I have a new blog for my photography projects. I am not quite ready to have a website yet, so I thought I would start a blog. It is not half as cool as Monica's awesome photography. I hope to be as good as she is when I grow up.

Sushi Night!!!

Sam had to do a project at school that included

making sushi for his class. So we kind of made

a family night out of it. Even Liz had fun making

the Sushi. Though she did not have any. We made

it kind of simple for the kids at school. I figured

that most kids wouldn't try it if it had any raw

stuff in it so we stuck to California rolls and

shrimp rolls. I think we even mastered sushi

rice. It took 2 tries. We burned the first

batch. But that is ok. It turned out awesome at

the end. This was our first time making sushi.

We all had a blast making it!!!!

Marissa Joyner

Here are some cute pictures I did for
another friend Tiffany for her
daughter's one year old birthday.
Marissa is such a cutie. We had lots of
fun. I got to experiment with a white
back drop. I learned that I need to iron
it next time. It was really fun to work with.

Here is a collage I made for a friend of mine.

I had it on earlier, then took it off, because

I didn't want my boss to see it. But then I

ended up showing him anyways. So I thought

I would put it back on. I just love babies!!!

Jake's Suprise Party!!

Richard, Frank, Dave
Stephanie & Betty

This year I surprised Jake for his

birthday with a party with

all his Cowboy friends. I am just sad that

once the party got under way I forgot

to take more pictures. I have to thank

Dean and Stephanie for all the help with

the planning. Dean lured Jake away while

we could put everything together. He

was sure suprised. I was very proud

that I was able to pull the whole thing

off. And keep a secret for so long. You

know this is a big feat for me. I held this

secret for almost a month. I know, very

impressive!!! We had lots of fun. It

was great getting to know the gang outside

of the cowboy arena!!!!
