Matlida Jane Trunk Show

Our Matilda Jane trunk show yesterday was a great success! We all looooved the clothes and a good time was had by all. (especially Cal, who insisting on wearing one of the very girly dresses….which made his daddy cringe just a bit.) Congrats to our raffle winners….Christy Fields- $150 gift certificate towards your next session, Malissa Henrie- 11×14 portrait, and Kristy Childress- 8×10 portrait. Yea! I’ll be sending your certificates soon.

For those unable to come yesterday, I’d be happy to send you a catalog. Just let me know!

Snow? Are you kidding me?

But this is Texas, and you never know…..

2 days ago our sweet friends from way-back-when came in for their family portraits….and we went outside the studio to celebrate the snowy scene.

Then, yesterday, it was in the 70′s and so beautiful that Ava and I played around with the new Matilda Jane clothes we got for the trunk show…

And as for today……well, they say 4-5 inches of snow! Craziness.

Ava’s Valentine

While we were at Target yesterday, I finally convinced Ava that she really did not want that Brat or Disney princess valentine card box, but rather a Valentine card with her own picture. Score! Could not just eat up my little ballerina Valentine??




Who knew?

…that the child of 2 people made for the water and the tropics could consider her first day skiing the “bestest” day of her life? Our trip to Jackson Hole last week with friends was wonderful in every way (well except getting there, but that’s another story). But the best was to see the joy in our 4 year old’s beet-red, frozen, snow covered face while skiing and sledding. Who are you anyway?


Other than the sunny first day, it didn’t stop dumping snow the entire trip. Great for skiing, not so great for snapping anything other than pics with the pocket camera!


And this is what her brother had to say about the high of 10 degrees and a foot of snow a day…

Fall Fun

OK, well I did get a chance to sneak out to the Arboretum this week with my kids and Ava’s little friend from preschool. We had the place to ourself it seemed….the end of a dark wet day. A little mud in the pumpkin patch never hurt anyone! And I couldn’t resist my little beauty in this sweater on the first “chilly” morning of fall.
