Lifes little moments

I pledge to...

This morning while I was reading the news on MSN I  ran across this video on MSN this morning about Actors and Actress pledging to make America a better place to live....for me I pledge to smile more and get to know my neighbors better...I also pledge to buy the stupid grocery sacks they sell at the grocery store and cut down on my families use of plastic bags.

so click on this link and take 2 minutes to watch this video...and I hope you will make a pledge too!

I have finally finished a couple of my past photo shoots...

I am finally getting caught up...only 2 more to edit before my next shoot.  I hate being sick...on all levels, I get so behind on everythng.  Staying up until 2:30 AM every morning for 2 months straight finally caught up to me.  But when I finally get these shoots done It just feels so good to pass these photos on to their families. 

Here is one more sneak peak for my favorite cousin Kristen...

 

My little Kyle and Kayla are growing up to quickly...

I have been taking this families pictures since their mom and dad were engaged...I can't believe how fast 4 years have gone by.  Their mom decided to have a western party for them this year, so we decided to head up to New River and shoot some photos of them in front of this great little Western Gem in the Desert.  I really loved shooting here...the kids were so into all of Western Memorabilia that they hardly paid any attention to me at all.  I loved that I was able to capture a couple candid photos of them just interacting with each other.

     

 

   

 

 

Reggy Baby turned "17" today!!!

I gathered up a few of my daughters friends, her sister and her adopted mom and headed to Ah-So's for dinner and then a movie.  Our waitor's name was "Yahoo", he was a character and helped make Reggies birthday the best!!! He made her a cake out of fried rice and even put a candle on it...

 

 

 

Just for Fun

So I begged my girlfriend to go to the park with me so I could get some family shots with the leaves all on the ground, but they pretty much all blew away.  Of course including a 3 year old in any photo shoot makes for a great day anyways, so I just followed him around and let him tell me how he wanted his photos taken and where...

 

 

   

And here is his way cute mom and dad...

Everyone Needs a Fairy Godmother like this...

So I have kinda been going thru some tough times lately...as if we all aren't, right? But my girlfriend Tiffany gave me this really cute card this morning and I wanted to share it. 

 

If I could

I'd Find a Fairy Godmother

With a Magical Wand

And Combat Boots

So that She Could Grant

Your Wishes and Kick

The Crap Outta Anything

That Tried to Get in The Way

Of Your Happiness

Don't you think we could all use this Fairy Godmother in our lives?  Thank you Tiff for brightening my day!  You are such an "Awesome" friend!!!!
