The Paper Mama Photo Challenge: Faces
Just another day at the office…
So it’s no secret that I love my job. I work with great people and love what I do. I haven’t ever really gone into what I actually do, but here’s the gist: The president of the company I {actually} work for, is the president/CEO of maybe 5 companies total. That man is busy! Anyway, he hired me as a marketing manager to be part of his management team for his businesses. This means, while most of my time is spent for the hunting/outdoor company, there are times he needs my help with his other ventures. It keeps things interesting!
So, anyway, in July, he bought a snack food company. Since then, about half of my time at work has been spent helping coordinate the website redesign, store build out at the new mall location, signage, photoshoots etc. Speaking of photoshoots, my family was asked to model for the photoshoot. HA! Well, Andy was already back at work, so he couldn’t but Ry & I did and I wanted to share the photos.
Ry was a trooper and did a great job. And, a huge, huge thanks to my brother for coming along to help wrangle the kid while I had to do photos without her…you know, with my stand-in husband Steve. {kinda awkward}
Cosmo’s Corn is like caramel corn but a bazillion times better! {And I’m not just saying that because I sort of work for the company.} This stuff is addicting. It’s like crack. {I’m actually eating some right now} But it’s actually not that bad for you either. It’s trans-fat free and gluten-free and since it’s made from corn meal, there’s no kernels! As you can see, Rylee thoroughly enjoyed it too! That girl was so amped by the end of the photo shoot. Anyway, we launched the new website yesterday. It’s a work in progress, we just really needed to get it launched. Plus also? It’s a light-years ahead of what was up there. {See what I did there!? I slay me.}
So, to recap: I love my job. Cosmos Corn owns my face. This project may make me fat. My kid is a rock star. Our pictures are up in the mall. Boom.
And… if you ask real nice, I may be able to hook you up with some Cosmo’s Corn to try. :)
Go ahead…take it for a spin.
Welcome to my shiny new blog!! What do ya think so far??
Feel free to click around, check things out…kick the ole tires.
Here’s some things you will notice:
1. Our very own URL! We’ve dropped Little Miss Rylee and now we’re “Somewhere in the Middle”. Things have changed since that very first blog post and I’m happy with where we’ve ended up. Don’t worry, there will still be plenty of 3-year-old antics to share!
2. An obvious one is the look. Just keeping it fresh.
3. It’s a work in progress. There will be new (!) things (!) here and there as I get settled in.
Here’s some other things:
1. Andy went back to work on Monday. Summers are never long enough. We’re transitioning back into our school year routine.
2. We’re headed into product launch season at my work…always my favorite time of year, but also the craziest. So, just be prepared for that.
3. Rylee has decided as of the last week that instead of waking up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom that she’ll just sleep through all of that and wake us up once she’s already gone…in her bed. So…yea…
4. All those things combined? Yea, it means we’re all tired in our house.
So I guess that’s it for now…
We’ll return to our regularly scheduled blogging tomorrow!

Oregon Girls Rock. {period}
Because who doesn’t love not one, but THREE{!} giant, swollen mosquito bites on their face!?
I can make a fire with twigs and moss. Can you?
Up with the sun…and my ass hole dog.
Nothing beats a quiet morning, the crackling of a campfire, the rush of a stream and a hot cup of coffee.
Ry thinks napping while camping is for the birds…suckers.
{AKA} This must be why people don’t take their kids camping until they’re {much} older.
Nothing like rushing water to help you sleep…and make you have to pee.
OFF! Spray: An undiscovered aphrodisiac. {Actually, I lied. It’s not. At ALL.}
Are you going to bury my poop so Dante doesn’t eat it?
I’m practically a pro at peeing outside. No really, you’d be impressed.
Rylee? Doesn’t so much have the hang of peeing outside—good thing we packed extra pants.
This year we scaled back and left the triple burner camp stove with BBQ box & griddle attachments at home. {Never again.}
Is camping without s’mores really camping?
Clearly, camping is ROUGH for a husky-wolf dog.
Who knew brushing your teeth outside could be SO! MUCH! FUN!
Baby wipes: not a very good alternative to a shower—but better than nothing.
He was not give the nickname Ranger Rice for nothing.
I am better at rolling sleeping bags than my husband. And for this I thank my father.
Nothing measures the effectiveness of your communication as a couple better than putting up a tent together.
I must be immune to Poison Ivy because after further inspection I’m pretty sure I’d been peeing on it all weekend.
