They are all so beautiful! The girl is gorgeous!

I watched some of this season of American Idol early on, then missed a bunch, then watched again last night. I really love Phillip Phillips! Skylar Laine is also amazing! I hope they’re the final two!

Yvonne - April 20, 2012 - 8:42 am

Thanks Shawtae! I love Phillip Phillips and Skylar Laine too. I was really sad to see Colton go though! I’m thinking at this point we’ll be seeing more of all of them. :)

I heart faces | hugs & kisses

This weeks theme for I Heart Faces photo challenge is “hugs & kisses.” Perfect for the month of February right!

Love, Hugs and Happy Days to all!

Thanks all! You rock! I really appreciate your kind words!

The Oh So FAB “E” Family

They wanted family photos in their new coats. I can’t say I blame them! Such fun, bright colors and so dang Ca-Ute!:)They totally match their personalities…fun, cute and happy!





This one totally makes me smile…love that they jump right in and play without persuading on my part!:)And considering that it was Miss K’s birthday…it’s kinda perfect that she’s the one that jumped into the middle! Happy Birthday Cute Girl!

 

Happy 2012! Wow, it seriously doesn’t feel like that long ago when the world was worried about the millennium and my grandma was sure the world would end, and here we are twelve years later! My baby was only five and now he’s seventeen, almost eighteen! Hug those little ones, take lots of photos, say the heck with the dishes, have fun, sing out loud and act silly! It goes much to fast!:)

Here’s to wishing you many good things in 2012!

And here’s to thanking the “E” family for coming out to play and being brave and letting me take their photos on a January day!:)

Hugs and Happy Days! Love you all ~Y

Cindy Steel - January 5, 2012 - 5:59 pm

Oh my HECK! WHat a beautiful session! I absolutely LOVED all the colors and the coats! So fun! Great job capturing them so perfectly!

Danelle - January 7, 2012 - 8:38 pm

Love these! Especially the colorful coats! Don’t you love it when people dress cute for their pictures? :)

Rhonda Steed - January 16, 2012 - 11:40 pm

seriously cute!!! Love their coats and Love that they thought to use them!!

Shawntae - January 18, 2012 - 11:45 am

Lately I’ve been saying the heck with dishes a lot! lol

These are all such beautiful images. I love their coats!
The shots with the mountains make me swoon. I was just telling my boyfriend the other day how much better our area would be with some gorgeous mountains in the background.:) But since they won’t come to us, I suppose one day I need to go visit some.

Yvonne - February 1, 2012 - 5:17 pm

Thanks all!! You rock!

Shawntae, you should definitely come visit the mountains! As far as dishes, I kinda figure, life can’t wait, but dishes can! :) I’d much rather clear things a bit, spend the evening with my family and friends and then do dishes. :)
