Welcoming Fall

Fall Beauties

A little eye candy : )
(Didn't take the time to shrink images for the web, but the 'real deals' will be up on my site soon!)














What to do with an hour?

Lucky me! Bella and I have an hour alone every school morning. Yesterday we did our nails! Today was a different story. After I helped her put her scarf in her hair this morning, she was feelin' groovy. I said, "Awww, you look so pretty! Can I take a picture?" She replied, "How about a photo shoot?" Off we went! Such a fun way to start the day.







First day of... sniff, sniff... school!

WHO ARE THESE CHILDREN???????? WHO TOOK MY BABIES??????? Uh... check out the poses. WHO ARE THESE CHILDREN? LOL!
[ poor pics. should have used the flash. : ( ]







Congratulations Lolo and Lola!


This photo was taken on Sunday at the Mittenthal's new home. It is a beautiful place with wonderful windows, perfect materials and just the right amount of space. Congratulations!

KUNG FU BABY! Hiiiii YA!

This one cracked me up!!! He was really laying in a basket, but turning him/the pic upright was an opportunity I couldn't pass up. I'm so mean! Poor baby! lol!!!

Makes you smile. Right? : )

Happy Little Camera


My camera was a happy camper Saturday. Two boys in one day, and both so cute! : )

This 3 week old baby was so unhappy the majority of the time, I wasn't sure I'd get a single good shot. Hope to learn some photoshop tricks this week ( ; ) ) to help these along.






This 3 year old guy we all know and love was so talkative, I wasn't sure I'd get many good shots. LOL! Out of 600 photos, I think we've got some keepers!







Happy Birthday Lilly!!! Our TEENager!

Lilly chose to spend the night at Top Golf in Itasca. It was a great night for a birthday celebration outdoors!













The expression below came when... OOPS!... Lilly was trying to tell me to relax my swing a bit more. She, unfortunately, relaxed her grip a bit too much!!!


Yep! That is her golf club wayyyyyy out there! LLLLOOOOLLLL!!!!!







HOLY COW!

There is no other title I can think of appropriate for this blog entry (without expletives!) I am very slowly, and very painfully, trying to learn my wonderful new camera and "pro" version of photoshop. As I was trying to get some camera settings ready for Lilly's birthday dinner/outing tonight, the girls walked in the kitchen with my new winter gear on (great sale at Kohl's!). BAM! The right lighting and settings, plus the "pro" version of photoshop = I can't get over the difference! And, aren't these babies yummy?
