Spring Formal 2009

Dakota on her special night.
Spring Formal 2009
She has gone to class after class with her partner, Austin Hubert, and learned several dances all to lead up to this grand night. The one night the parents can finally sit in and watch them dance.
Here is Dakota sitting patiently getting her hair all done up.
and then we're off to take photos.

The back of her hair after an hour in the chair












For those of you who always say I'm behind the camera
rather than in the photos........
Kota and I
(she's as tall as I am with those heels on)

The Grand March in.....with partner Austin Hubert
(sorry it's blurry... I was sitting a good distance away)

After all the excitement......a hot shower to remove the
10 pounds of hairspray and she crashes.........
Another night to remember..........

Babies Galore


We have had quite an influx of babies come to our home since spring has sprung...

A Carolina Chickadee has managed to nest in the small house perched on the back porch. A nest of what I believe to be Robin's have built a nest in the shed right above the lawn mower. The most unusual place we have welcomed babies to our home has been on the front porch in my spider plant that is hanging from the roof. I believe the mommy bird of this nest is either a Wren or a Sparrow??

I have managed to capture photos of the Chickadees and the mommy nesting on the front porch. She has been the most enjoyable to take photos of. Although none are actually of her, I have taken pictures of the nest from the very beginning all the way through her current four egg status. She's very skittish and bolts every time I go near her nest.

Enjoy the photos......that's why I have taken them.....they have been a joy for me to take.




These are pictures of the baby that has since taken flight.



Here are stage pictures of the nest from beginning through four eggs

A Princess's night out

Dakota got to get all dressed up again for a
special night out.

A night out on the town with her dad.



A corsage for the special young lady.

A memory to last forever!


Oh...the love!

Logan didn't go out on the town with them
but did enjoy dressing up in his finest for the
photo fun.

Will she ever date??
Her own personal mafia!

What a handsome set of men in my house!

Oops!!! Maybe we weren't suppose to show their
faces!!

Even Channon wanted to be a princess.

This is one lucky daddy!

"Hey Baby, where's my white Caddie?"

Be on the lookout!



Dakota and Channon goofing off.
