Shirley was a model ---

Saturday –

So…. Before leaving for the photo shoot meeting – I decided to cook some Mac-n-Cheese --- and the noodles caught on fire and I almost burned the house down. Close call.

The meeting went really great. I meet 4 amazing women at Starbucks who are college students majoring in photography. They told me a little about themselves and I did the same and we looked at the pictures that they wanted to shoot and they are amazing – I just hope that I do ok. I also told them about my friend, Evan Cooper. (free plug – LOL)

During conversation my friend Mike came into Starbucks and it caught me off guard because I am not use to seeing people who look (like me) in the same place that I am. LOL

During conversation with my new friends we began talking about what I teach my “little ones” at the studio. I told them simple things like numbers, greetings and the weather. We then started talking about the weather and snow. Strange I know --- but it lead Connie to say if they ever want snow at Christmas time they have to “pray to God” --- so this struck up a conversation and opened the door for me to ask her if she believed --- she said YES, she was a Christian. We then began talking about church and what church she attends --- she told me that her and her grandmother go to church together!

She also told me that tomorrow when we finish the shoot she wants to go to a foreigner event that happens the be the “global event” I talked about in a previous blog that ICC – our church is participating in tomorrow. She said she wants us to go together. Really excited about today and the new friendships that were made.

We also talked about family and how I am the same age as her older sister – she said “I can call you sister!” I then showed them pictures of my family and they fell in love with Arden and Jake and said that Mom looked really young!! --- I told them she use to model back in the day!!!
