It all began with getting ready to go to Chicago last week for a photographer's conference. We had to get the kids packed, get packed ourselves, make sure all our camera gear was cleaned and packed, still do the ordinary things that a week entails, and get the kids to the Engineer's parents. Then of course, I felt the house should be clean before we leave -- you know just in case someone decided to rob us. I wouldn't want them to think we were slobs ;o)!
The conference was amazing!! We learned soooo much. In fact, it was a little overwhelming at times. The Wednesday evening, we headed up the road a bit to hear another photographer speak. Her business is incredible! Thirty-five employees! Not what we have in mind, but she still had lots of great ideas and pointers for the small photography businesses too. Sam was done speaking at 11:00 pm Chicago time, and we headed home. We drove straight through and arrived home at six am our time. The Engineer and I crashed for a few hours and then met his parents half way to pick up the kids.
Then it was cook, clean, conquer Mt. Laundry, and finally mow the lawn because we were supposed to have company coming. Sean and Aimee Dayton were going to spend part of the weekend with us, but their plans changed a bit too, so we simply enjoyed an evening of song, fellowship, and food with them. (Just a little plug for Sean and Aimee. You can find their music on itunes. It's a very beautiful testimony of their faith)!
Sean and Aimee are in the middle.
Awaiting our moment on stage. My grade four girls did actions to the song of which I can't remember right now :os.
