merry christmas from my little sweet-toothed elf! ...
The other day I asked Tommy why he didn't ever post on our blog.He said, "I write in my personal journal. I don't like to cast my pearls before swine."I've been laughing ever since. ...
We've been carrying on the Dec. 6th tradition in our family. But this year I didn't know what to do, since "Mrs. Clause" didn't get a chance to run out to the store last night. But this morning as we all went downstairs, sleepy and groggy, there on the steps were our shoes filled with goodies! St. Nicholas came through for us after...
Tonight we got to see the Festival of Trees. It was very special this year because our sweet little niece had a tree dedicated to her. The kind and thoughtful people at Matt's work put it together, and it received a very generous donation, and all of the proceeds of the whole show went to Primary Children's Hospital. Tessa's tree was by far...
So the family can see, here are more photos from the shoot I did of Tony's family. ...
Our little nieces, Olivia & Izzy, say the silliest things. This post will brighten your day. Our little nieces, Olivia & Izzy, say the silliest things. This post will brighten your day. ...
I got a few more lovely photos from the talented Heidi, from Heidi J Photography, who shot alongside Scott Jarvie. I love seeing everyone's different styles. Look at these awesome sun bursts! Thanks so much, Heidi! ...
We were so lucky to get some photos done by the wonderful Scott Jarvie a few weeks ago! It was our first family professional photo shoot, and it was a lot better than me trying to do it all with a tripod! ...

Sydney loved it, and kept it on all night. It made her really wobbly, but that didn't stop her from running from...
We got our first pumpkin tonight. The experience lasted a whole 3 minutes once we realized we were a bit underdressed for the weather. Families were buzzing around us in excitement, all dressed in snow suits. I quickly plopped Sydney next to the pumpkins for a photo, and my poor little daughter stared at me with chattering teeth, as if thinking, "Mom, what...
Last night I did a little shoot for my brother Tony and his family in a mini orchard next to their house. I've been kind of obsessed with orchards as of late, especially with the colors changing. I just wanted to post a photo really quick before I'm out of commission for a couple days....I'm getting my wisdom teeth out this afternoon! I...
Today I got to play with my two adorable nephews. Little Charlie is over three weeks old already and merging from the "premie" to "newborn" stage. These photos were of him @ 1 week, and we'll do some more shots soon. He's still so tiny and sleepy, and so patient with his doting big brother and loving cousin, Sydney. I think Sydney was...
