Couple of Knuckleheads

Yes, I’m still alive.  I’ve been REALLY lazy lately.  My bootie has been on the couch instead of in the computer chair.  It’s been nice.  REALLY nice.  So there.
Yes, I’m starting to feel guilty.
So, here I am.  Posting photos of my crazy sister and her best bud.  I love how they turned out – the...

November 8, 2009 - 10:02 pm Bonnie Bower - Shannon, you totally made me feel like a movie star or something. I'll probably never get to do anything like this again. At first I was self conscious, but you had me loose up in no time. You even made my wrinkles look good! I can't wait to see all the pics. Thanks for everything! Bonnie B.

Rainy Weekend Over…

It’s still raining here.  It’s  been raining for two days straight.  Enough already.
I needed someone to brighten my Monday and figured this family had been waiting long enough for their sneak peek.  I did give momma a tiny teaser last week, but now the rest of you get a turn.  Happy Monday!
How lucky is...

Goff Girls

Meet the Goff girls.
I’ve been trying to get a session scheduled with these three ladies for most of the summer.  Something has always gotten in our way, though.  BUT, this past weekend, we finally made it work!  I’m so glad, too, because they were a hoot!  Plus, I think they and their families will treasure...

Defending the silver lining…

I’ve started a bit of a routine.  I proof all night so I can play all day…with my boys.  I don’t get much sleep, but who needs sleep these days?  Right?  Okay, so I might be a little bit tired.  I can handle it…afterall, what do I have to complain about.  Life is good.

Beautiful Mom Winner…with a bonus!
