Making Cookies

We made cookies for the first time together. Sage did great and I was pleasantly surprised by what a great attention span she had. She stuck with it until the chocolate chips and M&M's were added. Then, she only wanted to eat them. Who can blame a girl though?










Sage was watching 101 Dalamtians the other night, while me and Scott were painting the kitchen. All of a sudden she burst out sobbing....real sobbing. We ran down to the living room, thinking she had hurt herself. No, she was crying because one of the dalmatians was hanging from a window sill and she though it was going to fall and get hurt. For those of you that know me well.......all I can say is SHE IS MY DAUGHTER.

New Lens




My niece Sadie


I bought a new lens for my camera that I am loving. It is a fixed 50 mm f1.8. There is no zoom, so that is an adjustment, but it gives that background blur that I so love. It is the signature look of Karen Russell, the person I am taking the photography class from. That class starts next month. Can't wait. Here are some of my first shots with the new lens. The picture of me and Scott was taken by the wonderful Laura Davis.
