il-lu-mi-nate: tooth #13 has been spotted!

hey there. welcome to the two-dimensional electronic version of my life. my blog doesn't really have a theme. it's sort of a crazy mix tape of my photographs, thoughts, family and friends, stuff i find interesting... it's kind of the cliff notes version of my full and blessed life.

me in a nutshell...

i'm wife to dave, an amazing man of character; i'm mom to mr. as-happy-as-they-come jonah boy (he's almost 2-1/2) and faith, our daughter in heaven; i'm an aspiring photographer (over the past couple of years God has awakened in me a crazy passion for photography); i'm a daughter, a sister, a friend; i am many things, but above them all i am a Christ-follower.

...hey how did i get into this nutshell anyway? and what kind of shell has a nut like this?
