Mon Préféré

On the way to the tire swing park, we came across a hill with massive tulips that were planted by the fire station.  My favorite tulips are the ones that are black as midnight... and they had them planted with soft pink ones.  It was gorgeous!  

Tire Swing Park...

Happiness can always be found on a swing... especially on a tire swing!

Spoke Too Soon...

Given my comment yesterday on Etsy sales being slow... bring that total up!  Add 3 more!  Thanks for all the support everyone! Muuah!

Oh Business...

Etsy sales are slow going... since February I have sold 4 photos.  But, I can't complain!  A sale is a sale.  ;)

Spreading the word on Facebook has helped... created a page for my business & linked it to my Etsy shop.  Now I have a wedding booked on August 7th for a friend Jamie and I am hoping to do some head shots for another friend, Sarah, for her upcoming Miss Oregon Pageant.  Whoo-hoo!  

I will keep ya posted!

Loves!

Well, that was fun...

Messed up my old blog... lost the blog name and everything.  So here I am again... At least I was able to import all the previous posts!  Whew!  ;) 

The Sun Came Out...

Playing around in the backyard today, Gwen asked me to take a photo of her... Here is what she picked.

Fire Station...

Gwen's Daisy troop got to visit our local Fire Station for a tour. It's right down the street from us and we pass it when we go to Safeway, so Gwen was very excited to see the inside. A few pics...

We may have a future Fire Gal on our hands...

On the Phone with Grandpa...

And I was worried that we wouldn't get Ethne off the phone! She only talked for about 4 mins, however Tristan spent a half hour talking to Grandpa. Topics ranged from... How to play the new Super Mario Bros, the rose bushes in the backyard, how we got Netflix on the Wii, and that you should always wear pants when you go outside.

Serious...

Little Intense...

Stretching...

And... The Power Laugh.

We Turned Five!!

Well, it there goes my life. The twins are now 5... wtf. hahaha!

This year we had a bowling party & the whole family turned out. Ethne got a surprise from Jeff's ex-g/f, Sarah. She had moved to Oregon but was up visiting friends that weekend so she stopped in and surprised Ethne for her birthday. It was very sweet.

Kids had a blast, as well as the bigger kids... Thanks to everyone for the presents & making the day so special.

They were trying for about 3 minutes... at one
point all the candles went out but came back on.
I asked Bri,"Did we get trick candles???"
