My husband, Kurt, was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung cancer on June 25th, 2013. At that point he was given 12-18 months to live.  He has undergone radiation, chemo, several different scans and we are currently under an oncologist's care. The dr just looked at the current scans and told us that Kurt is good to go for at least another 3-5 months.  We are taking one day at a time, and just enjoying each other and our kids.

He is feeling good and is still going to work every day.

I am still taking appointments, so if you would like pictures of your kids just give me a call!

We had such a beautiful day for the Raber's wedding.

I have been neglecting my blog!

I have been so busy in the studio, with shooting, and editing, and ordering, that I have been neglecting my blog. Sorry.
I promise to be a better blogger!TTFN, Martha

I am a little behind!

Right before the new year (as in the afternoon of December 31st!) I bought a brand new, super fast, super expensive laptop. I had previously bought refurbished laptops, and have had nothing but trouble with them, so this time I went with new, and then I also bought the 2 year warranty.

About three months into the new year, the screen started 'scrolling' like an old TV. It would happen about once a day for a few seconds at a time. Then it started happening 4-5 times a day, and then one day in May it died. so so sad.

I took it back to Best Buy and explained to the 'Geeks' that it was important that I get it fixed ASAP because it is my main work computer. And that I needed to take it on vacation with me so that I could work on vacation. I took it in May 22. I got it back June 3rd. Right away I saw that it wasn't working properly, but we were leaving on vacation June 5th, so I had to take it as it was.

About halfway through vacation, it quit working again. So frustrating. I took it back to Best Buy the day we got home (June 19th). They still have it! I am crossing my fingers that it comes in tomorrow.

In the meantime, I am using a 5 year old desktop, which might not seem old to you, but for a computer it is ancient! It is really slow, and takes me twice as long to do things as it normally does on my laptop.

So, I am sorry that I am a little behind in my editing. I hope to get the other computer back soon and then I will get caught up!! I hope!!
TTFN, Martha

We are home.....

Fractured foot.....=(

Yesterday while shooting an engagement session I slipped in my shoes and fell and now I have a slight fracture in my foot.....and my laptop died, and I have a bad cold....and a wedding tomorrow.

So, if you are waiting for proofs, you will have to wait a little longer....sorry! I will be on my feet most of the day tomorrow, but I hope to elevate it and rest on Sunday. Then I will get back to work on Monday.

Just one for Robyn!

LOL.....here ya go!

Brand new.....

It is no secret that I absolutely *love* newborn babies! I especially love sleepy ones! Baby Luke was a week old, and very, very sleepy!
His parents waited for him for a long time, but as you can see he was worth the wait! He is just perfect!




I hope that you like these! I will have more tomorrow!
TTFN! Martha

Blog Spam

I was hit hard with spam in my comments section for the past two weeks. I have now changed my comments to be approved by me before they are published.

So keep leaving comments and I will moderate them and post them for you.....just have to be careful I guess!
