I have decided to challenge myself this year to take a photo for everyday of the year 2011. From this challenge I would like to become a better photographer, learn more about my equipment, lighting and expand my creativity! I think this will be a great way to look back on the year! As well as learning to Treasure those little moments and things that make us smile on a daily basis!

Cutest kids ever!
It's hard to believe that my lil boy is only a few months older than his cute lil cuz, I just got big kids! LOL. She is gettin so grown now!! They play well together and that is awesome! I wish they could see each other more than 2 or 3 times a year. :( But it's a good time when we do get to see our family!! We love you!!

Totally Awesome Day!!
Today was awesome! I came to visit my mom, I have missed her so much, my grandparents & finally my uncle chuck! He is the coolest uncle EVER! && I Love him very much! He was sitting at the table taking out this old camera, and showing me about it and how it works and then he said "it's yours", idk why I was so excited about an old camera that I will prob never be able to use, but i was STOKED! I was like , are you serious?? ha ha . Yippeee!! So today my picture is of my uncle & my new, old camera!
Then what made this day even better is getting a phone call from my dad!! That was awesome! I can't wait to see him & hang out with him!!! I love you daddy, mama, & chuckie poo!

Wisdom
When I photograph my elder elder's I think of wisdom! Because they have been through so much more than the young people in this world! They think differently, act different and usually make better decisions, they have remedies that are cost efficient and work, that the younger people would have never thought of! One thing I try to do when I visit family is get some photos of our grandparents/ great grandparents! I love the wisdom that you can see through their eyes & in their wrinkles! I hope you enjoy this photo for today!

Good Bye Fort Bragg....
Tonight is the last night me & the kids will be staying in what has become our home! We arrived here in November of 2007. Just me & the hubby, we had 3 bedrooms! WOW! and nothing to put in them! I remember I was doing cartwheels in the living room!
It seemed as soon as we moved in we got pregnant with our son! We found out Dec 6 that we were expecting! How exciting!!! We get to decorate one of those empty rooms!! Lil man arrived in Aug & hubby had to go back overseas 3 weeks later. Thank God my mom was here to help me! He was a hand-full! She taught me that in order for him to be calm, I must remain calm, finally I mastered the art of "calmness" or patience you may say! The first year of his life was so many new things!!! He learned how to sit up in what is now his sissy's room! He took his first steps right here in the living room and now he runs around playing with his cheap super hero men from Mc D's when he has a ton of toys! Our house went from empty and boring to toys r us in a year! Then May 6 2009 we found out we were expecting another baby! She arrived Dec. 2010 and is now a beautiful bubbly baby girl!
Even though we had many other memories of hanging with friends, cookouts, rock band, scentsy, 31, and baby showers! Those are some of my most fond memories here! I have enjoyed making so many new friends and finding a great church to go to! I hope that all of my friends will continue to keep in touch! I will always be a phone call away!! so here is good bye to Caquiny loop!
This is our first PCS and its really hard! I never thought it would be so hard to move since I moved all my life but I guess having children & having memories here and actually making friends makes things harder! (I usually don't make friends to easy) ha ha.
Like they say, you are married to the Military , not your husband!
On another note, I have created a new blog for my photography! I wanted a fresh look and something to post the newest photos on for the New location! I will be using this blog from now on, so please follow me there! Here is the link ---->Lenay Glover Photography

Road Trip!
I have traveled many days of my life! Sometimes it was fun and sometimes not so much! But I've never been as organized as i am now! With 2 kids you gotta pack like double!! And then you got to make sure you got Everything they need on top of everything you need! I placed it all in one spot and was like there is no way all of this is fitting in my car! Including all the clothes we are giving to family , snacks etc! So here is my pic of the day! I may not be blogging every day from here on because I may not always have the Internet! But I will definitely be taking photos!!

simply you!
Today I took a lot of pics! Some a pretty lil tutu model and others of a College Graduate! Two totally different worlds! But this pic is my favorite of the day, I love the simple pics where your child isn't showing off, crying or just avoiding you, the ones where, they don't even know your there! Simple & meaningful! I love you sweet lil man! !

Manna!
Today we went to Manna Church with one of my friends here! I was happy she invited me to go with her because I haven't been in a while and I need to go! They talked about Marriage! That we should pray together, do things we are interested in, have a bible study and more! It was good! I ran into one of my friends there when I was picking up lil man, I did photos for her a few times and she was always really nice! I'm gonna miss my friends here! Lil man made some artwork in children's church! He didn't want to go, but he must have enjoyed himself! Baby girl was fussy half the time! I think she is growing because she was still hungry and I had fed her right before church! We stopped by Mc' D's to get some fast food and we were almost home and I spilt my sweet Tea all over my self! LOL it was so cold! Later on today we went to one of my other friends for a cookout! (she is moving too, so that is nice)! Today was pretty good!

Beautiful Day!
Today the weather was amazing! Not too hot , just enough wind, and not cold! YAY. it was awesome! Me & hubby took the kiddos to sonic. We ate & lil man played! He had so much fun! He ate an ice cream on the way home and did pretty good about not making a huge mess! I was impressed! It was nice to spend time as a whole family , just hanging out and enjoying each other, no rush to do anything specific!
Later on I took some pics of my baby girl in this hat my friend made me! It's about too small for my giganta kid, it took me an hour to get this ONE good picture! But I love it & it was worth it!

We love u & will miss you!
Today my mom left our home to go to another :) She was always here to help out when we needed it! It was so nice to have her here with us, spending time together, shopping and making new cool things! But change always come along at one time or another. Sometimes it is good and sometimes it's not! I always try to see everything in a positive way! I miss my mom, but I know she is always a phone call away when I need to her! We love you Nana!

31 Bags!
Today I picked up my 31 bag! It's so pretty & it has my initials on it! The thing I love about 31 bags is the roots of the company! Created from Proverbs 31.
She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still night;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her female servants.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
31 Honor her for all that her hands have done,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
I feel like I am growing towards becoming a Vurtuos Woman! I want to be what God created me to be!
Proverbs 31:10-31 (New International Version, ©2011)
Epilogue: The Wife of Noble Character

I'm now down to 133, that is 44 pounds less from pregnancy and around 10 pounds less than pre pregnancy! however, I still have a pooch in my tummy!
