Personal: Saturday Morning X2

I just love weekends when we have nothing planned 🙂 Like…. this one! I got up, did a little cleaning, a little laundry, and a little baking 🙂 Jeremy did (well… is doing) a little yard work…. which is well needed since he’s been gone for the last 2 weeks! Have a wonderful weekend!

Personal: Living & Learning….

You can never stop learning.I spend a great deal of time reading, watching and attempting to understand something new. Today is no different. As I sit in my day job office, I am addressing almost 200 envelopes for an upcoming conference I am putting together- I am listening, watching, absorbing a free online workshop…. with Jasmine Star. If you aren’t familiar with her (as I wasn’t before picking up a DSLR), she’s a marketing genius, and takes some pretty photos. Thank you Creative Live for making this available for those of us who are broke, living on a prayer, and just want to learn. Don’t judge the iPhone photo 🙂

Baby: Super Spud

Our great friends Matt & Aeriel had us over for a great lunch on the grill, and to take some photos of their new little one, Annalina…. aka: Super Spud. Annalina was given the nickname long before she entered the world…. and we thought it was pretty darn cute.  They had fabulous maternity photos done by Evoke Photography in Raleigh just a few short months ago and they spent part of their shoot, paying tribute to the Super Spud. Once Jeremy & I saw these photos, we knew we wanted to play off of the theme.  Jeremy spent an afternoon creating a little Super Spud logo for her, we got a onesie, and ironed it on 🙂 I also put my little sewing machine to work, and made a red cape! You can’t be a super hero without a cape, right!?!? 4 bags of Idaho potatoes later, some strange looks at the grocery store, and we were off!
