New Camera!




Well, my new camera finally arrived (somehow forgot to mention I ordered one in my last post, don't know why, its all I can talk about!). I've had very little time to play with it so far, but I am LOVING IT! Its nice to have the proper tools to help you achieve your dreams, it really is. So here are a couple pics that I took today, camelias have to be one of my favorite flowers.

wait for it....its almost here!


My blog is getting a makeover by my friend Stacie at Studio C Designs. I admit it, I am computer illiterate, so this will be a big help to me! It should be ready in a few days so check back soon. Here is a photo that I think describes my feeling of anticipation pretty well...

♥ Heart Project ♥ Day 13


"Clean Heart" I think I'm gonna keep cutting my sponges into heart shapes from now on. Its much better to use a heart shape sponge to wash dishes than a plain one!

♥ Heart Project ♥ Day 12


"Lighthearted" My three year old will be forever changed by this heart project. We were in Target a few days ago and she could hardly contain herself over all the heart decorations and displays, " Mommy, theres ANOTHER HEART!!!! YOU HAVE TO TAKE A PICTURE!! And so, I get my imaginary camera out and "chickit" (thats the shutter), and she's satisfied... till we pass the greeting card display...

♥ Heart Project ♥ Day 11


"Heart of Gold" Almost done with the heart project! I must admit- after this I don't want to see hearts for awhile! This is a great project to help me improve my photography skills though, if you want to be good at something you have to do it every day. Immerse yourself in a skill you want to master! Practice really does make perfect, its true. Come back tommorow, its a fun pic! Hint: the title is "Lighthearted" hmmmmm....

♥ Heart Project ♥ Day 9


"Heart to Heart" I have problem... I like saucers and pretty little dishes... I guess its not a problem till you get too many.... They are just fun to collect and they don't take up too much room. Anyway, I finally got a photograph of one and I think these red foil hearts look scrumptious in it! Well, I'd stay to chat, but I gotta get to work on the next heart!

♥ Heart Project ♥ Day 8


" You make my ♥ melt! " For me Valentines Day is not just about romantic love, but appreciating those people that really make you happy. There are certain people in my life that bring me joy just being in their presence. In a cold world its so nice to surround yourself with people that make your heart melt...

♥ Heart Project ♥ Day 7


"Coffee Lovers Heart" I ♥ coffee!! And I really love spending time at coffee shops. Theres just something about taking time out of a busy day and visiting with a friend or having a quiet moment sipping coffee doing NOTHING. Really, I highly recommend it...

♥ Heart Project ♥ Day 6


This is called "Kid at Heart". As a young mom, I see lots of cheerios! Its like manna from heaven, only for toddlers. The kiddo is hungry? Here eat some cheerios! She is talking too loudly in the library? Here are some more cheerios! Cheerios under the car floormat, cheerios in my jacket pocket, a few random cheerios hanging out in the bottom of the diaper bag ( which if you don't remove them in a timely manner make what is called cheerio dust). Just don't get me started on goldfish crackers!

This is called "Heartbreak". No, my heart is not broken, but I sure had a great time breaking hearts on the concrete with a hammer.... My neighbors must wonder about me :)
