Here are some photographs of the damage of Hurricane Irene's wrath ....This Hurricane totalled 4 cars on my block (2 of them belonging to my mom and I)..and 4 of our neighbors basements were completely flooded as well ..atleast 4 feet deep..Yeah I really hope that I never see a Hurricane like this ever again.
But now I finally have a new camera...the Sony NEX 5 and I love it so far!! The quality of the photos are amazing! It's the best camera I've ever owned..and I love all of the features it has on it as well....but I've just been having one recurring issue with it ..the screen keeps freezing! >=( ...SO I had to go and exchange for another camera. I got the same one again so lets hope that my Sony NEX 5 (# 2) won't have the same issues as the first..otherwise I'll be heartbroken! Seriously, lol.

So of course now that I have a new camera and don't have to rely on my silly outdated borrowed point and shoot that my aunt lended me during my camera crisis...I will be sharing a lot more photos with you! And the quality will be a lot better as well.....I may even start shooting some vids too! Whatcha think about that?
...So of course I've been taking a shhhhh-load of pictures with my new camera...let's take a looksie!

It just dawned on me that this is my first post ever on this blog where I've actually shared my family with you lol..I hadn't even noticed that until now...some of you may not have even known that I'm a mom...but yes I am a very SUPER proud mommy of that beautiful little monster in the first picture above..that's my little 3 year old terror lol..Her name is Madison October..and everyone usually asks "was she born in October?" ..the answer is No. lol..that's kind of a silly thing to do..name a child after the month they were born in..just seems kind of thoughtless and non-creative to me..but to each it's own...But for Madison she was named after the month of October because it holds great sentimental value for both her father and I. We both have elders in our family who were either born or passed away in that month...not to mention my mother and Madison's father's birthday is the same day October 9th..crazy right?! lol..So hopefully as she gets older she'll love her middle name as much as I do..I know it's different..but I think it's beautiful :)...Another question I often get from the people who aren't too bashful to ask is if I'm still with her father? ..The answer is yes.. ..and he's my best friend and the love of my life. He's shown me what true love is and I'm truly blessed to have him in my life. ....and to have a guy that accepts and aids my shoe obsession! lol...but that's probably because he can relate to me..because even though he won't admit it ..he has a bit of a sneaker obsession. Maybe one day I'll do a shoe post for the gentleman featuring him and his crazy collection....Now I kind of feel like I'm interviewing myself..awkward moment, lol...But if you have any questions for me at all don't be afraid to ask =)
I might just start doing more outfit posts since I have my new camera to play around with! ...I've been asked how I style all of my crazy shoes anyways..so now you'll get to see.............
Well that's all for now lovers.............I'll be putting up another post tomorrow as promised!! So stay tuned!................. and thanks for reading this random post..I hope you enjoyed it!..
Good night..........(or Good Morning...depending where you are)...
I love the quality of the photos, Ashley! I can so tell a difference from that "outdated" cam you were using at your birthday!! haha But we use what we can and hey, it got you through it. But that first picture of Madi is like WOW! Professional photographer style!
ReplyDeleteI hope you do more outfit posts. I love seeing how you style your shoes, too! Even though I have JCs. It's nice to see fellow JC girls styling their fun and quirky shoes.
I didn't even realize you hadn't posted any pics of your fam on here. I know you've mentioned Madi before...at least I think so. LOL IT's so weird for me, because I know you have a family so I just don't even think about it I guess. And I love the story of her middle name. I remember asking you if she was born in October, too! hehe But the way y'all picked out her middle name is so meaningful and I already loved October as a name anyway. My friend Tiffany in Vegas had a cat named October and that was the first time I heard it used as a name. I loved it!! Even if it was a pet's name. :)
Oh and this is really random but did you ever see any bad hurricanes living in Florida?? Because I thought it was hurricane central down there. I would be so terrified to see anything like that. Good thing it didn't hit Paterson (at least on my block) that hard. We were away for the weekend and we didn't even have our dogs! Isaac was watching them every few hours. That would have been terrible! Anyway, now I'm rambling! Lol
I look forward to our girls movie date on Monday!! Weee!!!
cute family pics!
