"So much to do, so little time..."

This was the first thing I woke up thinking this morning. There were soooo many things I really needed to get done today - mainly in the form of photog biz stuff. My list of call backs, album creations, photo editing is literally enough to keep me busy for the next 3 weeks. However, being that it was President's day AND with Sam home from school today AND because it was 75 degrees out with the most beautiful, big blue sky I knew I just had to take this opportunity to be with my kids... OUTSIDE.

We spent 4 glorious hours at a park in Gilbert where we had lunch, dug for dinosaur bones, enjoyed a relaxing nature walk learning all about the various Arizona vegetation and animal life and I have to say I have some of the greatest children EVER. We had fun, we explored nature, we climbed trees... we just had lots of fun together.

I love you kiddos... I'm so glad I get to be your mom!!

Tough Mudder

Here are some videos of the Tough Mudder challenge that Scott took part in (January 2012). So incredibly proud of these guys... I present to you... the Dirty Dads! And here is a FUNNY video I took of the final obstacle...not of the boys, but still so hilarious to watch!

Random photos...

Whenever I have a photo shoot planned at my house in my little “studio” I always beg and plead with the kiddos to sit for just a second so that I can get the lights and set up just right before the actual shoot. Well, in doing that, I always end up with the most random of photos... ENJOY! [taken December 2011]

Brody stories...

Here’s another Brody story for ya... A few weeks ago the kids put in a Wii game to play. Shortly after the game began Samantha calmly walked over to me at my desk and in a super low voice said, ‘umm Mom, Brody just said a bad word’. Mind you we have taught our kids that words like stupid, jerk and shut up are all bad words so I wasn’t sure what to believe or expect. I then said ‘are you sure it was a REAL bad word’...to which she enthusiastically said, ‘oh, I’m definitely SURE this is a bad word’. Well, not wanting to spoil the plot I told her not to tell me and that I will just have him tell me. I called Brody over and with an oh-so-cool-matter-of-fact-tone I just asked Brody what he said while playing the Wii game? In his equally oh-so-cool-matter-of-fact-tone he said [referring to the Wii game] ‘oh, I just told Sam let’s get in there and kick their ass’! I know the boy should have had a bar of soap shoved in his mouth, but really??!! How can you not chuckle...or in my ca...

Juggling it all...
