Back to School Photo Challenge

11Aug29_backtoschool_25

It has been a while since I’ve entered a photo in an I Heart Faces challenge. But today, I felt compelled to enter the Back to School photo challenge. I had one particular photo in mind from the first day of school 2008. I searched for the picture only to discover that it is one […]

I Heart Props

Newborn photo props

While I am attempting to have a very productive day, getting MANY other posts ready to publish, photos edited, shopping done, and exercise accomplished, I thought I’d post a quick I Heart Faces post. This week’s theme is PROPS and this coal bucket is one of my current favorite newborn props. I can’t wait to […]

Let’s Hear It For The Boys

Let's hear it for the boys

The kids and I took a quick trip down to Norfolk, Virginia this past weekend to celebrate my brother in law and new sister in law’s recent wedding (the wedding I attended in Costa Rica). After 15 or so hours in the car with 5 kids I am even more ready for my trip to […]

I Heart Flowers

I heart flowers

I would rather be heading to San Antonio this week to get together with Angie and Amy at the I Heart Faces Dream Big Workshop….but I’m still here. Working, dealing with recovering sick kids (and dreading having to go back to the doctor for a fifth time tomorrow with yet another child….). It’s perfect that […]

Motherhood - I Heart Faces

Motherhood

Yesterday was one of the best Mother’s Days I’ve had in a long time. Maybe ever. My car was washed, my hair was brushed, the perfect presents were thoughtfully purchased or made, and I was able to relax with my family and crochet almost all day. I hope all of you had a wonderful Mother’s […]

Slice of Life - I Heart Faces Challenge

San Francisco Adobe Photographers Retreat

Slice of Life: Candid. A glimpse into a moment of life. Real. This was one of my favorite “people pictures” from my Girl’s Photography Retreat with Adobe last month. This is what you get when you gather a bunch of photographers together and set them loose on a city like San Francisco. Lots of pictures, […]

People’s Choice at I Heart Faces

Reese at the park

This is Angie and Amy’s week off at I Heart Faces, so the photo challenge is a little more open. The only requirements: the photo must have a face in it, and it must have been taken during February 2011. This picture of Reese at the park fits the bill….   By the way-this little […]

Anything But a Face Photo Challenge

This week’s photo challenge at I Heart Faces is anything BUT a face. I scoured through my photos, looked at lots of little kid hands and feet, and finally settled on this picture. I love this shot from one of my all time favorite photo shoots ever. And, honestly, I was grateful to find something […]

Seeing RED in San Francisco

San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge - in reflection

I’ve only scratched the surface of my trip to San Francisco with Adobe, and you can be sure that many more photos are coming. As I was skimming through photos this morning, I realized that the Golden Gate Bridge shots would be perfect for this week’s RED theme on I Heart Faces. Because everyone knows […]

I Heart My Boy

Valentine - I Heart Faces

As much as mother could love a child, I love this little boy. I adore him. I smother him with kisses every day, and he reciprocates. Often more than I might prefer. I can count on finding him asleep in my bed when I wake up in the mornings a few times a week. Yesterday, […]
