Welcome To My Blogsite! Thanks for visiting! Please take some time to browse around and look at my work. I have a new format here - instead of asking you to take time to view two sites, I have found an easier way to clump it all together. I now have a BLOGSITE instead of a website and a blog - a hybrid site, if you will. I used to send interested clients to my blog for recent posts and then I would send them to my flash website for my pricing, calendar and galleries. Now, conveniently, it's combined into one "clever" site. I try to keep my calendar updated regularly so be sure and check that out as well and drop me a note if you would like to schedule something with me. I want my sessions to be relaxing and FUN! I mean, there aren't many people who actually enjoy getting their picture taken, are there? Let's change that...give me a ring.

Meet My Nanny, My Tennis Partner but most importantly, MY FRIEND!

Posted on December 24, 2009

I had the pleasure of meeting this blonde, bubbly and completely hilarious Texas Tech beauty summer before last. We happened to be playing on the same combo team together and I asked her if she babysits…the rest is history! Amy is so many things to me – a few days a week, she comes over at 6am in the morning so my husband and I can leave for work. She then feeds my kids, gets them ready and safely drops them off at school – ON TIME, I might add; which is way more than I can ever accomplish. She helps me in so many ways with my kids and around my house…I was so lucky to find her and my kids adore her.

Amy is also my tennis partner – poor girl! I have a very funny story to tell about our very first tennis match together. Well, ya see, Amy and I share the same birthdays; however, she was born a few days before I graduated from high school so there is quite a gap in our ages. Amy, knowing how much I dread getting older, lovingly whispered to me after playing the worst set in my life, “If you don’t pick it up, I am going to tell everyone you gave birth to me on your 18th birthday!” ha ha ha ha! That Amy chick sure is hilarious alright. Amy and I didn’t lose again that season (we haven’t been so lucky in tournaments)! Heck no am I letting her tell anyone I am her MOTHER!!! I love playing tennis with this girl…we have a great time and we really even each other out.

But before I close this little post, I must talk about what a good friend Amy has been to me. The age difference means nothing to me, she is wise beyond her years, she is the most got-it-together person I have met in a very long time and Amy is an amazing listener. We will be lifelong friends – even though she will be pushing me around in my wheelchair someday. ; )

I feel extremely blessed to have this spunky little lady in my life and I really don’t know what I am going to do without her come August – She’s graduating from Tech and moving on to new endeavors. Amy D. will be missed!

And hands down, my most favorite image of the session… (she should model!)
