nc {blog}

so here i am in my office/the spare bedroom in our new apartment in fayetteville, north carolina. my desk is set up, my cabinet is set up...and there is a ton of junk just laying all over the floor because i have yet to decide where to put it. kyle is in the living room either watching the olympics or playing battlefield and laughing at me because i don't have a chair for my computer yet. so i've propped up a few pillows and am laying in the floor with my wireless keyboard in my lap and my wireless mouse on a book to my right. quite lazy, but not as uncomfortable as you'd think. we make due.

i took a ton of pictures along the way from texas to here. a lot of them on my phone, but some places were just too pretty for iphone photography. like cotter, arkansas...and the hummingbirds! and the north carolina rest-stop. it was beautiful! there were actual flowers. and we got to see some of the appalachain mountains, kyle said they were.

this is my grandma's dog beau. he's soooooo preciuos. love him.

and here's my husband at the cotter bridge in arkansas. so beautiful.

hummingbirds!

nc rest stop was so pretty. flowers everywhere.

kyle fancies himself a photographer. he wouldn't give my camera back.

i can't wait to get started with photography here! there are so many pretty places downtown and around town too. i'm going to have to do some exploring for sure. and networking. i know a grand total of 4 people here, not counting kyle. it'll get better though, we've been here less than a week.. i'm really excited to go to some of the homecomings for soldiers coming back from deployments and photographing their families coming together. pretty sure i'll be crying the whole time.

in the meantime, i'll be looking for a more stable job. partly because kyle said i have to, and partly because i'll go absolutely insane sitting at home by myself all day every day. noooo thank you. so that begins tomorrow. wish me luck!
