sweet sweet Sadie

It was an honor and privilege to document this sweet baby.




Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to meet your precious girl.

words cannot express

the saddness that I feel today.

For the little life that we never got to know.

Dear friends of ours are delivering their still-born baby girl today. I will be doing the photography.

Please pray.

Well, after having a really crummy (crumby, crumy, how do you spell that?) week, I knew things were going to look up with a wonderful photo shoot with the most awesome kiddos ever. And it totally did. I could have shot them forever. Except everyone was freezing. Silly Colorado still thinks it's winter. But they rocked it out anyway. So completely awesome.







oh my gosh, the most gorgeous eyes ever!


And this one's for when she's a rock star one day. :) I just HAD to play with this one.

I've had the crappiest week ever. Truly. But I'm ready to move on. This weekend is full of fun stuff like a photo shoot, and soccer, and starbucks, and more soccer, and family movie night, and finishing my latest painting, and more good stuff I'm sure.
And I might be especially emotional today, but this trailer made me cry. I cannot even express how excited I am to see this.

I promise I won't show flower pictures everyday. :)

But I am in love with these petals. Happy Wednesday everyone.

Is it only Tuesday?

I ran a million errands yesterday and got nothing accomplished. Today's going to be better. Ready set go!

Monday thoughts

You know it's spring when you can't stop thinking about organizing. This is about the time of year that I start to freak out that the kids will be out of school soon and if I don't get the house organized now, it's not going to happen. Have any of you tried to clean out a cupboard when your kids are home?...everything becomes a treasure and MUST be kept. :)
Meanwhile, I need to get some business stuff in order. And try to wake up. And work on some pendants. And do laundry and grocery shopping. Normal Monday stuff. I think a little Corrine Bailey Rae is in order. Her music is very "spring-y" to me.

from my son :)

Taken with his DSi...he wanted to put some blog-love out there. :) Happy Easter Peeps!

I thought I was just tired and in need of coffee, but now that I've had 2 HUGE cups of coffee and some breakfast, I realize that I'm dizzy. Like, walking a straight line is a challenge. Maybe I blew my nose too hard and I did something to my inner ear (I can just hear my hubby saying "you're talking out your a**"). I think I might lay down for a bit and see if this just goes away. If it doesn't, I'm going to get myself a huge Diet Coke. Diet Coke makes everything better (right Dawn?!) :)

Oh, today, I saw my dream kitchen. Click below and scroll down a bit.
best kitchen EVER
I am IN-LOVE-OH-MY-GOSH-I-COULD-JUST-DIE with that green tile. Can you just imagine cutting a beautiful red pepper with that green tile surrounding you!?! (((sigh)))

A few items...

New in my store! :) I finally got a circle cutter so I can make round pendants! So excited! Here's the first one that I am offering in my store:


And here is the result of me being antsy before church on Sunday:
Made from fresh water pearls and sterling silver and offered in my store as well. :)
And this gem is NOT offered in my store. hehe!

My wonderful Mom made this for me over the weekend. Heather Bailey and Amy Butler fabric...yummy!!!! And it's ginorous! Can't wait to fill it up!
Okay, I'm off and running...lots of laundry and clients to call and dinner to make and letters to mail.
