I made these Earring Frames for my sisters and sisters-in-law for Christmas, but held off on posting the “how-to” until now…because I STILL haven’t given my sister Katie her present. I didn’t want to give away what it was. But, I’ve waited long enough. I’ll finally be seeing her soon, and if she sees this [...]

Tim and I drove out to Arizona for a cousin’s wedding this past week. On our way (okay, so it was really out of our way), we made a stop in Sedona for some mountain biking. We planned to camp in the bed of our truck the night we arrived, then head out to the [...]

Lily, Barbie, and Heather:

The lion on the front is a copy of the Finnish national emblem, but Carter was excited that [...]

Here are [...]

…for family Christmas pictures! I recently took some pictures for a few of my coworkers and their families. These nurses clean up pretty nice, don’t you think?
First was Karen and 9 of her family members at Heritage park:
Remember Randi and Andy from their maternity shots? Here they are with their adorable little boy, Brooks:

We didn’t get to spend much time in Eureka, but we tried to make the best of what we had. Mindy suggested that we drive down the “Avenue of the Giants” on our way back, and I’m glad we followed her suggestion!
The “Avenue of the Giants” is a portion of old Hwy 101 in Humboldt [...]

Tim and I stole Carter and Lily from their parents and took them to visit their baby cousin, Leanna way up north. They’re all pretty goofy and very cute.
Leanna wasn’t so sure about these “big kids” and their shenanigans in her crib…
…but, she soon joined in the fun.
Carter may be one of the craziest boys [...]

Do you remember Brandon and Stefanie’s maternity pictures at Laguna Beach? Brody is about 1 month old now, and he is so cute! This week, Katie and Joey joined me to take a few pictures of him. Brody was so good with the three of us and a bunch of lights in his face. : ) [...]
