I Live for Little Moments on Days of Rest!

Today was a restful Sunday with adorable moments between my hubby and son. So of course I ran for the ole' camera to capture them!

First moment was a shave the boys shared.



Next moment: some jumpin' on mommy and daddy's bed.





Finally, I had to capture a quiet moment. Thought that I'd do something different with this one though. So many sunsets from my backyard have been captured in color, so I thought I try it this time in B/W. I was pretty pleased with them!

Celebrating 90 Years

Wow! 90 years old! We celebrated my aunt's 90th birthday this weekend and I had a great time watching and capturing her excitement on film! She was able to enjoy mariachis serenading her, good food, and all around love from her family. What an amazing tribute to her life! Here are a few shots from the party.

Does it wash out???

So my son was one of those kids you would see at the salon screaming his head off during a haircut. He hated haircuts!! I use to feel so bad for the girls who would cut his hair and hope that maybe the next time my son would have gotten use to it and get through a haircut fine. A friend of mine asked me one day if I has tried taking him to a "kid salon". She then told me about a place she had seen in Clovis called Cool Cuts for Kids. So the next time he needed a haircut, we tried the place and we've never been anywhere else since! The place is totally kid friendly and since his first visit my son has never cried while there. We love his hairdresser Leila and I completely trust her cutting my son's hair. Today we even tried gel that colored his hair blue just for kicks! Don't worry Grandma, it washes out!

The Eye of the Tiger - Birthday pictures part 2

So one of the problems with being the host of my son's birthday parties is I am always too busy running around, that I never get a chance to grab my camera and take pictures! Luckily, my cousin Natalie who is an avid photo enthusiast always has my back at my son's birthday parties! Here are some shots she got of the awesome work the clown and face painter we hired for the party Bow Tie the Clown and Miss Judy did for Elijah and some of his friends that attended the party. Thanks Nat!
