Valentines Day 2011

Hmmm......blogging....I do miss/not miss it. I miss all your blogs. I've been so sad to not check them these past 5 months or so and see what's going on in the lives of those I love but never get to see! But life just got too busy and something had to go! This month was the first time in the past 7 months that I haven't traveled during the month, plus my little side photography hobby turned into more then I had imagined or even intended it to be! It's a constant goal of mine to spend less time on the computer, but....my mom texted me and asked me to update my blog and I figured if my mom can figure out how to text, I can blog! At least once a month maybe....

Another goal of mine is to be better about celebrating holidays with my kids, so here is our belated happy valentines day post to you!
These next two are great representations of Miss A's little tomboy sassy personality. She's a little nut. An endearing and crazy little nut.

My girls! The first time I've taken them to try and get pictures together and I don't think I will try ever again! Miss T is like the sweetest happiest little girl ever....but this brought out the devil in her. It's probably the first time I've felt mad at her, so I decided candids will be it for her for the next few years bc it's not worth feeling mad at this little tator tot!

I know...her hair is awful...it can't be fixed...she chopped it off just to make sure she looked even trashier a few weeks ago.

I used this picture below for a 52 week photo project I'm doing with a bunch of really amazing photographers. We post every Friday so if you want to check it out, link over to my photo blog here! This particular one was for the week "love".

And lastly, around Valentine's day last year I saw these adorable cookie cutters where you could imprint sayings like the classic valentine's hearts. I ordered them right away, but it took until August to get them bc they were so back ordered. So I had a year's worth of anticipation for making these cookies. And holy heck, they were way too much work! 4 separate from scratch batches for the different colors and I had to use a plastic play rolling pin from my girls kitchen to roll all of it out because I don't own one! But they are stinking cute right?? Definitely a once a year and no more type of deal. Just like my blog posting :)
