Keep it simple...

I am one of those that tends to over think everything. This time, I am proud to say that I decided to keep things simple. I was asked to do thank you cards for a dentist and police officer that donated toothbrushes/visited my son's preschool. The cards had to be large so all the kids could sign it. Not CTMH, but they were rather simple and look perfect for a preschool thank you.

Same Blue Pullover

I'll have to admit that I am one of those that doesn't agree when everyone comments on how much the boys look alike. But here is a shot of both boys in this blue pulloever that for some reason I love...and I'd have to agree that they do look a awful lot alike in it. ;)

Here is Conner in the pullover in September 2005 at just 14 months old. This is one of my favorite pictures of all time of him.

And here is my darlin' Blake just a couple weeks ago at 17 months old. Check out those Easter eggs in his pocket! He was a pro with the easter egg hunting ;)

This is one of those shots that could be anyone's child, but it is undeniably all Blake. Given the chance he can find every mud puddle in existence. I love this shot!

Lovin' It

It is late and I am getting ready to head to bed, but I wanted to share something before I do. It was a great night and one of the reasons I do what I do. I spent the night with two wonderful friends scrapbooking at my open crop. Alicia and Marcy made me smile, laugh and simply enjoy our creative time. Thank you ladies for coming this evening! It was truly a pleasure ;)
