Life, Where does it take us?
Many times in life you will find yourself in a situation that makes you smile. Lately we have been smiling way to much. Life is great....But like most everyones life, it has had it's hard times. And us...We have had both, seriously BOTH. So here is a personal blog post that our family has asked us to do every once in a while. They dont think its cool that we have a blog that they check ever other day, and it doesn't even have pictures of us.... So here you go Fam.

The past two weeks have been way to busy. I (candice) was in Boston (shooting with Jessica) for about 4 days. When I got home we headed straight to Hume Lake Christian Camp to shoot an E-session for two days. Marks Band use to be the summer band up there, so it was nice to watch belly-flopping-contest, and eat two milk shakes a day with our Hume Friends.

Then the weekend hit...boom, two "out of this world" weddings are done, and we are in the processes of image selection and editing. To Celebrate our two Weddings we decided to have Three BBQ's in a row. some with our great photo friends and one with our radical Church friends, so yes, I am now a meat eaters to the extreme. Yes fam....I was trying to be a vegetarian, but it SUCKED! side note, I shouldn't say I decided not to be a vegetarian, Mark banded it from my life. He said I was way to mean etc...So I guess I have to get fit some other way.

This post is titled 40,000 viewers because we finally hit one of our goals, which was to have a larger # of viewers.  In january we installed a "visitor tracker" and since then we have hit 40,000 views!!!!  We honestly can't believe that that many people are interested in our lives, but it is kinda awesome.

An interesting conversation that has been circulating among our friends is "when is it time to say "No, no means no". When do you look someone in the eyes and say "I have had enough" Why are we to scared to not stand up for ourselves. This is happening in every area of our lives, and ironically our friends lives. In our business and our personal lives we have found it hard to say NO. But the awesome thing about the word NO, is you can say Yes to a lot more. 

The funny story of the weeks is about Hoperton... Our 10 pound, lop eared bunny who is an escape artist. Like most of you know we got her when we were in the apartment complex in Orange. I was "lonely" and I needed a fluffy friend. Well, when we moved to Ladera I had to cage her into a small corner in our back yard. Well for the past three months she has found every single way to escape. I secretly feel ok when this happens because I know she is having a wonderful night on the town. But unfortunately I feel guilty not catching her when she runs across our front yard. So for the past months we have gone through the dance of: her escaping, me catching her, and then watching another escape. It is quite entertaining but annoying. I want to just leave her in Victors backyard. He has 4 kids and I know he would never notice. 

And the last thing I would like to inform everyone about is our adventure of house hunting. Yes, we are looking to buy another house here in Ladera Ranch. We have this whole crazy plan, and I think it might actually work. Don't freak dad... We got it under control.

For all of you who could care less about what was written in the last 100 paragraphs here are some fun photos we took of ourselves at our last wedding. Yes, we do like to party!
