BW...I love it! Do you?

I love B&W...that's black and white for those of you who are confused.  It's so yummy & classic & simple & just plain speaks to me.  What do you prefer BW or color images?  Any whys out there?

My Baby Learns to "Wobble"...You heard me right!

The BEST days, I swear, are the unplanned days.  I keep trying to convince my hub (aka Mr. Planner) of this, but he's still not sold on it.  Anyway, I like to roll with the punches (again, not super conducive to raising kids...especially the ones in activities, but that's another story).  So one day some friends invite my fam to hang with their fam & grill...ya know...do the whole chill on the patio or deck or garage (depending on where your from) thing...ut ummm.  Well... their college kid comes home for the weekend...insert SURPRISE....she brought some friends...insert ANOTHER SURPRISE!  And our humble family bbq turned into a college dance party plus a little girl who I KNOW loves to shake her little tail feather.  Here's the result...my baby girl learned to "Wobble".   PS  I secretly downloaded this little ditty off itunes & I may secretly "wobble" when I should be working...HEY it's a pattern interrupter...you ALL should get one!   ENJOY...then, "secretly" go download it ;)

What is Honorable?

Sometimes there are stories that "hit home", make you think or make you appreciate your own life a little more.  This shoot did just that.  This is Jim and his adorable little family.  He has a wife, a little girl and a son on the way.  They are healthy, beautiful, funny as all get out and happy.  What you don't know is Jim will depart in two short days on his fourth tour of duty to a far off country to defend and protect OUR great country, OUR freedoms and OUR families as a US marine.  His service is honorable and he is appreciated more than he knows.  Thank you Jim for your service and for protecting my country, my freedom and my family.  I enjoyed catching some moments that I pray will help you feel a little closer to home as you get through this next year away from what is most precious to you.
