For some reason, it has been one of those days. This song has been going over and over in my head to boot!
Here is a quick sneak from a recent family session…..

Custom Heirloom Art

Our AMAZINGLY talented mom is always up to something new, and recently, she’s perfected an artistic process that enables her to transform any photo into a canvassed painting. The results are stunning, the finished product just glows. Check out these before and afters:
You can learn more about this custom heirloom art here…what do you think?

I Almost Forgot

I’m a lucky girl! And darn if I didn’t almost forget to tell you all about it!
Back in April, Kristen of Gock’s Frocks held a giveaway for this GORGEOUS rug on her blog, and I won it! It is soft, luxurious, looks perfect here on my landing, and goes beautifully with the projects I have planned for this room…if I ever get to them! Ha!
Anyway, jump on over to her blog and etsy store…she makes gorgeous things for little girls.
Gratefully,
Audrey
PackSaddle Lake

We went for a ride in the mountains a few weeks ago with some friends to PackSaddle Lake . It was a beautiful drive, with amazing views of the valley and also of the Grand Tetons (I am not sure why I didn’t stop for a picture of them). It is a fun place to spend the afternoon!!

So, she is not really a new bride…she has actually been married for a few years now! Krista and I have wanted to take pictures of her in her wedding dress for quite some time now, and we finally managed to get it done. We didn’t do any extreme trashing of the dress, but we did have a great time and managed to get it pretty dirty! Here are a few of my favorite pictures from this session:
More from my decor overhaul this past weekend…my little red ladder needed a little something up top, and the sign needed to be in a better place: now it’s out in the open to remind me more effectively!

My Youngest Assistant

I love my assistants! They are always fun to work with. I took Miss K with me on my last photo shoot. We had a great time. She would show Krista how to pose for pictures (I am not sure why I didn’t get a picture of her doing this). She was awesome, but she did have a bit of a hard time not getting all of the camera attention. She was able to ride Red (the horse) when we got done. And as for the dress she is wearing, she thought she should be in her beautiful dress along with Krista {wink}.
Thanks Miss K for helping me out–can’t wait to do it again!

I’m supposed to be dusting/vacuuming/folding laundry right now, but I’m not.
I cleaned out my storage room this week: you know, the pit into which I threw everything I didn’t know or want to deal with for the past year or so (since the last time I cleaned that place out). And though my storage room looks wonderful for the moment, my family room is full of piles that are driving me crazy! So instead of doing chores, I’m playing around with finding homes for all the home decor items I’ve been storing. I’m thinking if they don’t have a home, they need to leave mine! Down with piles!
I spent a little time browsing the archives of one of my favorite decorating blogs for inspiration and decided to try this idea with what I had on hand: a big ole frame that came out of my sewing space when I re-worked it. It’s a little unconventional, and I’m almost 100% sure my hubby will complain about it when he wants to open the windows tonight, but for now…I like it! What do you think?
Going back to work!

Sneak Peak of Bride

Had a GREAT time taking pictures tonight…. and I wanted to quickly put on a sneak peak.

Oops! I disappeared there for about a week…that went fast! Here’s what I’ve been up to: helping my hubby finish a major remodel on a camp trailer to take on our annual family-reunion-camp-out. It was a race to get everything ready in time. We spent a lot of late nights at my father-in-law’s shop, cutting, caulking, welding, stapling. We had a bunch of picnic suppers, and the kids enjoyed zipping around on bikes, climbing on everything and watching movies while we worked.
Somehow, we made it to the finish line and took them camping for five days. It was so fun to relax in our new space, have fun with cousins, and eat lots of yummy food.
Still catching up on laundry,
Audrey
