I hope everyone has enjoyed the summer! The hustle and bustle of enjoying the warm weather and sunshine always takes a toll on the Hough household – we don’t know the meaning of “Lazy Summer Days” here. Since moving to the Lakes Region we’ve made some great friends and have had lots of fun with them going on hikes, swimming in Lake Winnipesaukee, and picking summer fruit – to name just a few of our fun activities. My energy level has also taken a toll, in part to some exciting news that I can now share…
That’s right! We found out in early May, which is why things have been quiet around the blog and business. Now that I’m over the most of the early pregnancy symptoms I can function like normal human being again! It goes without saying that we are completely over the moon with this news!
Speaking of news – I am about to launch my quarterly newsletter, “Behind the Lens”. It’s a great way for me to share with you what’s going on for promotions and events, some tips for improving your own photography, spotlight on the products I offer, featured photography sessions and maybe a recipe or two! Please sign up here to check it out! The first edition is going out later this week and will feature the information on this year’s Mini Sessions!!!
Back in March I wrote about KRide (check out the post if you missed it) and I’m happy to say that Martin and I both completed the 25-mile ride in about 2.5hrs. It was a great ride, a great day and I’m hoping to be able to ride it again next June. I had said then that anyone who donated $50 or more to sponsor me for the ride would be entered into a drawing for a complimentary session and 11″x14″ print. I’m happy to announce that a few people did take me up on that offer, and the lucky winners are Peter and Heather Hodgson! I’ll be in touch to set up details soon Peter and Heather! I am still so very thankful to everyone for their contributions. We ended up raising $7,524 as a team this year – an incredible amount that will do such good!!!
Check back tomorrow for the August blog circle featuring some fun lake pictures to celebrate “Water!”
Carey,
So glad to hear your “expansion” news and that Peter and I have won your little competition. I’m very impressed by the photos of yours that I’ve seen.
I know that you’re coming over to the UK some time later this year and hope that we can set up the photos then.
🙂
