Busy March!


Been so busy for the last month that I've had no time for updates!

Sam and I finished prom dress shopping! She is going to look stunning! (excuse the poor quality photo...only can do so much with a cell camera!)

It is a deep purple color, laces up the back and is simply GORGEOUS! We had so much fun shopping for it!

Sam's birthday went well! Her dad and I pitched in and bought her a new cell phone that she desperately wanted, her favorite aunts made her a pretty bracelet, my parents gave her a grab bag of stuff she's been wanting (and CASH! LOL), my sister bought her a tanning package (for prom) and her loving, adoring boyfriend bought her the most beautiful ruby necklace and a dozen roses! Young love...it's been so fun to watch! :-) Her birthday went well but I think she was disappointed in the small number of people that recognized her special day. I think her dad and I did pretty well making it the big deal that it was, but there's no erasing the sting when others forget. But she is sure enjoying being an "adult" now. LOL I miss being an 18 yr old adult!

I've been busy taking photos! My sister and I are putting together some photos that we've taken to be displayed (and hopefully sold!) in a local studio! We're very excited to have this opportunity! Here are two of my current favorites;

Ali had a busy month as well! A concert at school, fine arts night, conferences, field trip to the PAC, and I took her to see Alice in Wonderland! You have to see this movie! Worthwhile money spent, in my opinion!
April looks to be just as busy as March. I've returned to work, Sam is wrapping up her senior year, and Ali joined the grade school's version of cross country running. And of course we are looking forward to enjoying the upcoming warm spring days! Bring on the sunshine!!
Hope you all have a great spring!

Hi Sandie! Sam is going to be so so gorgeous. (she already is in just jeans) You must be so proud. Miss you all so much. I have been way busy with working full time, family and my gallery. Too much to do and no time. I keep wanting to catch up with you. I wish I could go to Ali's concert. What a great kid!
Kate is visiting this weekend. I am going to send the crib back with her to return to you. Thank you for loaning it to us. I hope I don't need to ask for it back.
Give a hug to Ali and Sam and I hope to see Jake before he turns 21! (YIKES!) Love janell

One more note: if you ever want to come out and shoot some film - and get your hands in the darkroom let me know. Seems like you are really into photography- isn't it fabulous?!! I hope you are successful at the gallery show.
