FaMiLy PiCtUrEs...

We had our family pictures done with the Turner side of the family on Mothers Day. Although we were only able to stay for a short time, it was a lot of fun and Carina did a great job! Check out her work at http://www.carinadewitt.com/. Now... leave it to me to want to edit already great work. LOL! I just like to play around with my photoshop so here are my versions of some of her (already great!) photos that Carina did...

ps... I don't think I am violating any rules by doing this because she is giving us a cd of all the photos anyway to do as we want :o)

Don't you just wanna eat up their cuteness...

The above picture was taken at home. Of course, she poses like crazy... but once we get in front of the real camera at the studio, she won't even crack a smile. You'll see below how she perfected the 'victorian' style frown. You would think that someone just told her that Santa isn't real.

And here's the whole class. If you do click on the picture, it looks weird only cause I had to tastefully blurr out the little girls faces. I'm sure not every mom wants their kid on the internet. ;o)

baby news...

no... not me... my cousin Lisa! Lisa allowed me to be in the room for the birth of her first baby girl. And I cannot tell you enough how much I loved every minute of it! This was Lisa's first baby and she did amazing! Jakoby Kae was born at 12:39pm on Thursday, April 23rd, weighing in at a whopping 8lbs 6oz. Of course I hauled along my camera and took about 13 cazillion pictures and I've finally gotten the chance to 'doll a few up'. Thank you, Lisa, for letting me in on your little miracle. It truely was an amazing experience!

I cant wait to show you!

I can't wait to show my latest project! This is one I'm very proud of! Only, I can't show you til I'm all done... and I'm not. Just imagine... 2 bird feeders, a beautiful tv stand & a mirror... all from one old dresser that I didn't use anymore! EeeEek!!!
