Happy Halloween

Keith has the kids for halloween this year so I won't get to see them in their costumes or take them trick-or-treating. I did however convince (without much difficulty) Amélie to put her costume on last night so that I could take some pictures. Here are a few of those.

The beautiful ballerina.




The shadow of our bloody window decorations spelling "beware"!


Today has been a total blast. Melanie and I decided to dress up for work. Melanie wore her wedding dress and I wore my prom dress and of course we had to take pictures.



Then I went to Amélie's school for historical halloween where the kids have to dress up as an historical figure and give a report that they have written. Amélie was Helen Keller and she did an amazing job. She read her entire report without any help. I did not wear my prom dress to the school but my hair was still done up and I was wearing some heavy (read whorish) makeup. Keith and his girlfriend were there and I wonder if they think I just look like that all the time now. Maybe they went home thinking they need to start stepping it up a notch at school functions! Happy Halloween everyone.

Chris and Robin's wedding in California

One of my good friends from high school, Robin, got married to her long time boyfriend, Chris, last month in a beautiful spot in California. I was lucky enough to be asked to be the official photographer. I will have all of the photos color corrected and uploaded somewhere soon but for now here is a little peak at the day. Robin was absolutely gorgeous and I loved her hot pink shoes! Thank you Rob and Chris for letting me be a part of such a special day.

Happy Birthday Miss Amélie!

Amélie turned 6 last Wednesday. Here are a few pictures of the birthday girl with her new pink flamingo watering can. It is almost impossible for me to believe that it has been six years since my little girl was born. I know that I am her mom but really she is just as beautiful and infectiously happy and brilliant now as she was when she was a baby. She amazes me constantly every day.
Jessie, you should be happy now - you aren't the last post anymore!
