Christmas sessions

Yes, Christmas season is in full swing and we are actually at the end of it.  I have extended my Christmas dates till November 23rd for those of you who are wanting portraits for Christmas cards or gifts.  Spaces are limited but there are still a few times available.  I finally put one of my ideas in play and I think it turned out great!  I was wanting to offer something different this year for Christmas presents so we made a portrait clock. 

Baby K

So, I get a Facebook request today from my mother in law adding me as a friend and I got so tickled because I knew the only reason she set that up was because I have not been posting any pictures to my blog.  She always ask "have you posted anything lately"  and my reply "no, but I have to facebook"  she got tired of waiting on me haha.  But, here I am and I am posting the beautiful  baby K.
With this new blog design if you click on the picture the rest will come up ( I think.....)

I hate that I don't have much time to blog anymore :(  and can't believe it has been close to a month since my last post.  I have been trying to stay on top of editing because we are going on vacation in a couple of weeks and Kelly (my assistant) is on vacation for 2 WEEKS!!  wow! that was nice of me huh!??!   just kidding she knows I love her!

Okay, here are several from several different sessions!

WOW!  that is a whole LOT of  pretty babies!  I LOVE my job!!!!!

Free Kittens

I have 3 precious kittens and one very sweet and affectionate cat that I need to find a good home.  The kittens are 6 weeks old and litter box trained.  The two black ones are females and the black and white one is a male.
The momma cat is super sweet and appox 1 year old.  She showed up at my house pregnant so I had to take her in.  I couldn't leave her for no one to take care of her and her babies.  I can't keep her because my cat has been terribly mad at me since "Sugar" showed up :(.  (we call her Sugar because she is so sweet )  She will go outside if forced haha but she likes to stay inside. :) You can't really tell from the pics but "Sugar" has beautiful green eyes.     Please help me find them good homes..... if interested call me 290-1204.
Please excuse the pics they were taken with my daughter's point and shoot ;)

American Kids Special Edition

June 13-18

Just in time for 4th of July and perfect for our military families.

These sessions are limited and Saturday fills the quickest so if you want a spot don't wait.

Below is what the 6x8 portrait tile will look like. :)

On the morning of April 13, 2011 I took kids to school and I had to go and get some cat food because my cat was out and she was angry with me so I had to get her something to eat before I came to work.  As I was on my way back to work I saw this "thing" in the road and I though it was a baby bird that had fallen out a tree.  I passed it and got to thinking..... I have to come down this road everyday and if that bird gets hit I will be so upset because I could have done something, so I turn around and headed back to scoot it out of the road to give it some kind of chance.  Well to my surprise it was NOT a bird it was a kitten!.  His eyes were still shut and his umbilical cord was still there. He was the length of my palm.  Kelly (my assistant) and i took turns bottle feeding him and ALL the things a momma cat does.  It was def. like having a newborn around again.  I was up every 3 hours feeding him.  Kelly took him on the weekends.
We thought really hard for a name and I came up with Master...............it fits perfect!  Kelly and I were his servants and i am still at his beck and call because he is ROTTEN!!!!!!
Master is 8 weeks old today and spoiled as ever!

Since I have been REALLY bad on posting this I will extend this through the first week of June.  It did get posted to facebook  but for some reason my blog got skipped.  Sorry.
