Family Pictures

Here is the latest of our family pictures, maybe I should say Kid Pictures, prior to family pictures?  We scheduled our family session with Justine Miller Photography and this was the pre-session.  Zoe was dancing and obsessing about her “smooth/not puffy hair” and teaching Zane some choreographed moves.  They rolled in the grass, started sweating, [...]

San Tan Mountains

We recently took a group for an evening hike at San Tan Mountains.  It was an absolutely beautiful and perfect day.  I wished 2 things: that I rode my mountain bike more often AND that my family loved things like this as much as I did!  Well, moving to WA will give us tons of [...]

I will miss these someday

I joke about the people coming from the east coast, so amazed at the desert life.  I think it is hilarious that they seek cactus, kokopellis, turquoise jewelry and dream catchers.  BUT, when I reviewed the pictures from our desert hike I started to realize that I just might miss the fact that we have [...]

The case of the missing Zane

I couldn’t find that little rascal today.  We have had a house of chaos… painters, garage sales, and a messy house.  I was trying to get something done (and by the way, Zoe came home from school and said, “Mom, no my teacher knows you are always on the computer.”  I was curious as to [...]

Get your concert tickets!

Here is what we are all sending out…  If I wasn’t singing in it, I would be buying tickets!  It will really be awesome!  I have talked about this choir so much…  the two brothers that direct this organization are amazing and one of them has done all the musical arrangements.  You will be amazed! [...]

I’ve got this feeling

I just have to share it, write it, note it, keep it, remember it, love it, bottle it, and cherish it…  I just got back from night 2 of my choir practice.  It is the most amazing experience a mother of two, stay at home mom, not a master of fine arts, unaccomplished musician could [...]

Blogs vs. soap operas

I am beginning to think that blogs may have similarities to soap operas (or reality shows) Let’s see: both are addicting both are stories (truth or not) both are on-going both can be dramatic both have characters both bring you in daily for more I’m sure the list could go on.  Ya know, it’s funny [...]

My friend

Here is that birthday girl!  She was sweet to want pictures with us.  We were struggling with having enough light, thank goodness I didn’t give my camera to a complete stranger this time-my fellow friend and lover of photography, Candice Cook, took our picture.  ISO: 6400 (thanks to the 5D for that) 50mm/1.4 (I love [...]

My weekend

It happened again, Lettie had a birthday.  She loves to put on her very own small and quaint birthday party so she knows exactly what to expect and it is everything she could hope for.  Smart girl!  Anyhow, it was amazing of course, but it was also relaxing and wonderful.  It was a present for [...]
