The Week That Was!!! - MM Photography - Sugar Land Photographer

Sheesh! You've heard the song, "Mama said there'd be days like this"? Well, I wonder if she ever said there would be WEEKS like this! Last week was quite the week. Glad we have a fresh new start today. Last week was busy with both good, bad and kind of ridiculous as well! We started off celebrating my grandmother's 98th birthday. She is truly a remarkable lady and there were lots and lots of people, food and flowers to celebrate her day with her. Here's a few pictures of her with my kids and one of my neices. As you can see, she knows how to dress for the party!





Tuesday was TAX DAY my least favorite of days really. I did my quarterly business taxes and started on our personal taxes. Blech. Why do they have to make taking all our money so complicated??? Just say "Hand it over." and be done with it. Perhaps it's because after days of torture trying to figure it all out we are only too happy to write the check and be done. Hmmm... maybe.

Wednesday was a crazy day running here and there, phone ringing off the wall, etc. Pretty much a normal day UNTIL... as I was mopping the floor and running the dishwasher my son called for my attention around the corner. They were eating an after school snack at their table. Being SO good I THOUGHT. When I looked around the corner expecting to be shown a clean plate and a big smile. Instead I see two children that look a bit like refugees. My son had taken scissors and cut my daughters hair down to the scalp in places and gouged his own. Over the last few days I've heard friends and clients telling similar stories and they laugh as they tell them so I know we'll laugh mroe with time. Okay, I'm kind of laughing a little now... as long as it doesn't happen again. Hair DOES grow back after all. Here's a look a their new "dos". (Warning...not professional pictures. Just snaps!) Neither one wanted to give me a real smile. Guess they're kind of missing their hair?

Oh! And did I mention that on Thursday my kitchen water faucet decided to spring a MAJOR leak and went bizerk??? No? Well, it was a lot of fun and the clean up was wonderful. I could plan how to repair my children's hair while doing the task! The GOOD news is that my husband and I had an hour alone without children at Lowe's in the kitchen faucet department. (We take dates whenever and wherever we can.) We picked out a beautiful new Moen faucet that I dealy love! What a great faucet she is. She doesn't leak and she's all new and shiny so it all worked out in the end! Thank goodness I married a man that knows how to fix things without calling in those high dollar repair guys!

SO... onward and upward to a much more fabulous week! Will post several sets of TWINS I had the honor of photographing next.... stay tuned!!
