the Second Amendment.

well, if you got em'... Meet Luke. Lineman of the Year.

Luke, I was wondering....if my Mom wants to adopt your Aunt Lisa as her 4th daughter...does that make us related somehow? (:
It was so nice to meet you...I had a blast!

more to come...

p.s. your Mom is fabulous!

Meet Zoe.

This is my favorite picture of Zoe. From the Greek, Zoe means "life". A very big full word for a little girl....and yet, it's perfectly Zoe. Thanks Jess for having me take these. As usual, I had so much fun with you both...so glad you put up with my 'artsy-ness'! (:

see you soon!

Ok,... this October, I am spending 5 days with David Hobby in Paso Robles. Sort of. It's a lighting workshop, with thee Strobist...really!!!! You know strobist.blogspot.....The guy who makes his own snoots, Gobo's, and grid spots out of cardboard cereal boxes (for fun)? The guy who has a love affair with Gaffer's tape? And is completely nuts about all things off camera flash? The guy who has 350,000 followers world wide? Ahhhh...I am super excited...ok, mostly nervous...but also very, very excited!

And if that is not enough, David Hobby knows Joe McNally...I mean they were in Dubai together for crying out loud...

I die.

Meet Joseph & Brittany.

I started to type this blog and realized...I can't summarize this session. To many good things all rolled in to one. overwhelmingly good. I could gush and gush.

much more to come.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

I am beyond random. Decided to potty train Tye last night. Ahhhhh!!! a full day on the potty! It needs to be done, but Ahhhhh! I would rather help Mike Rowe inseminate turkeys for a week. no kidding.

Tonight had to "work" on something just for me...no holding back...any thing I wanted....any way I wanted to do it...
ahhh, now that's better.

I need to get some sleep, because "Everybody has go to STOP and GO POTTY."
it's true.

Happy Birthday!

Meet Tad Pole. This cracks me up...typically, Tad is just two big walking dimples. He is always smiling and is just "happy-to-be-a-part-of-it" whatever "it" is going on at the moment. However, occasionally he gives me this look and says, "Mom, don't laugh...I am serious." Oh boy, what did your brother do? (:

Tad pole, 4 years later and I still can't believe it! You are such a miracle...
love you 54-5, sure-do-love-you, my heart gives love to you, you're the best!, I love you more than the stars...and the moon...
