Roosters-N-Rickrack Pinafore GIVEAWAY!!!!

I want to win this cute little dress, so I created a link to this fabulous blog again. 

Definitely. Maybe.

Two things. First off, I just finished watching the movie "Definitley, Maybe" again tonight, and I love it PERIOD. Go watch it. NOW. Or after you finish checking out this SESSION with Olivia. Ryan Reynolds you crack me up and Isla Fischer you are GORGEOUS with that red wavy hair of yours. Nighty Night.     

thank you. thank you.

A big THANK YOU to my awesome friend Ashley's (Martha Stewart) mom Vivian.  I bought a crib skirt for Ava's room before she was born and never ended up being able to use it, so these are the results that came about.  Vivian took it and made it into a valance for Ava and (me of course).  I love it!  Also I bought some stickers on sale at PB kids awhile back and finally put them to use above Ava's closet. 

 

 

Wedding Teaser

Click here for a glimpse at just a few of the many to come from Matt + Julia's wedding.  I was so nervous for my first wedding, but hopefully I captured plenty for the couple and their families to cherish.  I was a little snap happy. 

Mama's girl at heart.

What? Ava loves ice cream, nah! Are you kidding, I have to literally pry her fingers off of it and she just screams.  Now i get why "they" say, "I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!"  (Thanks Chelsea for letting me borrow your camera and sending me the pictures.  I always forget to bring it to chick fil a when we go.)

Check it out.

Hey c'mon people go ahead and check it out.  You know you want to! All you have to do is click this little button right here. 

Cream Cheese Delight.

I had to post this yummy dessert recipe.  I even gave it my own little name, cause it truly is delightful.  I found it off of a pie crust package.  Here it is. 

1 shortbread pie crust

4 oz. cream cheese softened 

1/4 c. sugar

1/2 c. sour cream 

1 1/2 c. cool whip 

With a hand mixer, blend cream cheese and sugar until fluffy 

Mix in sour cream. 

Fold in cool whip.  

I sliced fresh strawberries and placed them all over the top.  Refrigerate to set. Lastly, Enjoy!

I had a piece before dinner, after dinner, and one with lunch today.  I doubled my recipe :)

Peek a boo.

Just uploaded the pictures from Matt & Julia's engagement shoot.  Here's a couple to peek at until early next week sometime.  I'll let you know when I post more on to my photo blog.  

Peace out...

I'm hittin' the sack tonight.  I have a busy day tomorrow.  Have a happy weekend!

Why I ask?

It's 1 o'clock in the morning and I can't sleep.  I am so DANG tired it's not funny, and all day I have been so excited for bed time and here I am sitting at my computer wasting away precious sleep. 

Apparently Ava was feeling the same way for her nap time. "Please let me out mom?!!"   

  

Random, but this is a location I scoped out a while back and I think it shoud be perfect for the engagement pictures I will be doing this Saturday.  Hooray! Should be great.  Can't wait.  

Blah Blah..

For anyone who cares to peak.  I posted a few more photos of this shoot.  It will be my last one for it.  Critiquing good and bad is very welcomed.  I need input from different people.  Thanks.  

Another please. Dream on.

I found this off of Mormon in Manhattan blog.  Great blog by the way.  Totally worth reading. Keep dreaming even if your soaked in throw up & dishes, or up to your elbows in diapers.  God loves you! Your dreams are important to Him, because He loves you and He more than anyone wants to see you succeed.  Here is the quote she had in one of her posts I wanted to share. 

  

{Quote for the day}

I thought this quote was a good one to share today:  

"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.  For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.  For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day. For

poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms.  As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others." ~Audrey Hepburn

I wish...

I was a talented seamstress.  I've always wanted to sew, but never learned how.  My mom used to be really good when she could see, but now it's too hard for her. Check out these cute little dresses made by a stay at home mom of 2 little girls.  Click here.  So cute.
