A break in the action…

Sweet Tyra emailed me last week to let me know that Yo, I need to put my name in the hat for the Matilda Jane photography competition…And so, like anyone else who would LOVE to have a Matilda Jane dress to play with I said OH HELLZ YES.

And today Tyra emailed to let me know that I’m in! I’m in!

I can’t WAIT. I requested Coco’s size, because she’s the most cooperative model in the house (even if she IS in fourteen different directions at once).

These are from yesterday…Workin’ it in her new poncho.

Thank you, Matilda Jane! My wheels are already spinning with ideas!

It’s my favorite time of year!!!

The emails have been POURING in (I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!) asking “WHEN are the mini sessions starting? Have I missed them?”. After last year’s shorter holiday season than usual (for the very best reason of all, of course), THIS year we are doing these back-to-back AND possibly adding a 3rd day. We are halfway booked already (I KNOW!). I hated turning families away last year, and just feel so blessed and honored that those who had to pass on their annual dose of Sugar have waited patiently and are ready to jump back on the bandwagon with us. How lucky am I?

So join us for some crazy, silly, fun and wild holiday card fun!

I owe you guys pictures…

lots and lots of pictures.

The adoption session from Thursday night. The mini sessions from Friday. And the big family session from Friday too.

But yeah…I was bad this weekend. I hung out with the kids, cheered at my son’s first soccer game, saw some friends, and had a late dinner in Fort Worth with a few of my favorite girls.  Today it was the pumpkin patch, the building of train tracks and practicing of cartwheels, and a picnic table dinner in the backyard.

Tonight?  I’m on pins and needles waiting for The Call that I need to hightail it to Fort Worth.

And in case it does come tonight…I’m gonna need some sleep. So forgive me, sweet families…but you’ll see them in another day or two.  They are awesome, and they will be worth the wait!

Canvas explosion…

Today was like Christmas, and I wanted to share the joy as we  unpacked box after box of gorgeous canvases.

First up, a series of three 16×16 metallic canvases-they took my breath away, and now I can’t stop thinking of what I can do in my kids’ rooms and the playroom with these (my husband is probably not going to buy the whole ‘business expense’ excuse for long).  I think I need 9 over the couch in our viewing room too…

Dylan’s mom came by to pick these up and emailed a few hours later, letting me know that upon finding these already hung in her room, Dylan (and I love this description) “very rarely shows us approval or glee and we got a big glimpse of it today!  She jumped and squealed and hugged me.  All should have been for you!“.

I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for that :)

Today’s shipment also contained this 16×30 that I *heart*.  I have a series of five 15×30′s in my entryway of our little family, but I love how long and narrow this size is.  Must have one.

(I still can’t get over her eyes)

I’ve been waiting to show this one off until we had a few others to pair with it, so today’s the day!  A gorgeous 24×30 that many of you have seen as you’ve come in for ordering sessions or to pick up your prints.  Such a cote, happy family!
