Rocky & Bella birthday party
This past weekend I was invited to attend a birthday party for the grandchildren of a lady I work with at the daycare. Her name is Alma and she is a great friend and cook. I had never been to a Hispanic birthday and realized when I got there on time, it was normal for them to be late. friends and family dribbled in and out all night. It was great meeting new people and enjoying good food, but I was there strictly for support and to rock the camera. The little ninos would not slow down so it was a challenge to shoot them all night. after a few whacks on the giant pinatas and cake the party was over and the presents waited for another time to be opened; strange, the kids did not say anything about them. sweet time

flying through the summer
I realize I haven't written anything significant in awhile, just posting photography. sorry if that has upset some of you if there is anybody still checking this silly blog out. I have been working hard to complete my business website jaretkellybenson.com which is successfully up and running (check it out). life has been absolutely crazy the past couple months and I feel that I don't have the energy to give you a complete breakdown of it all. here's a quick review so far:
-struggling to stay up with my one online seminary course
-lifeguarding under the hot texas sun for the summer, love it
-trying to balance two additional jobs
-constant pain when sitting for the past couple weeks because of unexpected surgery, I'm ok though
-photography, photography, and more photography (shooting a couple weddings soon)
-devoting little time with Jesus which causes all others to suck and be meaningless
-not much time to hang out and fellowship with friends because of previous points listed
It's hard to believe that this summer is passing so quickly. I feel overwhelmed and the ability to slow down and grow is slipping away. I enjoy good challenges and try my best to endure while being patient. so far I seem to be walking the journey well, but honestly struggle more than I know. I come to realize the extreme importance of surrounding yourself with people who love you and can help you walk or run through life and its many valleys. we are not meant to strive on our own. failing so much is proof that humbles us when trying to run the race solo. for too long I have done this and can't seem to figure things out. perhaps I too need help.
may the Lord of all provide rest and grace for the weary and brokenhearted who continue to give it all they have and continue fighting with passion.
