Wild and crazy kids!  Three is chaos, I always say that . Sarah somehow manages to do what I strive for-  keep all her hair and never raise her voice!

Happy Birthday Camille!  It took us a few chances to finally get together for Camille pictures, and I am so glad it finally worked out!  She is an absolute doll!

It’s hard to believe that it’s almost Christmas.  This time of year we often hear- “Where has the year gone?” or “This year can’t be over yet”.  But it is and how odd it seems to say- 2010.  I remember how strange the idea of the year 2000 sounded- but the year 2010 sounds even more foreign. Highway 165 was scheduled to be completed this year- and I thought that was eternity away when the work first started in Olla.  Yet, it’s almost 2010 and no flying cars or jet packs like we all expected back in 1985.   

Hasn’t this year been a rough year all around?  Primarily the recession hit hard!  My household was certainly affected.  My family recently lost a loved one, just last week.  It seems that October was a blur of hospitals, waiting rooms and ultimately a funeral.  I do confess, I am a crybaby.  I spent the entirety of October crying, not so much for me, but the others I knew where hurting and feeling so helpless.   I’ll have to get off this subject soon or I’ll be crying again!     Basically, funerals suck and my family has had way too much experience with them.  Please Lord, let us not have another for a while.

Coming out of such a bad month and heading toward the holidays, I feel it particularly important to be thankful for my family and many blessings.  My hugs are a little firmer and longer this week.  Since it’s a time for celebration and giving- so here’s my gift for those who book a Fall or Christmas Session.  I am offering the following:
