The Pillow Fight!

So its Christmas, yes we all know it and time for Christmas cards.....my favorite thing about Christmas....making the cards and thinking of great new ideas to take photos.  This year I got to do a friend of mines card again, and I got to take the photos too.  She wanted to do a pillow fight!  The girls had so much fun with it!  We barely used any of the feathers from the pillow she bought, but you don't need alot of have fun!

Here are some of the photos:

Its been a while!

Hello all!  Its been a crazy few months in my home.  My father in law had part of his leg amputated, Monkey turned two and we found out we are adding to our family in July!  Needless to say I have been a busy and sick mommy!  That is all on top of being a full time teacher and two blogs for class!

So here is what I have decided to do:  beginning Jan 1st I am going to doing a 365 Daily Creativity Journal!  I purchased 365, Make Something Every Day and Change your life!  I am super excited to do it!!!  I am going to use my blog to not only motivate me to do it each day, but a way to show off my lovely work!!!

Now my first obstacle- a theme!  The author of the book did the theme of skulls!  Skulls are not my thing!   So what should I do??????  Any suggestions?????  Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.............

Vote for me!

So I entered a contest, not something I do often, but anywho, if you want to vote please do, you can vote once per day!

A Taste of Vintage

I love to blog.  I really do.  I love to create my blog and talk about different things.  I also love to read blogs.  It really a fun way to spend a rainy or cold evening after Monkey is asleep.  Of course lately I haven't had much time to really blog.  I post stuff for my students on the chs digital camera blog and the photoshop blog, but not my own blogs.  So, after the crazy homecoming week I needed to sit down and put a post up with the wonderful photos I took today of Monkey.  We went to Pinter's Pumpkin Patch.  Lots to see and do!  They had my husband muralist from Minneapolis do the photo stands and they are WONDERFUL!  Craig did a great job!

I also got my A Taste of Vintage photo done for MCP Project 52.  The goats were a popular place for Monkey to be, she petted them and gave them air kisses.....yes air, no blowing kisses! Just a little tweaking in RAW and I was good to go.  Got to love have a Canon 7d! I downloaded Rita's Vintage Frames 14.  You can get the here!  I just love the goats look here....."its like huh, what, a air kiss, I want a real one!"
