Hey y'all, it has been far too long since I have been able to catch up with y'all! It's  a week before Thanksgiving! I can not believe it! I have been so busy with family, church events, and getting photos out for Christmas Cards it has really snuck up on me. I wanted to catch y'all up on what all has been going on and I realized I have no idea where to start! So let me start by saying this.... I am so thankful for each and everyone of you!! I can not believe how God continues to put the right people in my life over and over ! I can believe it, but it never ceases to amaze me. 

 I want to take a few minutes to reflect on what I am thankful for: 

I am thankful for my hubby who has been the one to push and encourage me every step of the way these last 6-12 months.

I am thankful for my mom who instilled this creative side in me and love for photography. She is my number 1 fan and right hand woMAN! I love that we share this as mother and daughter. 

I am thankful for my sweet babies who are free models and give me great experience on how to handle cranky toddlers. I get lots of practice with them. :). 

I am thankful for the rest of my family who has supported me, let me practice on them, and been there even when I was terrible! 

I am thankful for the rights that I have as a woman to own and operate my own business. This has been one of the most daunting tasks I have ever set my mind to accomplish ( other then raising babies). 

God has blessed me with the best clients, friends, and family members. I cannot express in words what it truly means to me to get to actually live out a dream. This was not always my dream... but I am so glad I followed that small voice saying this was for me!  

I feel so honored and humbled that so many of you have shared huge milestones and sweet memories with me. I know how important it is to trust the person on the other side of that camera! It can be so intimidating feeling like everyone can see the real you. I hope that if there is a message you take away from this little blog post its that everyone is beaultiful and we all have a story to tell. 

So to all you BEAUTIFUL people- THANK YOU! Thank you for giving me the privilege to watch your story unfold through crying kids, sweet engagement kisses, and those precious newborns and Everything in between. I love when I here people tell their family members: Yep Lindsay will still be taking little Johnny's photos when he is 25! It warms my heart when I am like one of the family and my kids are invited to your kids party just because you do not want me to miss out on spending time with my family. All your kind words on facebook and Instagram have not gone unnoticed either. I cherish each other them. 

I hope and pray you & you family have a Blessed Thanksgiving ! I ask that you contemplate your list of Blessings, make sure to thank the Big man upstairs again while you are at it! :) Here are a few fall families to share with you !!
