My Birthday.....

Well, yesterday was my 29th birthday, and it was a crazy day!! First my husband and I got up at 3am to go shopping while my kids stayed with Grandma. We finally got home around 12:30 and I had a shoot at 2. Then I came home, my sweet hubby got me the best dinner ever!! (Mac Grill with nothing other than my fav chocolate cake) And then I edited pics and finally went to bed at about 9:30 and my baby boy starting throwing up at 10:30! Poor thing! Soooo, it is now 9am and all is well for now in our household. To start the morning I thought I would post a few pics from yesterday! I love this family!! Little O is such a princess and wanted to wear her dress and the petti skirt. Too funny!! Enjoy!

Silent Night, I don't think so....

Well that is what his shirt said anyways. But that is definitely not him. He was so smiley and happy that I don't think he could take a sad picture. Y'all are the cutest family and little A did a GREAT job! Thanks for all the sweet smiles and enjoy your preview.

Two L's......

So yesterday I got to shoot the two sweet little L's!! They are so adorable, and I even love the crying pictures. Note to self:9 month olds may not like frilly skirts and cute hats. Jennifer I can't wait to get your Christmas card made and I hope you love the pics!!

I had to add a crying one!!

Christmas Cards & Gifts

I just wanted to post a reminder that if you were thinking about getting pictures for a beautiful custom Christmas card or you wanted to give pictures as gifts this year, the deadline to be sure you get these in time for Christmas is to have your session complete by December 8th. This gives me enough time to edit and get your order placed and delivered before Christmas. This has been a great year and I hope to hear from you.

Congratulations to the winners of the free session fee with 25% off their orders:
Stephanie Heady
Miriam Clouse
Jen Ramey
Lori Sams

I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

Let's Go Sledding!!

I am so excited about these. I got to take my kids Christmas card pics, and I don't care if everyone sees them before I send out my card. The card is still a fun surprise though!! I just knew I would get maybe one good pic of the kids because Austin never looks at me and Elise gives her fake smile, but today went GREAT!! I am so excited about these, so I will share just a few of the ones I love and leave the rest for Christmas time!!! Enjoy!!

My Friend and Mentor.....

I had the privilege of taking a few family pics for Kim. She has taught me so much, and I know she will never know what a blessing she is!! Check out her blog to see more, but here are just a couple I played with. Thanks Kim. I love your girls, they are hilarious!!!! I had to throw the funny one in!

Just for Fun...

First, I would like to say that my favorite blog to read is called Bring the Rain. If you have read her story you will know why. She is an amazing Christian women and an inspiring writer. This week she challenged her readers to 7 days of prayer over our children. I have added her prayer button to the right, and if you would like to read her challenge, please feel free. We can't pray enough for our children!!

Second, I have decided to change my pricing. As we all know, the economy is not great, and as much as I love photography, my desire is that anyone who would love to have it hanging in their homes and enjoy those memories for years to come, should be able to afford it. So, I have decided to lower my prices for the time being.

Keep checking my blog, I am so excited about Christmas that I will be offering some fun deals in the upcoming days and weeks. I am thinking free session fees and 40% of prints and any other great deals I can come up with.

Thanks for reading,
Tabitha
