Orange County Children’s Photographer: Spunky
I could shoot this little ball of spunk all day. She is SO cute and just makes me laugh all the time. I’m so glad that her big brother is on the same baseball team as Andy which means I get to see her several times a week!!

have a great day!

Hostess with the Mostess: Political Parties
No, not the kind of political party you’re thinking. We’re talking a good old fashioned red, white and blue bash. Last week I hosted a meet the candidate night. There’s a local guy here running for senate and I wanted a chance to listen to him speak and see who he was and what he...

everyday life: how does this happen???

everyday life: sundae news
Last week John had a few minutes off one afternoon and so we decided to run the kids over to the most happening place in town. A few months back they opened a new/old restaurant in a local mall and we have been dying to take them. I have many fond memories of Farrell’s Ice...
everyday life: wild weather
it has been a wild couple of days around here. whipping wind, hail, cold temperatures (well, ok, cold for us), rain, thunder, lightning, and then this yesterday…
WHAT??? I was watching fox news (i’m a total news junkie) when the national weather service interrupted the broadcast and gave us a tornado warning! They kept saying get...
Orange County Children’s Photography: The Blue Tutu
About 6 months ago or so I got the idea to make tutus. You know, another thing to add to my list. I had picked up these fantastic parasols in Chinatown when John and I went in May, and I had yet to put them to much good use. I thought it would...
