Computer hell
I woke up to computer hell this morning. What are the odds that BOTH my computers will be belly up and unable to use. I am in a state of major panic right now as I have tons of work to do. I am resigned to my Icrap to get my blog written and then my hands will be tied...
Holiday fun
This is the time of year I get to meet a bunch of new families and visit with old. It's holiday picture time and it's in full swing! This weekend I photographed two new (to me) families. One family I know, but have never photographed and the other family is...
Vegas Fun
I am sitting in my Vegas hotel room on a chaise lounge with a beautiful view of the city. This last 24 hours has been a giddy one for me. I was so nervous going in; totally out of my comfort zone. I'm so glad I talked to Richard at Pro Photo before I went. He...
One chance
Funny thing happened to me when I walked into my new blog....I took a wrong turn! Yesterday I posted in the 'wrong' part of my blog and I got a message from my friend about it. For all the hard work she did I couldn't figure it out. But when I caught myself, it was...
I’m in!
Okay, so this morning, I actually logged in to this account to do my blog. So, I’m settling into my new home at WordPress. So, I wonder…..who started this whole “BLOG” thing?? I remember a few years ago, my friend told me something about her “blog”. I had no idea...
Anatomy of a squirrel
Yesterday I was at a photo session and I had a major epiphany about my life! I was shooting and looking at these adorable boys and I looked up and saw Pelicans flying in formation. I instantly pointed my camera and started taking pictures of the Pelicans and then...
Oh me oh my…..
Okay, so I have created a few different blogs. I'm so random, I can't stick to one. But yesterday I get a message from one of my besties and lifelong friends that, in her sleep she has created a blog for me! I gotta be honest, I wasn't really sure what she meant. ...
This and that
Already a harried morning. I’m wrapping up some projects and realized I wasn’t even close to being done. More pictures needed. So I had to run off to the dance studio to take some headshots. Part of being a dance “family” is the comfort level of all the people you...

Chicken soup prevails!!!
Another day; another sick kid! Okay…same sick kid, but you know what I mean! She is definitely on the upswing; but let me tell ya….my week is shot to you know what!! Anything I had planned had to be rearranged, or all together ditched. And though I’m letting her...
Decisions decisions…..
Another morning with chicken soup for breakfast. We are definitely on the mend, but I would put her at 70% and no more. I’m not sure school is in her future today; but I feel really bad keeping her out, because she will have that much more to make up. And she...
Rearranging…..
Okay, so I have to say. I took the summer off from Weight Watchers and I haven't’ gone back yet and I’m kind of thankful. Because my daughter is home sick and I don’t have to fret!! I DO have to rearrange my schedule; but thankfully, I can be here for her and all is...
Another early morning…
So, 5:30 it is! I know that sometimes your body resets itself. As I started working out regularly again in recent weeks, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. When I was running I would pop out of bed and my shoes would be on within minutes. It was easy to get up. But...
Faith and sleep deprivation
Up at 5am again with total clarity! No wonder I’m tired all the time. Every problem I have comes FLOODING forward and gets my mind reeling. Sometimes I feel like I’ll never unbury myself. I wonder if there is any hope. The house has termites; the air conditioner...
BEACHHHHHHHH
Yesterday I hadt the honor of photographing a 50th bday party at the Cliff’s Restaurant in Laguna Beach. Do you know my favorite place in the world? Laguna Beach. Funny enough; in all my years in Orange County, I had never been to the Cliffs Restaurant before. When I...
You want us to do WHAT???
So a guy walks into a bar……… Just kidding; but that is kind of how I feel like starting this morning, because something weird happened this week. We got a call from a TV network about our vehicles. We own Mazda’s and apparently they are doing a show about putting...
Uncontrolled laughter
Oh my goodness..... I just laughed so hard that my whole lower abdominal area is sore!!! Have you ever done that? There are too few times that I laugh that hard and can't control myself. Unfortunately, it usually happens at church. I'm not proud of this fact; and...
There’s an App for that!
Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday....... I'm looking for new ideas. I'm trying to switch it up a bit. My old system of remember stuff isn't working, so this morning I Googled "Time Management". I remember years ago I got a book; "Time Management for Unmanageable...
