Playing catch up

***Long Post warning**

Ok, so I am going to bring you up to speed with what I have been doing in the last month. I have celebrated birthdays, had a Happy Thanksgiving, enjoyed a Merry Christmas shot a couple of newborns and am getting ready to ring in a New Year. Man! Does time fly when you are having fun....

We partied harrrrrd for my little man's 3rd birthday. He is so into pirates right now that you would think his dad was a sea captain!


My first (and possibly the last depending on how long this pirate fascination lasts) attempt at a pirate ship cake. Let's just say it tasted better than it sailed! There were about a million skewers and toothpicks holding this joker together.

Thanks to cousin Harley for letting us party at her place. Good food, good fun, arrrgh the makings for a wonderful pirate party!




On the artwork side of things, I got the chance to set up a booth at a local community market to sell some photography for Christmas. This was my first booth anywhere ever, and I was so excited yet nervous at the same time.

Good thing I had some company to keep me grounded.







My art booth ended up being a major success! I sold about 75% of my work! I was so shocked, but proud that people were buying my work. It made me smile inside. I just want to thank all the unknown folks that bought my work, and unbeknownst to them, put my heart just above cloud nine. ThankyouThankyouThankyou!!!



I also had the pleasure of shooting a lovely newborn this month. Meet baby C*. She was a sleepy little thing, bless her heart. I loved that I was able to move her and she barely even flinched.

**(side note: I apologize now for the large copyright on the photos, I am working on something more pleasing to the eye. :))







So precious....
Thank you baby C* and family, it was great getting to know you for a few hours, and it would be my blessing if we got to do it again. much love♥♥♥


Well folks, that's it for now, and in conclusion I must say that I am truly blessed. This year has been a real roller coaster for my entire family and praise Him we are still standing. I just want to thank all my faithful followers, those that believe in me time and time again (even when I don't believe in myself), and to all the peeps that love me for just being me...I could not do it without you. May this upcoming year be all that you could ever ask or hope for.

Love+ Peace
