I need to wash my hair, load the dishwasher, do laundry and mop the floor. I&#8217;d rather be editing, it&#8217;s way more fun than chores! ;) I&#8217;m getting through one of the busiest weeks I&#8217;ve ever had and oddly I feel calm. 5 Shoots, 2 Meetings, and a Wedding. I swear some weeks I drive myself crazy obsessing about getting everything done and sometimes I&#8217;m cool as a cucumber knowing in the back of my mind, I need to chill. Eating a snack on the front porch with the dogs has been fun when I need a break, the weather has been awesome lately. We live really close to a school, so usually when I go outside I can hear the kids outside laughing and playing from the next street over. They must be out at recess. Makes me smile every time.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been editing so much lately, Randy has now become obsessed with playing HALO. I can hear him as I type this. He&#8217;s screaming at the TV from the next room&#8230; &#8220;Hurry up, he&#8217;s coming! Watcch out dudee!&#8221; Seriously, the controller in his hand and headphones in his ears. He logs in and connects with his friends, so it&#8217;s like they all play online together or something. Whatever, at least he&#8217;s occupied while I get through the next few weeks, HAHA! I&#8217;m terrible.<\/p>\n<p>What are all you newlywed&#8217;s eating for dinner? I&#8217;m finding it hard to come up with stuff to eat. Randy&#8217;s is Mr. Meat &amp; Potatoes and I like everything, especially vegetables and salads. It&#8217;s kind of hard to find something we both like, unless we throw on steaks, make crock pot roast or spaghetti which is always easy for 2. I need to cook more. I did make some awesome turkey burgers the other night.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Turkey Burgers:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>1 Pack of 97% FF Ground Turkey<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>1\/4th of a Granny Smith Apple (minced)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>1\/4th of a Red Onion (Minced)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>4 Dashes of Wisticher Sauce<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Salt\/Pepper to Taste<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>* Combine ingredients in a bowl and form into Burgers.<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>* It makes 4 Burgers and I just grilled them in a pan with a little olive oil.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>* I topped them with slices of Avacado and made a mustard dipping sauce<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It was pretty tassssty I must say ;)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, my break is over&#8230; back to editing and typing up a wedding contract.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll leave you with some cuteness that I photographed yesterday&#8230;.
