Flashback Friday

Tomorrow afternoon, the girls and I are heading to visit our friends :) One of Big wee one's favorite friends and Little wee one loves them as well. I'm excited to catch up with the mom and just let the kids go crazy for a bit...see you soon friends!

Itchy, sneezy, sniffly, watery, red eyes.

This girl is struggling :( Poor thing...born with allergies that attack her big giant blue eyes.

She gets the worst sneezes and coughing from the drainage, and there isn't much we can do besides keep her filled with claritin. In a couple of weeks, it will pass and she'll be so much happier! But just so you know, this is what our house has been like the last week or so :( BOOOOO!

Here she is in May of '08...very unhappy toddler, boy oh boy is she cute though! WOW...she was a freaking adorable little munchkin (and yes I am biased) :)

Hope your allergies are making you suffer!
Till the sniffles and sneezes stop!

Simple

I am trying...desperately, to stay a little more up to date with blogging :) I took this picture while I was away at the Savvy Workshop and just love it. Still lifes like this one, remind me of college, which reminds me of painting, which reminds me of my denim calvin klein denim overalls (yea, so what...I rocked some denim overalls! hehe), which reminds me of my favorite painters shirt, which then turned into my favorite pottery shirt, which also reminds me of how expensive it is to buy paint supplies, but also reminds me how much I LOVE art.
Whenever we get more space, I'm going to take up painting again :)
Happy Hump Day!

Busy Bunch

Yup. It's that time of year again...when our visions of Daddy are just like the one below. Him down on the field, us on the bleachers. So far, the season has been great and we have had ridiculously beautiful weather!
Look...the gazelle has spotted us in the jungle of the bleachers!

During lax season we get reunited with long lost friends!

Besides lacrosse, we have been a very busy family! I was gone for 4 days at a photography workshop and I loved every.single.second; and I hope to blog about that experience and some pictures from the event soon.

I'm just so happy with where my photography business is going. Very happy.

But I still can't get this little stinker to smile for me. Or heck, even LOOK at me!
The girl's had off for Easter, and I decided that by golly, I was going to get a picture of Little wee one to hang on the wall if it was the last thing I did that day and sure enough...I have some of the most beautiful images from the girls that day (also in my blog header) and am thrilled that I can order my big giant 16x20 print I won while I was away :)

This is another picture I love. I'm going to have it printed and framed to put in their play room.

Life is busy, as usual. Spring is in the air and we've been spending a ton of time outside (until today when Little wee ones eyes swelled up!). Big wee one starts soccer soon and is very excited about that and Paul will continue to have lax games every week until the end of May.

I have photo sessions booked until the middle of May and can't even begin to express what an amazing time I had and how much information was absorbed into my nugget!

On top of lacrosse, the girls and life the wine shop is flourishing beautifully and I'll be finishing up (I think this will be the 25th label) for a new release coming up. I'm also gathering up materials for T. Flo Photography and getting everything in order. Eeeeeekkkk!! Life is so very good right now :)

The Savvy Sisterhood Workshop

I get to GO!!!! I am seriously, beyond words excited about this workshop I'll be attending in St. Michael's, MD!! I leave on Sunday and come back Tuesday evening and the whole time I'll be learning so much from these amazing ladies:

• Jodie Otte beautiful work, simple and elegant



• Mika Beth Edwards you might want to wipe the drool after checking her out! *love*



• Kelli France



• Jessica Grieves



• Bev Hollis I know some animal lovers that would love her!



• Marta Locklear I think we could get along just nicely :)



• Melanie Mauer love her!!



• Catherine Clay HELLOOO!!! I am so lucky to be able to meet all of these ladies!



• and of course the hostess herself, Marsha Mifsud (she's amazing!! shabby chic and beautiful...the link for the workshop is on the sidebar of her blog, I tried to link it, but my internet keeps freezing up! darn thing)
  

and these are some of the topics we'll discuss:

Creating a Business that Enriches Your Life
Keeping your Sanity and the Beds Made~Getting organized regardless of your "right-brain" tendencies~Managing and valuing your time~Balancing work & family
Capturing Emotion & Non-posed Posing
Pricing and Marketing
Studio Lighting
Branding Yourself
Finding the Light
The Power of Presentation
Styling your Session
How to Rock at Sales {online or in person}
How to use social media to build relationships with your customers and increase the number of referrals
Posing and Composition
Creative Processing
Setting Yourself Apart from Others

Oh, I am just beyond excited for these couple of days and wish I could stay the extra portfolio building day, but I'll take everything I will learn and bring it back to my business here in Chambersburg. Now...if the weather is beautiful and perfect, that will make life even sweeter!

What's brings the cool factor up even more? We are staying at the hotel where they filmed Wedding Crashers...one of mine and Paul's all time favorite movies! Hehehehe....I can't wait to show him the pictures (well, show all of you the pictures!).

Hope you have an exciting weekend too! :)

Twins?

Is it because they are both girls? Because they both have the same dirty blonde hair with nice natural blond highlights? Is it because they are both sitting in a cart and you can't see how much taller one is than the other? Or for some other reason I just don't know?
Because I must get asked at least 3 times a week if they are twins, and it's not a recent thing, it's been a "their whole life" thing...even when it was way obvious that they were not twins!
Just sayin'...nope, they aren't :)

I ♥ Faces: Bundle Up!

Big wee one during one of the ridiculous snow storms we encountered! Hopefully we'll be taking lots of sun-shiny pictures soon!!
Check out I ♥ Faces and scope out the rest of the bundled up photos :)
