I haven't posted on this blog forever! I got to photograph my friend's new baby. I love new babies, and I LOVE this little girl. I am going to start posting more pictures. I want to photograph more, edit more, and learn more about this art that I so love.

sweet success

I saw them, I loved them. They didn't have my size, they didn't have seal brown. They had seal brown, they didn't have my size. They had my size!!!! in black. I obsessed, I obsessed, I obsessed. I am so gooooood at obsessing! ......It only took two hours of my life, but eventually I conquered! They will arrive in 3-5 working days. A 6.5 in seal brown.

Tons of money raised!!!

So, on Friday, over &10,000 got raised. That's awesome huh?

What to Buy for Christmas?

I love people that think outside of themselves. I LOVE this blog. I don't know these people, but I want to be more like them. Anyhow, I came across this today on her blog, and I was really impressed with what I read about this awesome charity.

Every year 4500 women will bury their children because of unclean drinking water.

Lack of clean water is the leading cause of death in undeveloped countries.

It doesn't need to be that way. With a tax deductible donation (100% of which will go to providing clean drinking water to villages in developing countries) many more people will be able to kiss on their babies for many more years to come.

Join us in giving life to those who need it so badly.

new girly pictures

My niece showed this awesome place by her house. I fell in love with it and took the girls over for a little photo shoot, in freezing weather and on/off rain. Awesome. They totally loved it. They only look a little bit frozen. These were some of my favorites.


Thanks Angie and Lynette for helping me do these. You're fabulous!

Caramel Apples

My sister showed me how to make these and I must say it is my new favorite thing.

While the Boy is away

My boy had to go out of town for a couple of days and we decided to make some stuff!! It's always easier to totally trash the house with our artistic senses when we don't have a boy around wanting to do "boy" stuff. So, the girls made fabulous collages. Really really really cool ones. I realize now that I didn't get proper photos of their finished work. I'll get right on that.



I finished my family rules canvas, that I love all too much. Click here for the instructions that I used. The changes I made were minimal. Obviously, I didn't write my instructions by hand, I cut them out with the Cricut, and my canvas is 24 x 36. These are the rules I used:
-be kind
-tell the truth
-serve others
-encourage your sisters, share in their joy
-choose to be happy
-be creative all the time
-be grateful
-mind your manners, yes please, no thank you
-pray often
-be thankful for your family
-Never, ever settle for less than your best.
We had an oh-so-fun night, and this is my new favorite thing!
