School Uniform

I can't get this girl in a dress to save my life.

In preschool she would wear nightgowns to school because they looked like princess dresses.

Now it's always stripes, jeans and Converse.

With holes in at least one of those items...

...and freckles, lots of cute freckles.

At least some things never change.

The Girl's Got Mad Style

I have always said that my oldest girl has great style, since she was just a little one rockin' her princess nightgown and tiara with her black high tops and hoodies (much to her Grandma's chagrin--sorry mom).

I gathered up some of her favorite things to wear and a bit of heart inspiration from a photo contest and we put a little something together.

Check. Her. Out.

With. Love.

I know I am biased, but she is just too much for me.  xoxoxoxoxox

Tomorrow I will post some photos of someone else's kids...;)

This girl is too much.

Really.

Ok, that last one is my favorite.  Ever.  I know I say that all the time.

These are outtakes from our Holiday session---which went swiftly and disastrously awry.

Those pics are coming soon.  I know I know---I say that all the time too.  Well, just watch.

You'll see.

Pulling It Together

Happy New Year.  I am excited for 2013.  Of course I am always excited for the new year.  I love the idea of a clean slate.  A fresh start.  Starting anew.  I have been thinking of what the new year holds for me and my family and the phrase that keeps coming to mind is..."the year of living differently"...I live well now and we have a good, happy life, but there are most definitely some changes I want to make.  Little changes that will produce big results.

Here are just a few changes that I am looking forward to: Organize my home and create a peaceful and inspirational space for me and my family, get a better sense of what I want this blog to be, become a better photographer, create photos and paintings that are a sincere expression of my vision, spend meaningful time with my kids.

So, here we go, straighten our ties, put on some sparkle and be ready for what 2013 has in store and what we can create for ourselves.  What's on your slate?  I want to know.

xoxo

PS The photo is from the Holiday pics I did of the girls.  I will most definitely post the session soon.
