Surprise!!! Surprise!!!

Let me Tell Ya! Christmas Eve was not the day I had planned. 6 girls in my very just cleaned the day before house. I was stressed! But kids are my life! So bring it on right! Fortunately, all the kids were happy and the weather was great for out door play. I seriously don't think they came in but for a couple of hours to watch a movie. So what is the point of this blog? My husband and I changed up the family tradition and instead of going to Granny's house for dinner we hopped in the car to go to Church for an old fashioned Christmas Eve Service. Everyone is in the car...ofcourse I am the last one in because of lights needing turned off and the house needing to be locked up. I get to the car and go to sit down and what is in my seat? My gift from my beloved Man that started me on this photography journey....A new lense!!!!! YAY!!! So these are some of the things we saw on the way to church and what our little girls got to experience. By the way...going camping again in a few days. You can still reach me on my cell to schedule appointments. Thank you everyone for blessing my family this year and helping me have the most awesome job on the face of the earth. Can't wait 'til next year. Keep your light shining. Love,Michele

Oh Christmas Tree.Oh Christmas Tree.

Merry Cristmas! and Happy New Year!

This truely is the most wonderful time of year for me and my family. We not only celebrate with our friends and family but we try to reflect on the fact that it is our Risen Savior's birthday. Unfortunately, my Nativity seen is not in the best shape since Rachel decided to break all the peices to it last Christmas. We do have a new tree in our house this year with some really cute handmade ornaments from Mom. This year has been quite special for me. All the girls helped decorate it. Most trees have been decorated with out the help of my children, but I thought I would turnover a new leaf and chill out...let the tree look it's best with the kids decorating it. I have to say it turned out beautiful. My husbands says it is a tree on Jennie Craig (lol)but it fits quite nicely in my family room. Well I hope you enjoy some of my little ornaments. God bless you on Christmas and your New Year to follow. Michele

Little Critters

OK. So I got some new actions. Yah!! Let me tell you. I love them. "Totally Rad Actions" are they not totally rad!!. Look at my little friend, Abby's puppy. She is adorable. Her name is Cinderella or Cindy for short. Of course, Abby named her after her favorite princess.

Trials and Tribulations

What trials and tribs? Three boys, three totally different personalities and three boys that were not feeling very well. They really were wanting to just play and have a great time on their lake front property. Wouldn't we all like to bottle some of that energy or capture it somehow?HUM! What a beautiful family to work with, I can't wait 'til we do this again! I am so happy to give you a great family portrait.

Camp "Zoloft"

Here are a few pictures of us camping. Camping is so awesome for my family and I. Such a need for us to reunite. Sitting around campfires is the best when your with your kids, roasting marshmallows, drinking a glass of wine, sharing stories and jokes. I think I have mentioned my Em and her since of humor before. She proclaimed that there really is a chill pill out there. It is called Zoloft. We were all rolling with laughter. OK. I hope no one is offended by this comment. There are so many people out there with a need for this medicine and absolutely nothing wrong with taking it. I have to say, camping is my Zoloft. Being one with nature and it's beauty. It is absolutely the most refreshing thing.

Little Bit of Love

OH! Taking pictures is always so much better when it is some one you love. I did my brother and his first family portrait yesterday (actually the second) but the first ones got filed incorrectly, oops. These were soooo much better the second time around. Little Ryan is just now about 2 months old and definitely showing a little personality, of course not infront of the lense. I belive he may be the serious type. Sorry bros...I had to display my artistic side.

Lot of "1's"

Happy Birthday Camdon, Nickole and Wade! What a busy but fun day! These kiddos really kept us busy and will keep me busy for a little while longer. Camdon is standing for the longest time here while he refreshes himself from the workout that Daddy, Mommy and I were giving him. Nickole was just the best little Angel she is one month old here. I was able to meet her Mommy and Daddy at the baby Expo in Tampa this year. What a wonderful new family to add to my ensemble. Of course, I cannot leave out my little Wade. He is the first baby I have gotten to experience all of his milestones with. Birth, 3months, 6 months, 9 months (in the shortening can) and Now at 12 months. He is such an adorable little HAM and dear to my heart and his sist and brother are equally special and precious to me. Thank you Zoey for my artwork they are on the frdge with my girl's work.
