Where o where have we been!!!

So the last month has been very busy and hectic.

About the end of September Matt and I decided that we hated our apartment. We hated that our kids had to play on the balcony. Due to this we decided to look for a House. We knew it was going to be hard because we had just both just started jobs. Yet somehow we were approved for a mortgage. We knew that we wanted a 4 bedroom and a backyard. We spent all day in early October looking for a house.Needless to say the house that we liked was the last one we looked at and at the top of our budget. We put a offer in. After a week of debating with the builder we had a contract. WOO-HOO. Now we were just waiting on the VA to approve the home. Thankfully it only took us about 2 weeks to get our mortgage approved. We have been in the home a week and we adore it. We have boxes everywhere but our kids can go outside to play in a huge backyard and we don't have to walk up 3 flights of stirs.

Free 8X 10 from my best friend

You like FREEBIES?
I've got a freebie for you. Because I am starting a business. And I want publicity.

Yes, even in today's rough financial times and when everything is uncertain, I am following a passion and trying to use it to make a living. It is called LilyRose Photography. I will be doing event photography and on-site portraits, and locals in the Knoxville TN area can check me out here to find out photo package prices and things like that.

Non-local? That's okay, there's something for you too. You can click the above link, and check out the "Fine Art/Gifts" link, then go to the store and choose your print size. There is only shipping available at this time in the US, but anyone outside the US who is interested is welcome to contact me and we'll see what we can do. Another site is here, but it is not as in-depth and most likely will not be kept updated as well as the first one.

So check me out, and let me know what you think on your own blog. To qualify to win, you MUST link to both my sites in your blog post or article, you MUST link to this post, encouraging your readers to participate, and you MUST link to your post in the comments below so that I can find it. On November 14th, at 9:00 pm Eastern Standard Time I will number the comments left on this post, and a random number generator will choose the winner. What's the prize, you ask? An 8x10 print of your choice, from here. Good luck!
