My other passion

I admit it, I'm guilty.  While on vacation or a getaway with my family, I sometimes hold my guys hostage! 

Sometimes I get so carried away by God's beauty around me, that I loose track of time.  Even worse, I sometimes "suggest" a detour to recapture a once discovered place that is on our way.  Well maybe not on our way, but not too far off of our path.

On the way home from our New Year's beach trip (an annual and VERY anticipated tradition for the past few years), I remembered that we would be traveling past a once captured covered bridge.  This bridge although once captured, I made the mistake that I hate to admit....

I formatted my card accidentally, before transferring them to safety.  All those images were lost to me, images of my guys playing in the creek, the beauty of a time forgotten, but left to admire and bring memories and stories to life.  All right beside the road that many drive right by every day.

So I encouraged the hubby to stop again, and even thought there was no splashing in the creek (although we did have a couple of "accidental" fall ins) I focused on the beauty around me.

Of course I am guilty of capturing at least one image of my guys...

Time to play catch-up...

Things have been so crazy over the last couple of months, leaving me to feel horrible about leaving my blog unattended.

First the pumpkin patch sessions were so much fun!  Thank you again to the wonderful people at White Fall Farm in Gretna for allowing me to use their farm as the backdrop to this annual event.

Second, I launched my new fine art line Blessings.  This has been something that I have been toying with since the beginning of my love of photography.

Third, I was able to spend an afternoon with the A family at their beautiful farm.  The afternoon was spent chasing around a very active 2 year, but it was a blast!

Then there was the Princess Party by Cheeky Chic Accessories.  It was so much fun spending a couple of hours with the very beautiful princesses that attended.

Be sure to check out more from these sessions over on my facebook page.  I am getting ready to take time off for the holidays, so thank you all for a wonderful 2011.  Hoping for a fantastic 2012.

See ya in 2012!
