goal #3

My third goal for 2009 is to attend a photography workshop/conference. I've been dying to this for a few years now and I am determined to make this year the year. The trouble is finding the right one. There are tons of these things out there geared towards all different kinds of people. I'm looking for one that is the right fit for me. There are a few that I would LOVE to go to but they cost a pretty penny. So, I'm looking for the right one that looks amazing and fairly affordable and working on convincing my friend Jen to go to the same one. Anybody out there know of a great workshop? I'm up for suggestions. From what I have seen so far they book up really fast so I need to be on top of things.

Today: A little play, a little work and big plans for tonight. Every time we head west on the highway near our house Marlie goes crazy because there is a huge billboard advertising the live Sesame Street show playing here "Elmo's Green Thumb". Shane and I had talked about going and decided to save it for next year when Marlie is a little older since the tickets are pretty expensive. Then we found out on Friday that Shane won tickets at work! So exciting. I've been telling Marlie all day that we are going to see Elmo tonight and her eyes get so big. Oh man, she's gonna flip.

I hope Marlie had an amazing time! It reminds me of when we took Morgan to see the Wiggles. She literally lost control of her bowels when they came on stage. So we missed the first song or two because we had to head to the bathroom. :) We went with the Ewing's. I saw Mr. Benes this morning and told him that I loved their couch picture. :)

I was thinking of taking B--he gets a little weirded out by some things and is scared easily so I wonder if he would just be scared and not enjoy it, even though he loves Elmo. Let me know how Marlie does! I'll bet she will love it.
