My Spidey Pea

Halloween was alot of fun this year. We took Blake to the mall. He had a blast. He loved saying Trick or treat, and following the crowd around the circle. It went super fast. About an hour later, his bucket was half full. They were three more wings to go, but he had more than enough candy. (Yes I am one of those moms that doesn't allow their kiddos to pig out on candy, not even on Halloween)

Blake chose his own costume this year. I so wanted him to be one of the ninja turtles but he didn't agree. So Spiderman again, but he does make a handsome little spidey, and we already had that bucket from 08.

Bryson was a little pea in a pod this year. Which totally fits him. He is so much like Blake was at this age, its ridiculous. Looks like I got my cookie cutter kiddos like I hoped for.




















I can't wait to scrap these holiday photos. I love them both.

Take Care and Be Safe.

.......this baby. Canon 60D. Its taken me sooooo long to decide what to get. Nikon or Canon, canon or Nikon, then it was which model. The rebel or D7000. Ultimately, we bought this Canon bc of the 18 MP, wireless remote and pivotal screen. I've had a Canon Powershot A series for over 5 years. It's been dropped at least 50 times, and takes Blake's abused pretty well, plus it survived a year in the horrid sand of Iraq. I can't wait to get started. Now all I need is Canon 60D for Dummies.

Pumpkins

October was a busy month. They were a couple of things we couldn't find the time to squeeze in like the Tanya Tucker concert or the local fair. We did find time to visited the Pumpkin Farm. I love those places. I love the colors of fall. Burnt oranges, gold, plums, reds, and greens... Beautiful!


Awake, Dressed and Ready!

Seeking Help



After a recent portrait session, which lasted over an hour and resulted in ok photos, I came to this conclusion. "Professional portraits" are so expensive, why spend that kind of money year after year. So I think its time I go ahead and buy a nice camera. I've thought about it for years, yet always chose to spend big money like on someone else. Now as I see Blake growing before my eyes, I'm desperate to hold on to that last bit of baby in him. Annnd of course get thousands of totally precious little toothless adorable photos of Bry. Now that leads me to problem one. I'm not sure which one is the best choice. Canon or Nikon. I've never owned a Nikon and know nothing about them. I've narrowed it down to these two. Any reviews, opinions or advice for me.




Nikon D7000





Canon Rebel T2i
