A Night To Remember.


Last month, before Chad's job got absolutely insane, 
he was able to take our little man out for a fun night, 
just the two of them.  It's important, don't you think, 
to have those one on one experiences with your Dad?
I know the few times that I had my Dad alone,
paying attention to me and only me, 
are some of my most treasured experiences!
(It didn't happen too often - I am one of 7 children
but when it did, I felt really special!)
So off they went, to have some fun together! 

Chad took him to a Jazz Game.  
Their 2nd row tickets included a fancy candlelight dinner.  

I am so proud.  
He was even brave enough to try his first crab leg.
(He hated it, by the way.)  What can I say?  
He takes after his mom.

And much to our little man's enjoyment
the Jazz Bear was hanging out at the dinner.
Chad said the Jazz Bear kept taking Cade's hat 
and ruffling up his hair.  
Cade and the Jazz Bear are old friends.
When Cade was in 2nd Grade, the Bear picked him up 
and carried him across the stage at an awards show we were attending. 
They have been buddies ever since.
 
Here's what second row at the game looks like.  
Wow.  So much different than up in the nosebleed sections!

SO MUCH FUN!  GO JAZZ!

The private snack bar was open to them  
all during the game for unlimited soda's and snacks.
The Jazz Bear found where they were sitting 
and continued his playing and pestering.
I think Cade was loving every minute of it!

Yes, I definitely think this will be a fun memory for the 2 of them,
and I can't wait to see what their next adventure together brings.  

A Country Christmas.

G.Q.


My son grabbed his friend's jacket and 
came into my office looking all GQ - like.  
He was doing it to be funny, but I thought he looked totally awesome, 
so I made him give me a GQ pose for my camera.  

Guess we better get him an agent, because I'm 
thinking that Hollywood will be calling any minute...
Wow, my boy is cute.

Harmony, Tyler and Abby.


I have had so much fun with my family shoots this fall!  
Here are (get ready to scroll down for a while...) 
some shots from my shoot with Harmony, Tyler and little Abby.  
I am really lovin' how they turned out!  
Super nice people and darling little girl!  Thanks you guys!!

More awesomeness to come from this darling little family shoot!

Harvest time.


Chad loves to grow things.
He has such a green thumb.
I know what you're thinking...
Is there anything he can't do?
 
I know, I am a lucky girl.
I have a hubby who loves to garden.  
Just look at his carrot and pepper harvest.

Yum.  
I can already taste the delicious soups, 
salsas and stuffed peppers, 
can't you?
(which of course Chad will be making).
(yes, he cooks too).

Wait a minute, what is that?
OK maybe his gardening skills could use some work.
Anyone know how to prevent deformed carrots?

And, uh, we might need some fertilizer.

Although, these little guys are quite cute,
 wouldn't you say?
Maybe there is a market out there for 
miniature veggies.  Think they'd sell?
Why do you laugh?
I know someone who loves miniature things, 
but I won't name names.
(*cough* adelle)

Happy Harvesting.

Jen and Scott.


December 1st already!  Wow!  Where is the time going?  Hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving weekend.  I did!  Like most of you, I have been super busy, but I have managed to squeeze in lots of fun, too!  Here are a few of my favs of Jen and Scott (from Lisa's shoot).  They are so cute.  I did their wedding video last year.  Enjoy!
