Jenna - LOVE THE NEW WALL! So glad to see you are back to blogging. Your blog posts make my day!

happy new year friends!

twenty ten is here!  wow.  where did the year go?   although i do not like how time seems to be passing too quickly .. i do love the start of a new year.  i love looking back on what has happened in one short year and also looking forward to what the next years may hold.    its seems like a tradition of mine to tear down the christmas decorations and begin organizing and cleaning every inch of my house, the closets, the fridge, the drawers, the piles of photos with no home.        decluttering both my house and my head i guess.   my list is way too long to tackle but i am trying.    im working on a fun 2009 video of all my amazing sessions which i am having so much fun with …   working on the studio.    the holidays get so hectic for me that this time off is refreshing and rejuvenating for me.    here are some recent pics from my house …

chase is starting to walk  and finally has teeth ( and oh i just want him to stay a baby !  Im just taking it all in right now before he starts running around)    jake is just growing up and really becoming a little man.  he pretty much thinks he runs the house ( maybe he does) .   jayden is learning to knit from miss susie.   she caught on so quick that we were all surprised.  I can not knit nor can i help her when she gets stuck.   she said ” if you cant help me then how am i ever going to finish this?”  ha!    luckily rich just gets that kind of stuff without even learning so he can help too.    santa brought her some yarn and some supplies and she is making her first scarf.    isn’t it gorgeous?    she is now trying to teach me.  its not going well. :(   i am trying to learn at little so at least I can help out.   i told her im better at picking out the yarn colors.. thats my part :)

a new business piece
