I gave Holly control of the camera tonight for a few minutes. She took these photos of Anna and I. LOVE, LOVE IT!

Nolan, you might remember his Sweet Cheeks session from awhile back. Well, he just turned one year old and I was lucky enough to get to hear his laughs again. I swear, he remembered me. I just know it, because he was all smiles despite missing his afternoon nap. Jill, here’s a sneak peek at his sweet cheeks again (I was seeing how many “ee” words I could fit in one sentence).






Just got done with a new album layout…I just love doing these. Brings me back to the events, and the happiness. In this particular case, it also brings me back to this Cheese Tort that the caterers at Trumpet Vine Catering made. Truly, I think that dish is on the VERY TOP of my favorite foods list. If you are thinking about your catering or looking for a “wow” dish, try out the cheese tort from these peeps. (and invite me to help you taste!)
Yesterday could have been hotter. IF WE WERE IN IRAQ! Seriously, in a record-breaking heat wave, it was about 115 degrees for Emily and Mike’s wedding. Not to worry though, we all still had a rockin’ good time. So, off to the pictures…which have a little different look to them this time. Hope you enjoy!



The day started innocently enough…with the weapons of the morning. (that in in contrast to Bush’s WMDs which we’ve heard so much about)

And then, off to the church, still all normal…
But, that’s when the lovely flowers went missing, as well as many guests. What happened? Nasty accident on the freeway delaying the one route to the ceremony for many people (and florist vans, too). When the flowers arrived they were worth the wait. My favorite star gazer lilies and their lovely fragrance filled the church.



After the ceremony, we headed to the Vets Hall for some P.A.R.T.Y. time. I’m pretty sure there were over 400 people there.

Food was awesome…bbq AND tacos together. A match made from heaven.


Emily’s dad sat down for about 10 seconds to eat something…that man was running all around. Emily is the last of his kids to get married, and I personally think he was staying busy so that he wouldn’t get emotional. =)


And the the fun bumped up a notch again. Pinatas, beer pong, dancing, and Mike rocked the microphone for Baby Got Back like you’ve never heard before!

Emily was the meat in a friendship sandwich.




And finally, a special picture for the best man Ian and his new wife, who thought engagement photos were lame…UNTIL they saw mine! With that kind of compliment, I gotta leave them with a taste of disimone photos too.

I rarely stop to blog about something technology related, but I’m making an exception this time. I truly believe this product is worth shouting about. If you already use Firefox to browse the internet, then you can skip this message. If you aren’t using Firefox, we need to fix that.
What is Firefox? Firefox is a FREE internet browsing application. It is like Internet Explorer or Safari…only much better. Firefox is different in that it is shareware based, and regularly updated by people all over the world. The inherent nature of constant testing in a shareware environment also makes the program a more secure internet browser and less open to attack viruses and bad bots. Plus, the browser is more robust at showing web pages as they were truly designed. I’ll give you an example from my own blog…
If you view my blog using Internet Explorer, the fonts will look slightly different and the comment box will be slightly larger (especially evident in posts that only have one comment). That’s not how I really designed the page. If you look at my blog in Firefox, the fonts are cleaner and the comment box is only as big as the comments need it to be, no extra gray space.
So, if you really want to make your website reading more enjoyable and secure, do yourself a favor and download Firefox. It is free and works on either Mac or PC computers. (If you are into internet even more technically, you can also download the Firefox add-on tools FireFTP and FireBug which allow you to do FTP work and HTML, CSS, script work on the fly, respectively. But, that’s probably too geeky for most people…LOL.) I’ve been using it for over 2 years and just love it!
You can get the free Firefox download by going to www.mozilla.com or clicking HERE. The folks at Mozilla give really simple instructions on how to get rolling with Firefox. Promise, you’ll be happy you upgraded.
