So sorry guys for not having the link party up this past Friday. Life happened. Its getting close to school starting, the house needed cleaning, there was a lot on my mind, so this friday there will be a link party for sure.
Just wanted to update you on a few things that have been happening around my world and my blog...s.
Im also participating in the Miscellany Monday. Here is the Miscellany..
One - if you notice on my right left side bar, there is a new area for upcoming posts. So if you want to know whats coming, just check out over there and you will know. Now this is not 100% the order that the post will go in, but this is what ive been working on and want to get up on my blog.
Two - I was featured today or yesterday, which ever it was. But I was featured for my Billiards Baby shower. Super stoked about that. Go check it out. You can see the feature here and the original post here. PS.. I love Bird Craft's blog. Shes great.
Three - I just got the photos from a wedding i did back in May. They turned out great. I will be posting those up probably on my Wedding blog, but maybe on this blog as well. We shall see.
Four - Jon - not so secretly - wants to get a dog. We have been looking at Boston Terriers. I think they are adorable and would love to have a little pup around the house all the time. I dog sit my moms dogs all the time and love every minute of it. I think i just really love animals. But if we find one, for a good price, Ill def post pics asap.
Five - Football has offically started. I started to like LOVE the sport last fall. I havent offically "picked" my favorite team yet, but hopefully this season I will. I needed to watch two seasons to see which one was worth routing for.
Six - We.. when i say we, I mean jon and I, are throwing around the idea of me going back to work for a few months. I might have the oppurtunity to go back to work while the boys are in school, like from 9-2. It would be great because we could sock away all that income and possibly pay off our cars, or we could take the income and invest it in my wedding business for advertising costs. Im pretty sure I will work some, but just not sure what we will do with the income.
What do you think? Pay off our cars or invest in building the wedding business more?
Boston Terriers are SO cute! There was a little "girl" in our puppy school class(Beagle Mama, here!). It's so fun to look for and find THE one(s)!!! Wishing you the best!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of "upcoming posts!" Congrats on being featured, I know the few times that has happened it always makes my day. :)I'd say invest, but maybe set some aside towards the investment and some towards paying off the cars. And yay for football starting, go Chicago Bears! ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday, new follower via MM!

Love your thoughts about going back to work - I was all set to start working towards being ready to teach when our youngest is ready to go to school, the the economy crashed and teaching became a like zero growth industry. So now I'm blogging and teaching online photography classes and trying to turn that into my part time job.
ReplyDeleteI think you should invest your income from a part time job into advertising your wedding photography - you'll get a better return on your investment! :)
My first time on your blog. I love ribbons. I have a daughter who is crazy about them too! Regarding work, wedding are big business. It might be a good idea to get that business going well. Just a thought. Oh, I used to work for someone who had a Boston Terrier. They are awesome dogs! I've never heard bad things about them from anyone.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I am not debt free (wishing I was!), I think paying off the cars first, then you can use those payment amounts ,plus your income, to really boost your wedding business. I like Boston Terriers, they are so cute! I LOVE FOOTBALL!!!!! My son played for our local youth team, and of course, it was the Cowboys (I always hated the Cowboys!), but now, after cheering for him for 3 years, and watching the (NFL) real Cowboys, I now am a fan...Go Cowboys! :)
