I have been trying to post these photos for 5 days and couldn’t get them on my page but finally….here they are. This is the beautiful baby boy of my good friends Brodie and Lindsey. Deacon was such a good little model. My favorite is the last one with the tie. Isn’t he adorable?
I have spent MANY hours over the past few days re-doing my photography website. You can see it here. I felt that I needed a more professional looking site if anyone is EVER going to hire me to take their pictures. I am happy with it. It is my first attempt at actually making a website. I think it turned out pretty good.
I having been reading lots of info on how to take better pictures and how to edit them. I am dying to take Mia outside and practice, but it is cold and rainy. YUCK. What happened to the beautiful weather we had last week?
I am looking forward to Spring….and SUMMER!!! Can’t wait to take Mia to the pool. She will be so much more fun this year.
If you are in the mood to read something sad…go here. It’s a tear-jerker.
This was Mia on Valentine’s day. I just love that hat. Her dad got it for her a few months ago. She wanted to go play in the backyard. Her swing is broken and she was really upset so we had to go to the park and swing. She is so cute. She says WHEEEE, WHEEE, WHEEE everytime she swings back and forth.
Here is Mia and her Valentine’s balloon. She has been wanting a balloon for at least 2 months. She always points at them at Wal-mart and “asks” for one. She has drug this thing all over the house. I am afraid of the meltdown when the helium is all gone. I still love that she loves balloons.
Poor Mia. Her swing (the rope) in the backyard is broken and she wanted to swing SO BAD so I got her baby swing back out of storage and she fell asleep in it yesterday. She has been playing with it a lot. We may have to keep it out for awhile.
I am sure you are all just dying to know so here goes:
Most of all hoping you all have a great weekend!
For those of you who don’t know….Elsie is quickly becoming one of the most popular “Celebrity Scrapbookers” these days. She has recently become published a lot in Creating Keepsakes magazine and she is on the design team for Two Peas in a Bucket. She has such a fun style and I just love it. She uses lots of cool flowers and swirls (which I have loved forever) Inspired by her style I had made some foam flower stamps (I used them on my Valentine LO posted a few days ago) and I wrote her to tell her thanks for the inspiration. SHE WROTE BACK and suggested I send it to Creating Keepsakes. Here is the e-mail she sent. I’m so excited!!!! And yes I really AM a scrapbook NERD! This is my version of a Star Trek convention. Ha ha ha!
Here is the text:

Mia’s new favorite thing is the backyard. She was yelling at the dog in this picture. She also stepped in abig pile of dog poop! Gross! Well, there’s a first for everything.
Mia was so tired she crawled up on the couch and just layed down and went to sleep. That is my feet she is laying on top of. I didn’t want to move and wake her. Saylor took these pictures of her and then he put her to bed while I tried to wake my feet back up.
Also on Friday night I went to a crop at my church and came home with this project finished. It is a Valentine’s gift for Saylor. I had to take about 60 pictures to get these of Mia and I. I am happy with them. I just wish she would have smiled more. I hope he likes his gift. It’s in a frame to hang on the wall. I really like how it turned out. I really had fun with all the Valentine’s stuff. It’s always been one of my favorite days.
