Last but not least

Mimi was feeling left out and the other kids thought she needed some valentines too. So, one photo shoot, one trip to costco and 3 hours later Mimi has her own valentines.

Happy Valentines Day

3 Gigabytes

What could be bad about having a 3 Gig memory card for your camera you ask?
Having to process 633 photos.
Pictures like:

The incredible escaping baby

Imogene and Gypsy

MiMi queen of flour messes

One of the better pictures from a very cold day

Xander  (one of the best pictures of him that day)

And 628 others including 246 of baby lexi.

I feel so free now I have a blank memory card and a goal to take more pictures in the coming year.  I'd like to try for a picture a day, but I may have to do make-up days because I am already behind. I'm not going to stress about it- I just want to improve my portraits and photographs and more practice means better pictures.

Other pictures from the memory card will be making appearances in later/earlier posts, so stay tuned.

Completed Projects

I finished some stitching last night! MiMi's stocking is finished and now needs to be sewn into a stocking shape.

I realized I had forgotten the beads and charms when I was taking this picture so I quickly sewed them on and it is ready to finish off.

Now I can start on the dishtowels that I have been saving for over a year, and the new ones I got for christmas. To practice I stitched up a couple of hankerchiefs.

I used Designs I found on Bad Bird
