Life has taken a wonderful turn and the journey has been so much fun these past months!
Where to start: In September I (Wendi) worked my last day at CB Richard Ellis. Commercial real estate was never my passion but we have always been blessed that it helped pay the bills. Now I am concentrating on our photography business full time. Solari Photography is up and running and it has been a long time coming! We have a website: www.SolariPhotography.com and a blog: http://solariphotography.blogspot.com/ (you can also reach the blog through the website). Joe and I have always taken photos for family, friends, and fun but now we have made it our business too and I couldn't be happier about that. We shot a wedding together at the beginning of October and we found out that we make a great team (I guess we already knew that though)!!!
Also in September Joe started back on the Disney Channel series "Zeke & Luther" for season 2. So far, so good. See the photo of Joe filming on a scissor lift (he is on the left). He has a set schedule of Monday through Friday which is great for family life. The girls love having him there on the weekends.
Piper turned 4 years old on August 7 and is in Jr. Kindergarden. She is learning all the things that will prepare her for Kindergarden next year. They have a letter of the week and a color and shape of the month. She has homework 4 nights a week and I am still not sure if I agree with that. Getting her to bed by 7:30pm has become a thing of the past and Piper NEEDS her sleep! She has a wonderful memory and such a good sense of humor. She loves to play dress up and sing in the mirror! Piper still adores her baby sister and is a great helper.
Finley turned 16 months on October 2. She is a ball of independent, hot-headed, tough girl ENERGY! We have our hands full with this one. Her very favorite thing is to read. She cannot get enough of her books. She regularly raids Piper's bookshelf! Finley is a climber and LOVES bananas (so much so that we have had to put them out of sight) so she has earned the additional nickname of "Monkey" recently. We keep forgetting that she has an older sister to learn the ropes from so she is ahead of where Piper was at this age in so many ways! It is baffling to watch how fast she learns from Piper. Fin is learning to talk. She uses her sign language but also likes words that start with "s" or "sh"...like "shoes" with an over-emphasis on the "SHHHHHH"!!!
We have tons of amusement with the two girls!
We hope everyone has a great Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year!
Love to all,
Joe, Wendi, Piper, + Finley Solari
