The start of a beautiful thing

This is the start of something new - My blog.  I decided to start a blog for a few reasons.

• I started a blog for Alex's photography business, Candidly Elegant Photography and it's been a lot of fun. I've found now when we're shooting weddings that I consciously make an effort to look for stuff to blog about - makes blogging easier.
• B/c of blogging for Candidly Elegant, I started visiting a bunch of other blogs - some are other photographers, some are friends at church, and some are old friends.  I will post links to those blogs that I read later....I really just want to get this FIRST post off my plate.
• I get so much out of other people's blogs.  It's so fun and refreshing to realize that everyday life is SO INTERESTING....when it's not yours.

So I hope that you enjoy our blog. I hope that it gives some insight into my life.  I will warn you that my gut feeling is that my life is pretty boring - alex and are workaholics and relaxaholics.  How does that work? you ask yourself?  Well, we work really really hard - and then we we stop we relax really really hard.  We swing to either end of the spectrum.

I promise to try to keep it interesting. (by the way, I know that this turned out all funky - and I know how to avoid it in the FUTURE, but I can't fix it now that it's done....sorry.)

Shaleen.
