Signs of Change

It's so much fun setting up all the decoration with the spirit and excitement the upcoming holiday Season brings, I love this time of year starting in the fall with the temperature finally cooling down from those hot Texas summers, the changing of the leaves, and the approach of the blessed Holiday Season and the start of the New Year. .

Well what goes up must come down, this past weekend my family did the yearly ritual of taking down the Christmas Tree, the wreaths hanging on all the doors, the garland on the staircase, the Manger set, and rereading all the wonderful Christmas cards and pulling a side the picture Christmas Cards which I keep every year. But more significantly to me the taking down of the Christmas decorations always get me to start reflecting on the start of the New Year, NFL Playoffs/Superbowl and upcoming Photography Conventions and Trade Shows.

Another favorite time of the year for me... if you follow my blog you know how much I love football and baseball... I love the playoffs, and I look forward to all the big Photography Conventions. They all happen within the first few months of the year. I love seeing what is current, the new options to offer my clients, and participating in all of the excitement.

As photographers I think it is extremely important to stay current and to see all of our options available at the trade shows. This weekend I leave for San Antonio for PPA's biggest convention. (Professional Photographers of America which I have been a member of since 1989!) It's non stop networking, trade show and classes.

I can't wait to see what I come home with. Stay tuned. lol
