Because it’s pretty

I was feeling anxious and yucky and alone the other day, and had the sudden thought to grab my camera and do something to inspire me… Something to make me feel less icky.
I found it.  And it was right in my front yard.

Because of this random bout of happy (yet not-so-happy since we actually need the rain) sunshine,  our rosebush bloomed several buds.  The cold night weather had frozen and burned the outside petals on several of the flowers, but this one was left unscathed:

I don’t normally like roses, but this one was sweet and lovely.
I processed with some textures, but the bokeh is natural.

With the onset of rain finally, this will be a happy little reminder of the sunny stretch we had this month.

 

Love, love, love

Amanda and Reed’s Wedding Album

Magic Dirt {I Haz It}

These are my kids.

I love them.

I take a LOT of pictures of them.

I hardly ever post those pictures of them.

 

But I’ll post this one.

This is NOT an overlay, my house is actually THAT dusty.  I think I need an air purifier or something.

Or maybe not.  The dust is magical in the right light.

So are toddlers who get along and snuggle.

 

Also, here’s our new addition… the Babydog.

She’s smaller than my foot.

Baby Georgie – Newborn Studio Portraits

Ok, so we had a good run with the only grandbabies in the family, and it was fun for a while, but I’m SO excited the boys have a new cousin to play with and what’s more, it’s a girl!

YAYY!  This is the first little girl out of 4 young guys in the family, so this little chickie is going to be S P O I L E D.

Congratulations to my sister Katie and Brother Juan on their new little munckin.  She’s so sweet.  I’m excited to see what the future holds for her.

 

Love love love,

Sweet Summery Senior Portraits

In the gentle downtime before spring craziness happens, I’m finally getting around to catching up on blogging.  I know, I know, I’m TERRIBLE at blogging, and a lot of you are probably thinking “why hasn’t she posted ours?”  It’s not you, it’s me… I promise.  Anyway, here are a couple sweet shots from Kasi’s first round of portraits this summer.

I LOVE THIS GIRL!!!

Her heart is so sweet and she takes direction perfectly.  Also, I’m excited that she’s going to be my new cousin this upcoming summer.  YAY!
