So…I’m sure by now you all have fully realized that Abbie has had a birthday! haha! I’m sorry I haven’t updated my blog in 2 months! Life has been crazy busy! I’ve started babysitting two sweet boys (5 months & 3 1/2 years) and combine them with my two & life is nuts! Mason loves having a buddy play with him around here!
I’ve also started doing some photo sessions for people. A lot of my spare time has been spent editing photos. I’m hoping to launch a website in the spring & officially launch a little photography business. I’m pretty happy with how things have turned out so far! Want a peek?

My business will be called “Across the Miles” in memory of our little guy! I’m excited to get started!
I’ve also been busy scrapbooking & getting Christmas presents ready (which I’m almost done with all of my Christmas shopping!)
Are you forgiving me yet for the 2 months it has taken me to post? Maybe some new layouts of the kids will help! 🙂
Ok…another excuse from me…I decided to do genetic testing to see if I carry the breast cancer gene. After losing my mom at such a young age, and knowing that both of her sisters have had female cancers…I knew I should probably get tested. I was talking to Melissa Lewis online one day and she really encouraged me to do it. So, I talked to my doctor about it and we proceeded with the test. I received a phone call yesterday that I do not carry the breast cancer gene! I was 100% sure that I would’ve carried the gene…it just seemed like it was going to be a given for me since my mom had it. It feels like there is a HUGE weight taken off of my back! There’s definitely a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving!
Let’s see…what else has happened? Oh! Tyler got his first deer on Monday. He killed a button buck (buck without antlers–born this past spring…I’m learning!) It’s been funny watching him be all excited and call his buddies…and we have pics of him and Mason posing with it. They aren’t uploaded yet…and I don’t know that you all really want to see a pic of a dead deer! LOL! We should have lots of deer jerky soon!
Ok…want some more pics?
And…one more funny thing to leave you with! Jessica Hollis made one of these today & it just cracked me up, so I had to give it a try, too!
Hey, I just made a total elf of myself. Check it out by clicking the link below.

Pretty funny, huh?
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!!!
I can’t tell you how happy I am that you finally blogged! I still check every day to see if you updated, and I am thrilled! Yeah, Kellie!
I’m so happy you blogged!! The pictures are all gorgeous, and the title of your business is perfect! I’m serious about wanting you to take our pics the next time you’re in town.
And you know that I am just THRILLED for you that you do not have the gene!
Glad to see an update!! My SIL’s mom died of breast cancer when my SIL was 2 years old. All three sisters (daughters) got tested for the gene and they all came out clean. Glad you got tested!
Great pictures of the kids! THey are sure growing up! Is Millie walking yet??
Kellie, I just happened to peek at your blog today and I’m so happy that you’ve updated. Gorgeous photos and pages, and AWESOME news for you. Very happy for you all.
