Eyes.

Can two girls have eyes that are more stunning?
I think not...


p.s. I have been feeling the itch to write again, so be prepared. It's coming...

Favorite Picture.

I have been following my lovely Best Friend's Photo Blog.

She is the bomb diggity. No Joke.
She gives out assignments,
and her assignment this week was to pick one of my favorite pictures.
Because I am a rebel...
I am choosing two.
One from a couple months back and one from this past week.

From This Week

From Several Weeks Ago.

To Be Quite Honest...
I am not sure that these are my ALL time favorites,
BUT
if I think about it too hard, my head would explode!

Cute...

I am entering a contest, and the challenge is CUTE...

I have no children,
except all of my friend's kids,
who I am second mama to.

I decided on a picture of a
little one I am a second mama to.

I also chose one photo of my kitten
because she is most definitely CUTE!

Enjoy!

Here's a sneak peak into the photo shoot I did today!

Repost for My Daddies...

I wrote these last father's day, but I felt compelled to repost them this father's day.
Happy Father's Day!
I love you!

Dear Daddy (Cooper),

You are the daddy that has known me the longest. You were the first man to hold me in your arms and the first to whisper I love you. Some of my fondest memories in my childhood are those of you tucking me in, tickling me until I cried, bouncing me on your knee, laughing with you until my belly hurts, hugs where I thought I was going to explode from your love for me, and watching you watch me. You have watched me grow up, and you continue to watch me grow.

You have always been the one to challenge me...You push me towards greater things, accomplishing things greater than myself. You challenge me to step down when I get too high strong. You challenge me to give my best in all that I do...never half doing anything. You challenge me to persevere even when it hurts, hang tight when the waves of life are crashing around.

You've always believed in me. Believed I was capable of more than I often thought myself to be capable of. Applauded when I accomplished something, and say," I knew you'd do it." You caught me when I have fallen under the weight and pressures of this world, and you have had great mercy and kindness for me in the midst of those times.

Most importantly, you've given me Jesus. You have followed the Lord with great integrity. Being similar in personality and character traits, you have helped me see the Lord's hand in shaping me and molding in those areas where you have already seen the Lord shape you.

You showed me how a man should love a woman, so I could know how to choose this for a husband. You love mom passionately, deeply, and without swaying. Your marriage is an example of a marriage done God's way. It is one to be treasured and thankful for.

You will be the grand-daddy to my babies, and I am so thankful for this. You are the best grand-daddy, and I know this because I know how much you love me, my sister, my brother, Brian, and the grand-daughter that is here already. You have a generous heart that hurts when you can't give more. Thank you for all that you have given for us. Thank you for all your sacrifice. You have always given us the best, and led us along a road of excellence. I love you to the moon and back, and I am eternally thankful that my earthly daddy is such an example of my heavenly daddy.

<3 Daddy (Dean), Marriage is a blessing for many reasons, and one of those reasons is you. I get another daddy in my life. Thank you for welcoming me into your family with open arms... Your first daughter (a whole new ball game;). Thank you for raising Brian so well. He is the incredible man that he is because of you. You two really are two peas in a pod. I love seeing you together. One of the reasons I fell in love with Brian was because I watched his interaction with you. You two have an incredible relationship. You are a man of great character and perseverance. You show me how to make lemonade out of lemons. You a very humble man, and you are always quick to recognize your own weaknesses and lean more heavily into Jesus when you see them. You are a servant, giving all that you have to those around you. I know that the Lord is molding you and shaping you, and daily, you are becoming more like your savior. I always look forward to your arms when I arrive in LA. You always give me a warm, long hug and a bit wet kiss on my cheek, when I arrive. I love how your face lights up when we walk in the door. It makes me feel special. I love that you always have a project waiting for Brian because he gets excited about doing projects with you. Thank you for all that you do and all that you are. I love you, and I am so thankful that I am blessed to have you as my second daddy. Love.

Favorite Photos...

Ok... I had a homework assignment from:

My assignment was to post my
all time favorite photos
that I have ever taken.
So Here they are!

To be Quite Honest, I am not sure which of my photos are my all time favorites,
but these were the first to come to mind.

Without a doubt, this is one of my all time favorites.
When I take photos, I love to capture someone's eyes...
to capture their essence.
A person's eyes speak volumes.
In someway, it seems to be a window into their soul.

She most definitely has gorgeous eyes...

I chose this second picture because it is timeless to me.
I love it when I take a picture that you cannot tell when it was taken or where.
A picture that transports you to a memory in your past.
Also, I have been falling in love with the heart of little boys,
and I feel this photo captures the essence of boyhood.
I am secretly asking the Lord that we get a little boy first...
shhhhh!
Don't tell!

I chose this last picture...
Well, not because it is an amazing picture.
It really isn't.
I titled this picture BUTT PUMPKIN.
I feel that this picture captures a bit of who I am.
I love finding the humor in life.
Laughing at life...the little details of life,
so I love capturing the funniness of life in my photos.


Which one is your favorite?
