Vote for Sophie

My friend Heather is trying to win a contest for her dog Sophie. If she wins they get $10,000 towards their favorite animal cause charity, and Sophie gets to be on the cover of a Bissell vacuum cleaner box. I took Heather and Sophies pictures back at the end of the year, when I did Heathers senior pictures from A&M. Please help support the cause and vote for Sophie, shes a cutie anyway! Look how sweet she is!

The Audubon Zoo

Lask weekend we also went to the Audubon zoo back home in New Orleans. I grew up going to this zoo, so I have a special place in my heart for it. Lots of things have changed over the years here. When we were little we used to ride the elephant and camel, I don't think they can do that anymore, so they've added a little play area with a carousel and games. Here are a few pictures from the day.

The Millets

Last satuday I had a Mini-session with the Millet family. It was kinda rainy of and on that day so we had to dodge the rain while taking pictures. I took their pictures once before when Molly was a tiny baby. It was so nice to see her so big now. Shes actually turning two this wknd. My oh my. Here are a few pictures from their session. These were their Easter pictures for this year.

Jewelry making

For my sisters birthday on the 22nd of feb, I wanted to make her a special homemade gift. I haven't really tackled the sewing machine yet (im still scared of it), so I decided to try my hand at jewelry making. I've played with beads when I was little, so I figured it wouldn't be too hard. It was acutally pretty fun and I finished it within one HGTV show. lol. I am not saying that I am REALLY good at it and I dont plan on selling it! (really, im not very good) But I just wanted to show everyone my nice attempt and how it came out.  Kelly really enjoyed it as well as the girls (emma & sadie). Here's a pic of it before I gave it to her.
