I had the privilege of taking the Ray Family photos at the Dallas Arboretum on Saturday afternoon. It was one of the most beautiful weather days we’ve had in a while… Fall was truly rolling in… and so was an un-planned rainy afternoon. Kelsey, my friend / assistant for the afternoon and I arrived at [...]

Here is a slide show of the photos I shot of the family while at our annual family reunion in Galveston at the beginning of July. The weather was actually surprisingly nice. It was cooler in Galveston than it was in Dallas. Strange! Brian and I were there for about 2-3 days, while everyone else [...]

Mother Theresa has shared so much wisdom and has been one of the most quoted individuals in the world. I was cleaning/deleting a lot of documents from my computer today and came across this quote I saved a while back. It’s just too good not to share. What shes says is so true. It is [...]

I’ve been so crazy busy at work during the day (I even forget to eat lunch- that’s just crazy) and I usually have several chores and errands to run afterwork, that I’m looking forward to a pretty laid back weekend.

I built this hardbound book of all our photos since we started dating a year and a half ago (Aug. 2007- now (Dec. 08)) for Brian as one of his Christmas presents. The book came out nicely, and I like how you can share it online and build it online, not on [...]

I’ve ordered items from JCPenney before and the box arrived in OK shape. I’m sure this isn’t necessarily JCPenney’s fault, but they could have done a better job packaging the innerds of the shipped box.

We’ve all gotten gift cards for a birthday or holiday gift…. well I apparently have a bank of them. I get so excited whenever I receive a gift card and then put it in my special envelope (bank) of gift cards so I won’t forget where I put it. Funny thing is I DO forget [...]
