It has literally been years since I have made a post to this blog. I considered shutting it down, but then I remembered that I have a couple of people in my life who still use a few of the recipes that I have posted and ask for the link every once in a while, so I figured I would just make an update instead.
With that said, here's a little post to catch up on what has happened in the last FIVE years since I last posted!
Our little baby boy isn't quite a baby anymore. Oliver just turned 7 last month! He is currently in first grade and has roughly nine weeks left in the year. I cannot believe that time has gone by so fast! He is so smart and hilarious, always making us laugh. He is curious about everything and loves to tell us facts about lots of different things in life. He loves Fortnite and plays all the time with my nephew, Zander. I play with them a lot of the time too. He loves to travel with us to work, especially if our friend George (one of the best ring announcers) is going to be there and most especially if there is a belt because he knows that George will call him into the cage to present it! He has met a lot of cool people including Butterbean and his son. Also, the former wife of the one and ONLY Muhammad Ali, Khalilah Camacho Ali (aka Mama Ali). She was so sweet and loving to Oliver and gave him her autographed photo of her and Muhammad.
Speaking of work... we have come a long way with the company since we started in 2020. We have traveled to so many different places all over the country, adding at least 15 states to my bucketlist and meeting some really cool people along the way. We are very fortunate to have such an amazing opportunity! We are also always on the lookout for new promotions, people to add to the team (producers and camera operators!). Combat Sports Now is headed in an exciting direction and I couldn't be prouder to be part of it!
I have also started doing a lot more with my own personal business, I have started doing a lot more graphic design stuff and posting to my Etsy shop - I haven't done much photography lately but I am starting to work on rebranding it. We are hoping to add some video into the mix, perhaps commercial work and event video. Check back for updates!
Last September, on what would have been my Mamaw Sis and Papaw Lawrence's 69th Anniversary, Davey and I were married! Our friend Rachel was ordained and married us in a beautiful backyard ceremony. The day couldn't have been more perfect and my guys looked so handsome! I know my grandparents were watching over!



Lots of other things have happened since my last post and so many things that I can't really include in this one or it would be a novel! I will say that we've had lots of fun, laughs, good times, tears over losing loved ones and furbabies, moving to a new house, health scares and faced many challenges but it has definitely made us stronger as a family. I love and am so grateful for this little life!
