Dressed up like eskimos!

Well..it's about 27 degrees out right now and this is about the time that I start questioning why I live in Chicago..lol!
Yesterday it was about 65, then winter hit! And I guess it's supposed to really snow tonight which will be beautiful:)
I have had a very productive week this week with my best thing being that I got my cast off!!! Yeah! I'm really excited to be able to see my leg again!! lol!
I still have to be on crutches for 4 more weeks but I'm ok with that!
Now that I finally have caught up on most of my work, I got to do a little shopping today with my friend Debbie! Although, we didn't really shop, most of the time we just tried on these crazy eskimo hats and took pictures! Now I get to sit back and read my new book, The Long Tail, and wear my new slipper/socks that I got...on BOTH FEET!!! yeah! :)
I love you all!! Enjoy the...INDOORS!!

The family slideshow!

Well I've spent the past couple days just getting caught up from last week and answering emails! It's been super fun!! lol!
I just finished the slideshow from our family reunion photoshoot! It's a fairly small one that I made for the family but thought some of you may want to watch it too:) **click here** for the slideshow!
Have a wonderful night!!!

A time for craziness and a time for rest.

Well, we just finished our family reunion last night by going out and celebrating my grandma's 70th birthday! It was great!
We had a fun time the past couple days hanging out with our cousins that we never see and my aunts and uncles! It was awesome! I just got back from the gym because we ate SO MUCH!!! LOL! My mom is from a family of four sisters so all they do is talk and we just sit back and laugh hysterically because usually no one even makes sense but at least they are speaking their mind!! hehe!
Here is a little **slideshow** of Thanksgiving day, we had dinner then went to the lake! It was gorgeous! My cousin Callie, Natalie, and I all were kinda bored while the guys were playing football so we did little photoshoots all around the park. Enjoy!
PS..I'll post pics from the BIG photoshoot hopefully tomorrow:)

Calm before the storm.

So today has been a great day of pretty much just chilling...we have been running around everywhere the past couple days getting ready for Thanksgiving! We are having Thanksgiving dinner at our house with my mom's whole family which will be a total of 25 people which is not that much thinking that our family alone counts for almost half of that with 9! LOL!
Since everyone is coming from out of state it is a little family reunion too which should be a blast! I'll post some pics if I'm able to take any! I'm recruited to take the family picture on Friday so we'll see how that goes with my crutches and a timer on the camera...HAHA!!
I love you all and am soooo incredibly thankful for you too!!!
Ps. A monumental moment happened..I actually posted on the Dear Natalie blog if any of you girls...(or guys) want to check that out!

The Oli

Ok so I guess I'm on a roll here! I did a little photoshoot for my sister Olivia yesterday and she is just so adorable! I'm a little biased but I think she is the cutest 3 year old girl ever! hehe!
I really need to shoot her more often cause she is so stinking photogenic!
She actually JUST got potty trained last week...I think she still liked the attention or something that she might have been lacking since JuliAnna came along...LOL!
She is into everything Hello Kitty and American girl dolls! So precious!
Here is her slideshow **click here**
I love you all!!

The Jules

Hey everyone!!
Now that I'm done with the wedding season I decided it was probably time to catch up with shooting my brothers and sisters!! hehe! I've gotten so busy that I haven't even taken the time to shoot them much:(
Last night I got out my camera and took some shots of my baby sister JuliAnna, who is getting soooo big BTW!! I can't believe it!
Being in a really big family has it's pluses like having a zillion different nicknames! Some of JuliAnna's are(I have NO clue how she got some of these...)- Jules, Shuzette, Shuzette Unuf, The Shooze, Shooze de booze!!
She get's so much lovin and her favorite thing to do is listen to the ringtones on the kids cellphones while she's sucking on it. LOL!
Here is a little slideshow of her **click here**
Enjoy and have a great rest of the weekend:)

Hackers?? :)

Yeah..I just got up to do something and when I got back I checked my blog and I guess my sister Natalie got inspired to speak her mind...LOL!
Um...so yeah,
I hope you all are having a great week! I haven't had any photoshoots in the past couple weeks because of my leg but I guarantee you that when this cast comes off I will be shooting my heart out:) hehe!
We have been really productive the past two days and finished editing 4 weddings!! That's a world record I think! lol!
Love you all!!!
