A quick sneak peek of a fantastic newborn session from this weekend. So many gorgeous images from this that I will have a ridiculously hard time narrowing it down when I post. Luckily you won't have to wait long as I was so in love with each image that I went straight through my processing and finished the entire session in one day. Look for it later this week!
Thought I'd share. I needed a set of Valentines cards for my kids to give out that weren't, you know, stupid. Or didn't imply anything that they didn't want to imply (Indy: "MOM, gross, I can't say 'be my valentine' to everyone in class! There are boys too, ugh!") These are not-too-frilly, not-too-lovey so I think they'll work.
Sized 11"x8.5" they should print in most standard color printers. They're 4-up, so print on something a bit heavier than plain paper, cut in half horizontally and half again vertically and you have 4 less valentines to buy. Works as is or will fit perfectly in your standard No. 5-1/2 invitation envelope. The original can be downloaded from my Flickr site, HERE. I also have a some other designs from past years over there: here (girls) and here (boys).
Wow, a new year already. I took my dog, a Golden Retriever named Gator, for a walk this afternoon. To say it was brisk would be an understatement, but once we got going, I was actually pretty warm. I did have to take off and put on mittens several times to keep my fingers from feeling real pain, but a cold shooting hand is a necessary evil in outdoor winter photography. I had slip-on metal grips on the bottoms of my shoes and felt pretty safe on the icy path and frozen snow. Poor Gator had a few cartoon-style spin outs on the ice but he quickly figured out that walking in the snow kept him on his feet and the two of us plodded along, picking our paths in absolute silence. It was just what I needed to start the year.
I made this recipe and yes, they are exactly as good as they look. And they weren't all that difficult. Just good. So, so good. I added crushed peppermints to the top after they came out of the oven and made them even extra amazing. If you're looking for the quintessential holiday cookie, this is a contender!
2 brothers, 2 wives, 2 mothers, 2 fathers, 2 daughters, 2 dogs, 2 days and a 2-hour Uno game = Thanksgiving 2010.
