Blue hair and hay-bales...

How out of place is this? Blue hair and bales of straw.This looks nothing like my daughter, yet it looks good on her.

Sorry folks. No ballerina pictures of Hannah yet. I'm sure we'll get some of her in her tutu as right now it is her favorite item! This is Hannah's way of helping Mom clean. I was going through all of Hannah's clothes and reorganizing her dresser. When I emptied the bottom drawer she climbed right into it, covered herself up, and laid down. She thought it was the most funny thing EVER! She even had to add her pumpkin basket to it.

Dr. Liz Wilson or Alice?

This is Jasmyn this morning. She wanted to be Alice Cullen for Halloween this year. So Dark and early, about 6:45amCST, I was trimming her hair so it would lay properly. Our hair-dresser would be so disappointed! This picture was taken before the make-up was applied and the necklace put on. Needless to say, I think she's cute.
Sorry for the small picture. I wasn't able to get it bigger. This is the look we were trying to achieve. But, I think we ended up looking more like Dr. Liz Wilson (Jennifer Love Hewitt) off of Garfield. What do you think?

Renee Wheeler Photography...

Saturday we had a photo shoot with Renee. These are only a few. It was a very fun experience! Renee does an awesome job! She had a very difficult job. Hannah never sat still or gave her a break! Even in this photo Hannah was fighting Jasmyn to get away and still managed to get both girls smiling!

Jasmyn in a tree. That's right, IN A TREE! It was a great idea...until it was time to come down! She is very afraid of heights. She was laughing at her dad with a pumpkin on his head and one in each hand.

This was snapped while playing "ring around the rosie". Hannah's new favorite thing to do! This was on the "we all fall down!" part. I love the laughter that was captured!
Thank you Renee!

Sketching...

These are two of my current sketches. This one here is Jasmyn...I still have some work to do. I am having a little problem with her lips. I call this sketch "Blooming Daydreams". Jasmyn is a name of a flower(only spelled a little different) and looks a little dreamy in this one.This one I call "Slumbering Gracious Lamb". Hannah is Hebrew for grace...Rae is Hebrew for Lamb...and she is sleeping.

Happy Birthday Dolan!
