My Little Garden


I've always wanted a garden. With a little help from my friend, Sebastian, it's finally come to life. This picture was taken right after I planted the garden so the plants are so much bigger now. It's amazing how life grows so fast.

I know we are going to love this little garden. It will be a lot of work, but it will be well worth it!!

Trying to figure out this mobile blogging thing. Don't think I'm having all that much luck?

That's pretty cool that I did that first part of the post from my phone...but I just tried to send one with a picture and it's not working for me, so I'm thinking "what the heck good is it to do it from your phone if you can only "text" it and not even include a picture. Must be like Twitter kinda...but who cares...this a blahhhhg for goodness sake!

Okay...a posting I will go.

Photography is My Passion...

I just can't get enough. Here are some of my new favorites:














Michele over at Pinkletoes told me when I took her class that I should take tons of pictures and also delete tons of pictures too. I am doing much better with deleting, but as you can see from the pics above...maybe just not enough. I could take and take and take and take pictures all day long.

I've got 3 shoots coming up and my niece's birthday party/petting zoo!!!! I can't wait!!

Easter '09 in Wimberley


We started a new tradition last year on Easter and that was to go out to Hutto and be with the Bradley's and the Hutton's. This year, we decided we'd ask Joan if we could borrow "Wimberley Wonderland" to celebrate this year and of course, she graciously allowed us to have our Easter Dinner and Egg Hunt out there. She's so wonderful to us!!!













Of course, there were a few missing pieces....Brandi and Hunter, Shelly, Rick and Charlie and Tony and Lori....maybe we can all be back together next year...I sure hope so.

The kids all had a blast, LOVED that the Easter Bunny left them all an egg with a dollar in it and even put their names on the egg so they could know which one was theirs!!! They kids even managed to squeeze some swimming in (with the help of the pool heater!)




Thanks to Mikie for cooking brisket and ribs (which were devoured by Mac and Sebastian before we ever got there!!! MAN the trailer is awesome!!!

Four Times Three at Kiddie Acres

Mandy has four kiddos. On every one of their 3rd birthdays they have celebrated with family and friends at Kiddie Acres. Kiddo number 4 was no different. Austin is a special bundle of joy wrapped up in disguise as a 3-year-old. He had SO much fun and we were once again thrilled to be there for the celebration. Thank you to Austin for inviting us to share his special birthday. Love you sweet kiddo!!

I HATE Pictures of Myself...



But Sullivan took this one of me and was SO proud. I read somewhere to let your children take pictures of you, even if you don't like it. It doesn't matter what you think you look like, they love you and think you are beautiful and will want the memories later in life. That being said...

LOOK AT THIS GREAT PICTURE of my little mommy!!

I just LOVE it!!

Practicing With Light



Mac let me practice with the sunburst over his shoulder. Too bad he's so silly.



And just a quick shot of the trees on the porch in Wimberley.

The World is a Better Place

Because of our pets...












For some reason Rusty and Gracie don't EVER let me take pictures. They are FREAKS...luckily I got ONE good one of Rusty and a good one of Joan's pup Macy...Animals are harder to photograph than people!!!
