End of 2020! I remember feeling emotionally drained as this month included a lot of transitions, long work hours and hard conversations. I’m thankful for pictures, because while I felt grief, I can see these images from my phone and be taken back to all of the memories that I want to hold on to. […]

This month was a busy one for Wayne with school and for me with work. Well, mainly just one week was jam-packed, while the others felt a lot like the rest. The days feel long because it feels like we are reliving the same day on repeat, for the most part. There was some celebration […]

The month of quarantine! Florida began a “Safer at Home” executive order on April 1st, where we were only supposed to leave our homes for essential tasks or business. Everyone has been affected by COVID-19, in some way. It’s important to acknowledge that experiences vary. Something that I learned pretty quickly is that this season […]

Phew! Remember back when I said that January was the longest month? I take everything I said about January back. I honestly feel as if March was a marathon of a month. A LOT HAPPENED and A LOT CHANGED. January, I’m sorry for all the things I said about you. I love you. I miss […]

February kicked off with a wedding near Jacksonville! Because it wasn’t that far away, I was able to have breakfast with Ethan before heading out which was really special because I don’t normally get any quality time with the kiddos on wedding days. A former architecture classmate and one of my very favorite brides was […]

Happy 2020! I started this year off with some of my favorite people and a lot of really good food. Actually, after going through all of the month’s pictures, I realized that MOST of my memories involved food. I’m here for it. We ended 2019 by playing games in our back-porch-turned-room and started 2020 in […]

December FLEW BY. I always feel like the holiday season is like that. There aren’t enough hours in the day (or month) to do all the things. I definitely didn’t watch enough Hallmark movies, but I did give more time to baking this year!  The month began with a date with my boy. We were […]

Big things happened this month. The celebrations continued through to the end of the month. Wayne and I returned to work at the beginning of the month with a double-header wedding weekend. Wayne, Kim and I traveled to South Florida for wedding number one and left right after the reception for Orlando. Before wedding number […]

October marks the time of year when our schedules begin to fill up with family celebrations! It’s the beginning of our family’s most active season with the richest of memories. This time of year, we celebrate birthdays, dating and wedding anniversaries, and of course all the holidays. October also marks the ending of another season […]

It has officially been one year since Carney Monthbooks! One year of being intentional about documenting our family memories and milestones. I am actually really proud of myself for being proactive in taking pictures, whether with my phone or camera. High five to me! I’m noticing that even the little moments are worthy of being […]
