Winter Blues and Reds










It's been a while since I've blogged, but not necessarily because I didn't have anything to blog about, I just didn't feel like it. I'm not sure who all still reads my blog, but by the lack of comments I would assume, not many. Anyhow, for those of you faithful viewers, I am about to have my photography website up and running, so I will be sure to let you know when that is available for viewing. I'm very excited about that!!!! Also, I am LOVING my new job as a nanny. The kids are great and we're teaching each other plenty! Its still cold and will be for a while....i'm trying to not think about it! Anyway, here are some pictures of some things I've done over the last month. I did a photo shoot before Christmas of two little girls here in town (for their mom). They were precious and here are some of the shots i got! Also, I had the distinct Honor and pleasure of photographing one of my dear friends from High school before she gave birth to their first baby, so I've included a few that were my favorite. And the cake I did for a couple who is adopting a little baby girl from China; the cake says "Eleanor" the baby's names! Love you all!
cheers!

Happy New Year!! (Belated)


















Okay, so I'm a little behind on the New Year thing, but things are a little crazy around here. It's hard to believe that A MONTH ago yesterday we started our cross-country journey towards the promise land...that's TEXAS for you ordinary folk! We had soooooo much fun just seeing and hanging out with both of our families and friends. On the way down we stopped to spend the night in Tennessee with our good friends Dave and Kristin, It was hard to believe we hadn't seen them since we moved (about a year and half) we just picked right up where we left off. It's so great to have friends like them!
Then we drove to Dallas to spend the night with Aaron and Allison ( each leg of the trips was about 9-10 hours). Friday we drove to Kyle that was little out of the way but totally worth it, because I got to see (and take Preg. pics of) my good friend Candace. It was awesome to be able to SEE her first of all, and to be able to share in this special time in their lives. That same day we drove to Houston to drop the dogs off and see James' parents. We then headed even further south. For Christmas this year my parents took us on a CRUISE. That's right! It was amazing and we got to spend an entire week with my WHOLE family!! and My cousins, my aunt and uncle...and Allison's family! Those who missed...missed out! Just to be able to spend that time with them was awesome! And as my dad said, Noah finally got to really KNOW all of us. It was also soooo amazing to see my mom virtually pain free for the first time in years!! We also got to spend some time with my In-laws (thanks again for watching the puppies)! On our way to the north we stopped and had lunch with my Mum and Poppie, and then headed to Muskogee to Celebrate my Grandad's 80th birthday!!

We are so blessed with the family and friends that we have!!! sorry for the rambling...here are some pictures from the whole trip!
love you guys!
cheers!
