Greyson Overman (my gorgeous nephew)

Last night I took pictures of my beautiful nephew Greyson. He is turning 1 in October and Kristin wanted to get some pictures of him. Im not by any means great at this but I figured I would give it a try and after messing around with light room and getting a 10 minute tutorial from Tamara (thank goodness for screen sharing) I think they turned out well. I took a photoshop class in high school which came in handy for little things but with his good looks Greyson is handsome in every photo! It was super sunny and we could only get him to open his eyes and look at us if Kristin shadowed his face. Which is why some are a little weird. I did my best to edit the shadows and brighten the photos so we could see his gorgeous eyes. Here are a few of my favorite.

I had to include a couple of Jake because he makes me smile!

THANKS TAM FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP. I look forward to you coming home and teaching me all that you know...ha ha! BUT SERIOUSLY! My husband thinks its funny that every Stay at home mom wants to be a professional photographer but I think we all just love taking pictures of beautiful babies! I have no desire to do this for money I just want to have fun and help out my friends a family! I would love feed back so I can learn what looks good and what doesn't!

Thanks!

Wordless Wednesday

Busy

We are settled into our new home. The tenants of our old home have the key and are moving in tomorrow. It has been an insane 2 weeks. As usual I stretch my self to thin. I have so many wonderful things going on that I cant find time to rest!

My Schedule:

• I am taking pictures of my wonderful nephew Greyson tomorrow. I have had the desire to take photos of my family and friends for a while and now Im going to give it a try.

• My BFF is coming home next week. Her wonderful husband is in the Navy and he is out to sea until January so I get to have my Tamara for the next couple months! We love her!

• Next week Brandon's dad and step mom are coming to visit and are staying with us. It will be a fun time!

• Also next week Kristin and I are starting our new play group with a couple other moms who I am excited to get to know better. I know God will bless the group and we will grow as mothers as well as friends! Its such a great group of talented creative moms....I cant wait!

• The 2nd week of September I start Bloom. Which is a 10 week morning course I am taking at Sagebrush church. Its a great class and I cant wait to see what God is going to do through each mother who is attending.

I want to post pictures up of the new house, maybe Ill get that done tomorrow. We'll see....

Good Night

Diaper Cakes

I love making diaper cakes and I was proud of how these came out so I figured I would post them up for all to see.

I made this one for my friend Nicki in December for Jonah's baby shower.

I used the extra diapers and made balloon weights with Jonah's name on them. They turned out super cute!

This diaper cake I made today for Jessica my friend Tamara's sister in-law who is expecting her 1st baby. I love it!
