look like her, which is OK in my book. Plus I totally LOVE everything about her.

13. What are the jobs you had in high school/college/the early years?

I had one. Photographer at Proex. I started when I was 16 and did that until I was 20, out of college and had a legal job.

14. Show us a picture from high school or college.

My digital pics start in 2005. This is summer 2005. The summer before my Grandpa passed. I was 22 in this picture.

That's me. Top left in the white shirt.

15. If you could travel anywhere in the world, all expenses paid, where would you go?

Greece. I have always wanted to go there. And I mean the Greece you see in the movies. Yes, that Greece.

16. Show us the most current picture of you or you and your family.

3

The 3 of us on our plane ride to New York. Love it!

17. Where do you see your life 5 years from now?

Going on 11 years of marriage (Going on 6 right now).
Hailey starting school with a younger sibling (or 2).
In a house...finally.
Still in the family law field as a paralegal somewhere.
Still doing photography on the side.
Still loving and living life.

Thanks for visiting!
