Okay seriously I had a blissful long weekend in Tennessee the sunshine warm weather. Heack I even have a sandal tan! My piggies are not white anymore. But let me tell you they are cold now. How can it be so cold here. Oh please warm up this is uncalled for. I long for warm spring days. So to commemorate the great time in TN here are so more pics of our models and a bit of the behind the scenes with the wonderful photographers I met on my journey.

Stephanie D: That is so cool! I really need to try this out!

Amy Dungan: These look great Rhonda! I've tried this with hearts, but I don't think my cutout was the right size, they were a little off.
Carri M.: I love the bunny. These both worked out well for you. So many people are having a really hard time with it. Nice job.

Beaumont Photographer Sweet and Sassy ~ 8 Years ago
April 1, 2009Well the time is here again to think back to April 2001. My baby girl is now a big girl. She has grown so tall. She takes after her father for sure. This year her reading has really impressed me. She reads books now like they are going out of style (that she gets from her mama). She is showing interest in the kitchen and wanting to cook. This thrills me to no end because when she was 2 she used to say she didnt want to learn to use the “cooker” because she would be stuck in the kitchen all day and no time for Treehouse! Well now were all about Hannah Montana and Jonas Brothers. We had a party at Build a Bear for her and took her shopping at La Senza Girl. For about 3 yrs now she would drag me there to try things on knowing full well they just wouldnt fit. She was over the moon to see she could wear their tank tops now!

Dont forget the Fresh Faces Contest!
Get those entries in!
Tiffany: Awww.....she's so grown up! Her smile hasn't changed a bit!
Mel Chern: Really cute!!!

Carri M.: Awww, it's so sweet to watch them grow isn't it. But it sure does go so fast.
