here's one kell.

My sister Kelly took pics of us too in Utah. Which is no easy feat. DAve said he would never take family pictures with me again. I was getting so mad at him for all of his goofy faces. HE asked if I was this mean when I took pictures of other people. Of course not. See, I am just as stressed when I get my picture taken too. I need to listen to my own advice. RElax and let the photographer do the work. Great work Kelly. But Dave really? What's with the face? ha ha.

hey hot mama

Are you still sick? If not, will you pleeeeeaaaaase come over and help me narrow down the pictures from your photo shoot? It is killing me!!


How could I eliminate even one picture of a face like this?

hey tanner,

i know someone who thinks you are pretty great (besides your mom. smile).

What do you think Glor?

So, my sister Gloria sent me the first picture shown here to edit. It already is a great picture and I am sure she has already done some editing to it. I wanted to show you what I did with it, because this is a service that I am offering. You can send me a picture that you have taken and for $25, I will edit it in 3-4 different ways for you.
Which one do you like Glor?

Feeling overwhelmed? me too.

When your head is full of too many things swimming around and around it is time for a "brain dump." A new term that I learned at the "Love affair workshop" that I attended. Here's how it is done.

1. Write it all down, and I mean everything. Every little errand you need to do to lifetime goals that you want to accomplish. This may take hours the first time that you do it.



2. After you have pages and pages and pages...take it to the computer and type it all in.



3. Next, break it down by labeling each item as follows. a) To do Now. b) next 90 days c) within a year or d) in 3-5 years.



4. Now we are getting somewhere. You can than focus on what you need to get done first, and than plan and schedule out the rest. You should than have a brain dump every 90 days.

I really need to do this tomorrow. I'll go ahead and finally unpack and start on the laundry since I am pretty sure that will be a "To do now" item. At least my downstairs is clean since I had a baby shower at my house today for Jenn! Yeah, she is having a boy after having four girls! Although, I am seriously regretting keeping some of the leftover cake. It is one of my all time favorite desserts. Or maybe it just went higher on the list since I am dieting. ha. That will be on my "To do Now" list as well tomorrow...take it to someone else. Any takers? I will post the recipe. It really is so unbelievably good.

oh the cuteness!

My lizzie and her best buddy (and cousin) Cate. Kelly, could you just die?

Home from Utah

Here are a few of my favorites of the pictures I took of my sister Kelly and family.

This is the real McCaleb family though.


One from my brother's family shoot.

Sorry, no more time to edit guys. I need to get all of the luggage that is dumped in my living room put away before my violin student comes.

Love you, and miss you already! Thanks for a great time, great food, and many trips to see Twilight. ooooohhh I love that movie. Well, mostly just Edward. smile.
