Creating My Life One Day at A Time
Here is a close-up of the bracelet I made for Kaymn’s special day. I love how it turned out–it’s a tradition for me, as I made one for her big sister’s blessing four years ago. One Small Child carries a selection of similar personalized bracelets.
(P.S. I’ve purchased a few stretchy bracelets for Kaymn and have lost two so far. This bracelet with the clasp will NOT slide off! Just a little advice from ME!) …….Kayla
Come party with us at my house this Thursday evening, from 7 to 9 pm–everyone’s invited! My friend Amy will be here with a HA-UGE selection of her adorable Trendy Tickers watches, and there just may be additional selections of sewn and wood/vinyl items handcrafted by my darling sister-in-law and myself. It’s a good excuse to get out of the house and come hang with the girls.
Hope to see you!

I guess its time I get a picture of Kaymn’s blessing dress on here since the sneak peak was last week. Here is a full shot of her beautiful gown.
My Mom, Audrey and I took Kaymn out on Grandpa’s farm for some fun pictures. Here are a few to share for now.
Oh, by the way….I am now offering FREE MINI SESSIONS when you purchase a gown from One Small Child for your little one. Contact me at Kayla (at) SageMeadowPhoto (dot) com.

I took the kiddos and myself to my friend for some hair-trim-ups today, and had an unexpected life-changing experience. It’s been two years since we chopped Miss J’s hair to donate to Locks of Love, and her hair has grown quite long, so we checked to see if she had enough length to donate again. Sure enough, she did. But her haircut ended up being a bit shorter than she wanted. I could see her trying to be brave and holding herself together in that chair, so I said, “Why don’t we see if mine is long enough to do it too?” And it was! So we both ended up with some super-short dos. All together, we got 6 ponytails to send off. Woot!
Afterwards, we wrangled Kayla into shooting some photos of our new looks, and she didn’t disappoint:
Feeling like a new woman,

I have been designing baby announcements since baby Kay was born. Here is one that I put together yesterday.
When you book your Newborn session with me, I have galleries of baby announcemets to pick from for your baby!

Here is a quick sneak peak of Kaymn’s blessing dress from One Small Child (it isn’t on their site yet, but will be soon!). I haven’t got her pictures taken in the dress yet, therefore I cannot show you what the whole dress looks like. I figured I would let your minds imagine it for now. All I can say is she looked like a princess yesterday!
A quiet afternoon at the lake with cousins, snacks, sand, sun, swimming…perfect.
Wishing you all the same,
Audrey
YAY……I finally got some packages together and ready to share! (Click the image to see a larger version, then click again if it’s still too small to read)
Also, remember that I am offering a SPECIAL $75 creative session fee for all appointments booked and photographed by July 31st, 2009.
More on my continuing quest to re-purpose long pants for summer: these little crops can’t be more simple: take a pair of too-short jeans (can you tell we’re a jeans family?), fold and stitch the cuffs in place. To dress them up, add a pretty fabric flower pin–this little idea makes my head spin with all the possibilities…you can have custom-looking pants, skirts, whatever for any occasion using anything you want!
Dizzy-lizzy love,
Audrey
