Edwards Haps and Mishaps

I need to post more. I know Aunt Sharon gets ticked when there is no new material :) What’s new in our lives? I am starting to help a professional photographer in our ward…who is AMAZING…and she did our wedding photo’s…she is starting to teach me how to be a fantastic photographer. The other day I went over there and she showed me the settings she uses on her camera to get the best shot and then took me start to finish on editing a photo to make it look awesome. So, I may post some of my work on here from time to time and I expect honest answers. No fluff. I am pretty excited. I have always loved taking pictures and now maybe this can become a talent!

Preston just gets more fun and energetic every day. He has started saying “bye-bye” and waving…pretty much the cutest thing I have ever seen…I hope he will do it for Shaun’s family when we see them next month! He now has 2 teeth coming through on top and the other 2 on top are coming in soon. Standing by himself is becoming easier and we keep practicing walking but I am sure I will wish he were crawling again as soon as he starts walking!! Splashing in the pool is one of his favorite things to do.

Shaun is on the search for a decent job…the one in Folsom turned out not to be what he had expected…or really didn’t exist…hmmm, yeah, that was weird…so he is looking again. Since the economy is so great out here (read that sarcastically) finding a job has been torture. Free rent is great (living at my parents) but with such a horrible job market, it’s hard to know what to do. Something will work out, it always does. We are trying hard to do what we are supposed to and be obedient, so we will be blessed somehow!

Shaun and I went on a date Kayaking today. The CSUS aquatic center rents out a bunch of water sport equipment for pretty cheap so we rented a tandem kayak and got a good work out. We also saw some huge fish…I think Shaun wished he had his pole. Life is good, it isn’t perfect by any means, but it’s good.
