Happy Thanksgiving 2011

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! I have so much to be thankful for this year.
I'm so thankful for my family. I'm so very lucky to be able to have two wonderful kids. Many of you don't know but I was very blessed to have the two. Dan and I always wanted a big family (5 kids). I know that many out there can't have any and I am very blessed to have Katelyn and Chase. A boy and a girl.
I'm so thankful for Dan's job and what it provides for our family and extended family.
I'm thankful for living in such a picturesque place. I love where I live.
I'm so thankful for our Christmas Gift from my mom! She took us to the most magical place on earth. DISNEYLAND. I was able to see Disneyland at Christmas time. It was MAGICAL. Check that off my bucket list.
I hope you all enjoy this holiday season and eat lots of turkey and goodies. YUM!!!

Happy Thanksgiving

Number 15

Katelyn turned fifteen on November 3, 2011 and she forbid me to throw her a party. I felt like my right arm was cut off. So I told her "I was the mother and I was still making her a cake"! She said she was fine with that and she invited some friends over for a "GET TOGETHER." I love throwing parties, I love planning for them and finding decorations, making and sending invitations and I felt jipped!!!! Oh well I still managed to have a Little Fun. Happy Birthday Bugs. Everyone watch the road because she will be getting her drivers permit.

This picture totally cracks me up... If you can't find Katelyn she is the bobble head on the bottom. Girls...

I have to say I got the idea for this cake from Julie Parker. It's a carnival cake with old postcards made out of icing. Okay I didn't make it either. Fresh Market made it. Yes! Fresh Market and it was only $67.00! Bargain, for a cake that size! It was yummy too except for the postcards tasted like cardboard icing.

The Crow

I hope you like these pictures as much as I do. It was so fun to shoot. I love the play sessions it gives me an opportunity to get my creative brain thinking. Now if I can just figure out how to get organized and on top of things so I could have posted these before HALLOWEEN...

I love these pictures of Chase. These are the pictures I'm going to cherish when he grows big and flies the coop. We carved this pumpkin together. We always design it on a piece of paper then he scoops out the insides of the pumpkin and I cut it. Teamwork...

The Crow

This photo shoot was like an AHA moment. The stars alined and everything worked out just the way I'd hoped, actually better then I'd dreamed. It only took us 20 minutes of shooting and we were done with some really cool pictures. This was one of my favorite photo shoots EVER! I drove Katelyn out to this corn field and while we were shooting the farmer started to burn the field. AWESOME! It gave it that cool, moody look I could have only dreamed of. Hope you like them. Thanks Katelyn for always being such a good sport.

Watch for the rest. They are coming next...
