Happy Day Before Christmas Eve Eve! Hope everyone is having a lovely time with your families. Jimmy and I are currently in California (we surprised his family, other than his mom who flew down us to surprise everyone else) and are having the time of our lives. For that, I’m making this post short and sweet and posting an outfit that I took a few days before we left. These were taken in our front yard just outside the door. Obviously we are very on top of shoveling our driveways and walkways…hah.

beanie: gap
sweater: thrifted
jeans: thrifted
legwarmers: target
boots: reflection

Merry Christmas!

It is absolutely BEAUTIFUL outside. But it’s also freezing. In the negatives, to be exact. I don’t know how we do it to be honest..how we live here. Haha. It’s sort of funny how when it reaches up to 20 degrees we get excited about it. But I will gladly take that over -7! Anyway, enough about the weather. The snow is so high (past my knees) that I haven’t been motivated to take any outfit photos lately, so here I will leave you with the last one I took before the snow came. It’s also been hard to wear anything other than jeggings/leggings or jeans, but I’m comitted to not letting the weather bring me to the point where I don’t feel like getting dressed up! So here’s to toughing it out and braving the snow. I’ve been doing it every weekend for photographing my clients…why should this be any harder?

In other unrelated news, today it has officially been a year since Jimmy joined the Air Force. I can’t believe how fast time has flown by! One year ago today I was saying goodbye to him and seeing him off to BMT. Crazy. But good crazy. There have been some frustrating times for sure, but I wouldn’t trade our life for anything and I’m thankful to the Air Force for putting a roof over our head, medical insurance, and so much more! And I’m also thankful for my husband, of course. Words can’t express how proud I am of my handsome man and how grateful I am for his service! He is an amazing Airman and I can tell he is going to do great things and go very far in his career

You know, now that I’ve gotten busier with Jen Hammer Photography (and don’t get me wrong, I am loving it!) I haven’t made the time to take many outfit photos, or photos of my family, so as busy as I get, I’m trying my hardest to keep up and still take the time to keep documenting my life in photos, for me. I really miss taking outfit photos and right before we welcomed snow, I took a couple. Here is the first. The rest of our household goods came and with them came my chucks. And oh, how I have missed my chucks. For a small period of time I’ve been going through this phase of wearing Jimmy’s plaid tee’s. This one I picked out for him at the thrift store on base. I’m pretty sure I wear it more than him, though. And I can’t help but be on a flare kick…still. The jeans were also picked up at the thrift shop and are AE brand! Love them. I know this outfit is similar to the last, but I couldn’t help myself. I am sort of really into plaid at the moment. Anyway, it’s good to be back!
