 This little girl is one of the most easy-going kiddos around!  She is such a happy baby!

shoot, shoot, shoot

Shooting is exactly what the students at  Lincoln Street Music Studio Summer Camp will be doing in July. They will be holding a fantastic summer camp for kids and I'll be teaching the digital photography!  I'm very excited to be able to work with the staff at Lincoln Street Music Studio and all the kids.  The digital photography camp will have kids taking lots of pictures with their own point and shoot cameras and learning about different ways to look at everyday objects.  We'll also be using our cameras to make our photos of family and friends look great!  I can hardly wait to see all the great photos the kids take.  Go sign your child up for camp at Lincoln Street Music Studio!  See you there!


You don't have to have a big 'ole camera for good photos.  Knowing how to use different angles for pictures can make an okay picture look so much better.  Here are a few from my little 'ole camera.  

kate & will

Pink.  Dresses.  Headbands.  Ruffles.  All things that don't even exist in my house...and weren't around in Will's house until just a couple months ago.  Will got a new sister!  Kate came around and turned his world of trucks upside down.  There's even a little bit of pink now for Will--do you see the matching tie and headband?  Now THAT is impressive! 
I loved meeting Kate and had fun playing Where's the Easter Bunny with Will.  What a beautiful family! 

the beach

Ahh...flip flops... I've been waiting all winter to be able to wear them again. Our family piled in the family roadster and drove (yes, drove!) from Ankeny, Iowa to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for Spring Break. We made it after 84 (or so) movies in the dvd player. It was worth it. My sister and her kids drove there from North Carolina to meet us and I have never heard so much giggling from the cousins. What a great way to spend Spring Break - at the beach with family.

nora

What a sweetie. Nora is about eight weeks old and is just as sweet as can be--I'm sure she got it from her parents! She's just starting to smile and it can just make you melt. She definitely has her parents wrapped around her finger!
