Presents

I think I said I would try and get some pictures of the awesome Christmas/birthday presents I got this year so here we go.

Katie, for some reason, thought that I needed a new purse. I did need/want a new purse but I don't remember ever telling her that. I have a BIG black purse that I have been using for quite some time as a purse/diaper bag so I wanted to get a new smaller purse. Katie told John what she wanted to get me and actually did a pretty good job at keeping it a secret. John took her shopping and they couldn't find a "big pink purse" just like my black one, which is what Katie thought I needed. They did find a "big red purse/laptop bag" after searching a couple different stores. I didn't take a picture of my "big red purse" yet, but I did take a picture of the pink purse that John got me for Christmas that he must have found on his own.

I LOVE my new pink purse! It is just the right size, and has a long strap, and it's super soft. John did a great job! Having said that, I really love Katie's new purse that she got for Christmas from her cousin Shawn.

Katie's purse is much smaller but it's sparkle zebra striped, with a hot pink handle! I mean how cool is that? Who wouldn't want this purse. It's a little small for me, but I could probably get away with using it as a clutch.

Two Girls, Two Cameras, & 365 Days

My friend Tamer and I have started a 365 project, where you take a picture a day for a year. If you want to check them out we will be posting our daily pictures at: http://ayearthroughourlenses.blogspot.com/

Madison

I was playing around with a picture I took of Madison last summer in photo shop and thought I'd post it. I was trying a black and white conversion that I learned on the Photovision DVD, not sure if I like it or not.

New Wardrobe

Katie got practically a whole new wardrobe from her cousin Shawn for Christmas! It's the cutest Gymboree stuff. Here is a picture of her modeling one outfit the day after Christmas. Katie and I went shopping and Charlotte stayed home with Daddy. Of course the first store we went to Katie fell and ripped a whole in her cute leggings. We were at Target so we looked for a new pair, but they didn't have the cute polka dot ones so she wanted red ones. I talked her out of red and got a plain pink pair. Charlotte got some super cute clothes from Grandma Wright, including this butterfly outfit.

(Yes the boots are on the wrong feet.)
