Photo Contest

So a couple of weeks ago I was browsing on a photography website and they were asking for photographers, amateur to professional, to submit their photos to be in the running for publication in this years "Best of 2009 Photography Anthology". I really had no clue what it entalled, but I went ahead and submitted one of the cutest photos that I have taken of MiaLuz. What do I have to lose right? Well, this morning I received an emailed informing me that my photo was selected for publication in their highly acclaimed Anthology. I was super surprised. I honestly don't know much about this photography organization, but one of the perks to being selected is that I will get continuous feedback from their professional photographers on any photos I will take in the future. So here's the featured picture!

lil' bit about the Flores Family!

We were each other's first love back in 8th grade. Besides the fact that we were teenagers, we always knew we would marry each other....And so we did. We married in the Houston, Texas temple in 2001. Lil' Christopher joined our family in June 2005, MiaLuz in October 2007, and Baby Adan in 2010. We are so blessed in many ways. Although we miss our family in Texas, we love our friends and family here in Columbia. Chris is currently 2nd Counselor in the Windsor Lake Ward and I am the Choir Director. We love our callings and love being in the ward. But can't wait til the day we can go back to our home, TEXAS! Until then, we will continue to go wherever the ARMY sends us. Chris is currently a Captain in the US ARMY and is so proud to serve this country,and I am proud of him for having that love, determination, and dedication. ARMY STRONG! Our kids are our world. Everyday brings a new challenge along with a new blessing. They are truly our greatest accomplishment and joy in life. We look forward to seeing their wonderful spirits grow in the gospel.
