Yep, to dispel any rumors there might be floating out there. I am NO June Cleaver :)

I will admit to hiring a housekeeper, and even a part time nanny ;) (Hey a single girl has got to live, right??) But there is one thing that I try to do every now and again, and that is bake. I remember when I was a child, coming home from school and finding my mother in the kitchen whipping up a batch of her famous chocolate chip cookies. The smell of them, that feeling inside of 'ah, thanks mom!', and just the simple warm chocolatey goodness :) YUM.

Today was a baking day. Nothing too complex, just a perfect batch of chocolate chip cookies. YUM!

I also HAD to snap some photos of Lorynn today. I was out driving and I saw the most fantastic dandelion patch.. Now, I almost love dandelions more than I love roses.. I know, I am strange. Wild flowers, [in this case weeds] that grow in such abundance are just too irresitable to me. I love fields of any kind :)

I got some great shots, I haven't been able to sit down and really look at all of them yet. And I've got more sessions from last week that I need to process too :) Yes, my work is never done..

And EEKS.. I see I forgot to watermark these.. How terribly irresponsible of me :)

Tonight marks the beginning of Little Dreamer's Second Birthday Celebration! We've been working on some fabulous fun things that I think you will all enjoy :) Be sure to check it out!

Happy Friday! Have a fantastic weekend!

Yep, it's just regular, run-of-the-mill Utah weather :)

All the flowers and trees are trying to blossom and then it just goes and snows :)

I wonder when REAL spring will begin? Hmm.

I have, however had a great week so far, silly weather and all. I've been working like a crazy woman. Fancy Pants deadlines, templates for WHCC, Photo Sessions, preparing for Little Dreamer's Second Birthday, new goodies for the shoppe, promotions for ScrapBlog, then of course there is being a mom and sleeping, right? (who needs sleep?) 

I was working yesterday and I could hear Lorynn singing and dancing in the other room. I poked my head around from  my computer (hey, it's a big moniter) and this is what I saw:

This is the view directly from my office, and it just made me laugh so hard. She was singing and dancing up a storm, man, I love spunky five year olds! :) I was actually surprised that she hadn't lined up all her animals on the floor to watch her amazing performance..

We had a fabulous Easter. Had family visting, got to hang out with Lori :) I posted a bunch of our Easter photos on my Facebook account, then realized that I didn't blog about it.. If you want to see our Easter Soiree, you can pop on over to FB. Now with facebook, it's just another place to goof off when I should be working, right?? I will admit to being slightly addicted to FB.

And NO.. I will NOT join Twitter, you just can't make me do it!

So, this last weekend I had the cutest little girls to photograph. I think being able to play with newborns whenever I want to is just awesome :)

Here are a few of my favorites from my session yesterday with Kallie.

Oh, isn't she the sweetest? I haven't had very many girls in my studio lately, seems like it's been mostly boys, so I was DOUBLEY happy to have photographed Allison a few days before :)

Yes, I am getting my baby fix :) Gotta love that!

Well, I had the PLEASURE of meeting the fabulous Lindsay yesterday, A.K.A The Pied Piper :) She is the one of the most amazing photographers and I was so honored that she agreed to take a few photos of me and my girls.

The weather was FREEZING!! Seriously, I thought our hands were going to fall off from the cold ;) and the wind was blowing so hard, but we made it work ;) And she got the best photos!

And I don't usually post photos of myself ;) Thanks so much Lindsay, you did a fantastic job! :)

So I just got home from a fabulous trip to Vegas with my girlfriends. Man, I had forgotten how much of a wild child I can be ;) Seriously, we had more fun than should legally be allowed. We met some amazing people and some seriously funny characters (we were characters all of our own). Anyway, if you are needing to get away from those doldrums of life, I highly recommend it!! I am thinking we'll be doing a girls trip there at least twice a year. It's just too much fun to stay away :)

And I am so grateful for my friends!! I feel very blessed. I needed this trip, and they took me without hesitation.

These are my two best friends, Rebecca and Kristie. (Nikk, we'll totally catch you next time girl!)

I took the liberty of snapping a few shots of them while we were there. This was our last day there so their eyes might be a little blood shot ;) But I found the most amaizing wall, I couldn't pass it up!

Yes, aren't they gorgeous :) Life just ROCKS with best friends.

Now, that I am home, it's back to work, I've got TONZ of things to catch up on.. (like laundry, yikes!)

I am working on a new kit for the shoppe, hoping to get have it out soon :)

Happy Wednesday!
