~Middleton's Session~

I recently booked the Middleton's for a portrait session with Tommy. Alan, Valerie have been apart of our Church Kinship for Years. Gosh, I used to babysit Emily when she was in Kindergarten. The reason they had a family session was because Emily was leaving for College that Thursday. Wow! I, of course, did the make up for Valerie and Emily ahead of time and then assisted Tommy during the shoot. We went down to Creekside in Gahanna. We love to shoot there. Here are some of our favorite pictures.

~Shadow Box~

I went to High School with a friend that works at Shadowbox now. We were in theater together. Shadowbox is a Cabara Show within the walls of one of our malls. I got a birthday ticket and Tommy and I went to see the Best of the Best show! It was amazing! There was even a skit where they incorporated Tommy b/c we were sitting in the front row. We are thinking of taking my cousins when they come into town.

~Taco Tues on a Sunday~

There are a group of Photographers up north, that Tommy has been friends wiht for a long time. This includes Andrew, who photographed our wedding. Every Tuesday they get together and hang out. Since we are never able to make it on Tuesdays they held a "Taco Tues on a Sunday" for us and other out - of -towners! We went to Chippewa, Ohio and spent the day out by the lake and of course the Lake House. Tommy and I were only one of two couples there who doesn't have kids yet. Most of the little ones were there and we played! :) Also, we cooked out and everyone brought some food. It was a good time had by all!

Jill and her family and I scheduled another photo scavenger hunt! The boys didn't play this time so it was all of us girls in the Yukon and we had a blast. We started off at Worthington's Art Show and made our way down High Street through Campus. Here are some of the pix we found on our adventure.

~Father/Daughter Trip~

Daddy and I had a "Blast" in Cleveland on our Father ~ Daughter date. We started the day with lunch at Sokolowski's. Daddy knows the owner. Mike Sokolowski is an umpire at Fantasy Camp where daddy plays baseball with the old Cleveland Indian's Players. Then we went to West Market where I bought Cheese and produce for a "Spinach and Artichoke Mac and Cheese"! Then we were off to an Indian's Game of Course. After the game we went back to Sokolowski's to have a drink and watch the FIREWORKS from across the river. It was the PERFECT day!

~Dinner Together~

I got this Waffle book at B&N for $4 last week. Tommy bought me a waffle iron, our 1st Christmas together. I know I will get a lot of good use our of this book... lone behold I made a recipe out of it, fo desert, the night I bought it. Tommy and I had time to sit down together and have a nice dinner on Monday. He made Ahi Tuna, Kung Pow Chicken and I made Chocolate Waffles! So nice.

~Sharon's Shots~

I did a NAF session with my best friend Sharon. She was such a great model for me. We had a fun time getting outfits together and matching jewelry. Our shoot was a little over a hour. We shot inside because the weather was bad and we didn't want to reschedule. I think we did well, making due. Her of some of our favorites. Enjoy!

~Birthday w/Mom&Dad~

Mommy & Daddy took Me & T out for my birthday. Also, T & I took Mommy and Daddy out for their 40th Wedding Annv. Wow! What a night! We went to Brio of course! It's one of our favorite places. They have a $2.95 (full size apps) menu. We surprised M&D by saying... "Turn around! What do you see?" See what is behind daddy? Easton played Grease outside on the big screen. We ate our food and talked and laughed and got to watch one of the best movies ever made. We all sang along and had a blast. After a dinners worth of apps we had the desert sampler! Yummy! We gave M&D an invite for a bread making class for their 40th and I got a Lucky Brand graphic tee! We also ran into Amber!!! It was great to see her again. I just photogrpahed her family of 4 not to long ago but my mom and dad had not seen her in years. Amber and I grew up toghether. What a great night!
