Striding In

This past week I had a great opportunity to hang out with the Midtown Raleigh Stroller Strides group for their 4th Anniversary "Amazing Race" workout and potluck picnic.  After an extremely wet storm the day before, we had amazing weather that day.  I have always wanted to check out a Stroller Strides class and seriously considered joining, however, my kids and strollers seem to have built other plans that don't really connect.  I had such a blast and can honestly say that I got a workout as well photographing this event!  Thank you ladies for letting me capture this day for you!

Getting class started

What a great group of ladies and kids!

Awesome Instructors!

Settling in and getting adjusted.

I have been back in North Carolina now for about 4 weeks now.  We feel great about this move.  It has been so nice being back to a place that I really loved living in and getting to be with old friends again, however, I can say honestly that I miss my family.  I have been up here living with friends while my husband and kids are back in Florida. By far this has been the hardest thing I have ever done- but I know that it is going to be worth it.  I can at least now say that I am at the countdown point of when the kids will be here, and it is two weeks from tomorrow and I can NOT wait!  My husband will come up with them and stay for a week as we get settled into our place and then he will head back to Florida until he finds a job.  We are hopeful that he won't be too far behind as he has had some promising leads.  

So one may think that with all my "free" time the past 4 weeks I should have numerous amounts of new pictures to post.  I think in most cases that would be accurate, however, not with me.  I don't think that I ever realized how much work and effort goes into trying to schedule a cross state move for a family.  No lie but that has taken such a large amount of my time in addition to adjusting in to my new job.  But that is no excuse and I plan on changing that soon.  I am getting involved with other local photographers and am excited to get the kids out to new spots and of course welcome new families and children into our photographing family.  

I hope that this finds everyone well.  Stay tuned as there will be some new and exciting pictures to come soon!

Enjoy!
