Snow? In Southern California?
January 7, 2011
My childhood was spent making snow angels, throwing snowballs and creating the biggest snowman ever. I remember school being cancelled because of the snow, and being stuck in our house because we were snowed in (which is how my Dad kicked the smoking habit…he couldn’t get out to buy a pack of cigarettes!) So imagine my skepticism when my neighbor told me it was snowing outside. I called it sleet.
But about 20 minutes later, she was right. It was snowing. Here, in Valencia where it’s easily a scalding 110 degrees in the summer, it was snowing. I’ve been told the last time it snowed was 22 years ago.
It snowed much more overnight and actually stuck to the ground. But not enough to make a fort.
Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner!

Over My Head
July 20, 2010
This week’s I Heart Faces photo challenge is: Over My Head. Or at least over little Jessica’s head.
She loves playing with bubbles, and while on vacation in Las Vegas, instead of braving the 110 degree weather, we decided to blow bubbles inside. Who can blame us? Yes, she splashed in the pool. Yes, she saw the bright lights the Las Vegas Strip has to offer. But this little girl was having the time of her life just by simply chasing bubbles inside the hotel room. 
Head on over to the I Heat Faces Web site to see more fabulous “Over My Head” photos, or click on the button below.
Congrats to the Mother’s Day Contest photo winner, Jennie Carey! Her photo won the heart of my guest judge (thanks, Mom!) and also won the deliciously beautiful Bird Sanctuary Cookie Box from Elenis.
Now Where’s That Baby Book?
April 11, 2010
Being a photographer, I’d say it’s a given that I will document my kids’ life with photos. I’ve captured many firsts in their lives with my camera, such as their first gummy smile, their first time eating baby food and their first bath. But recording the actual moment in their baby book is somewhat of a challenge for me.
We took my youngest to get his first haircut a couple of days ago, and yup, I documented it thoroughly. Now if I could only find the time to write it down in his baby book…
