2011

a recap of our 2011

{this is a REAL post so don't say i didn't warn you}

in january | i lost my graphic design job. i was laid off which at the time was terrifying but a blessing in disguise-- as i had big plans for my year.
in february | i started this blog & slowly started milliemorganmedia. wow, i had no idea how fast it would take off in a year. i thank you all for the support not only with my blog but my business. milliemorganmedia had so many wonderful clients in 2011.
in march | i started a new job taking school photos. i loved this job. i adored this job. i never realized how important photography was to me, until this experience. interstate studio- i thank you for this experience.
in april | i planned my first baby shower, madison had her first dentist appointment, and i got to take prom pictures--which was my most fun day on the job
in may | madison had her very first dance recital & we went to the beach
in june | madison started soccer
in july | we celebrated matt's birthday, my birthday, & our anniversary by taking a trip into the city of charlotte for a long weekend. it was perfect. we also decided it was time to for another baby so on july 12th- we got mirena taken out in hopes of adding to our family.
in august | madison turned 4 & went to bible school. we had a huge superhero themed pool party for her & i must say, it was a great. we also found out we were pregnant. 
in september | i photographed my very first wedding and madison started pre-school. the doctor also confirmed our pregnancy with the due date of may 26th and we got to see our baby.
in october | we were busy-- traveled to nc, friends got married, photographed more weddings, had more sessions, pregnancy appointments, etc. nothing too exciting happened in october just a lot of morning sickness.
in november | i got offered a job. i turned down the job. we lost our baby. 
in december | we mourned, we celebrated, but most importantly we remember how truly blessed we are to have such caring & wonderful family & friends. 2011 had plenty of ups and downs but we're ready for a fresh start in 2012 with a lot of resolutions and plans. thank you for your support friends & family--- bring it on 2012! 

{for a photographer, you'd think i'd have more photos to share but here are just a few of my favorites from 2011---ALSO i watch and listen to this song every new year so i thought i'd share it with you} 

happy new year | see you 2012
