Fall Pictures & Wreath Update

Sunday afternoon we took Avery out to take her fall pictures. Chad & I have been enjoying our camera so much that we decided it is more fun for us to take the seasonal pictures of her. I will probably get a professional shot everynow & then but for now, I am enjoying doing it myself SO much. I love the Nikon D3000. That is what we have & it's been my favorite gift ever from him. Thanks honey!





















We enjoyed the day inside. It was alot cooler today but I could tell Ave wasn't feeling good because she kept snuggling on my lap all morning. So we decided to have a play day inside. She enjoyed playing in my bracelets, going on the front porch so I could get a picture of her, coloring, & painting a pumpkin. I am doing crafts with her all this week since it's HALLOWEEN WEEK! She had so much fun & we surprised Chad when he got home from work.









ALSO, quick update on my wreaths! I have gotten way more e-mails than I can keep up with, which I LOVE LOVE LOVE! However, the orders are getting so out of hand & so many so fast that I have decided to set up an ETSY shop. I now have a page I just need to get some product on there. I am working quickly so stay tuned as I will be responding the best as I can as the e-mails come through. I will have the ETSY product on my page VERY soon so you can purchase for Christmas. For now, here is a fun bright wreath I made for a friend for Christmas & she requested peacocks in it. I will be in touch- thank you for your patience & sweet e-mails!

  1. Avery is sooo cute! I love the pictures you took of her! You are going to be so glad in a few years that you did the seasonal pictures of her yourself. You are getting great with that camera!

    What editing program do you use? I love the look you did in the 2nd picture...

  8. You take great pictures! I'm going to guess you edit them with something for the different effects...what would that be?
