you see mr s see’s me every year twice, for his family session and then a few months later for his birthday session.  This was year three.  I have told you before that he has never really been all that amused with me, well bum bum bum ….until TODAY!  While it could totally be my no makeup wearin’, tennis shoes and camera a la tourist look, i’ll bet it has a little more to do with the fact that he remembers how much fun we have EVERY TIME!  In three years we have been all over this stinkin town and today was no exception.  we walked some streets, were allowed backstage during a crazy concert, made friends with a police officer or two and rode a carousel….whew!  good thing we all had caffeine…so thankful and grateful yall have invited me in your lives year after year.  thank you!

valentine’s day!  got the girls valentine’s day cards in today and loved them so much i started a little assembly line to put them together and am all done!  and don’t judge (yeah you) my mom works in teeth people so if i give candy i have to give a toothbrush, lol!  seriously my birthday party pinatas had toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss and those little red  stain tablets… i know my mom is slightly crazy ( hey have you met me?!) sorry for the blah product shots i spent so much time making them i only about 10 minutes before the girls were set to wake up.

 

ETA: bc i have had a lot of emails…this is a 4×5 press printed card that i folded in half.  then added the bag with candy (the bag was a 4×6 bag from michael’s craftstore), stapled and viola!
