HEY.

What do you do when your toddler is napping - the house is completely clean (WHAT that never happens) and your husband is out of town. Write a random blog post I guess?

Here are some thoughts of the day.

Last year, the 2017 U.S. Open was the first time I really followed a tennis tournament from start to finish. Jett was about a month old and it really gave me something to look forward to every evening. So I was very excited for the opportunity to actually GO this year for Brandon's 30th birthday

Before we start, I want to let you know that it brings me so much joy to share what I have learned, in hopes that it helps YOU if you have even the slightest interest in shooting better photos. You may be a mom who wants to take better pictures of your family, a blogger who wants to shoot captivating content that sets you apart from others, or maybe theres no other reason to learn other than you have a budding interest!

The world just keeps expanding daily for Jett as his ability to walk (or run!) gives him the means to explore on his own terms! As a family, it has been so much fun to try new activities this summer as Jett gets older. We have been to toystores before, but never when Jett could walk around and play himself. We stopped in the Learning Tree at Park Place in Leawood, and he was so excited to check everything out that once I set him down - he was off!
