I was asked earlier this week if I would upload a couple of pictures to this site so that a friend could order one, and pay me for taking it, so thats what I did.

No idea what this may turn into, but its worth a shot!

You can see all of the shots that I have uploaded to the site by hitting next or previous underneath my name.

Easter Sunday dawned beautiful outside and topped out at about 85. So all of the kids decided that they needed to go for a dip in the pond at Larry and Norma's.

I'm not concerned with your liking or disliking me... All I ask is that you respect me as a human being. - Jackie Robinson

Whisteria

The only shot I got this season of Whisteria, thanks to the camera fiasco!

Prom pictures

Kelsey brought home her flyer about prom pictures by LifeTouch today. The least expensive package is $35, and you do not get a decent selection.

So I will be doing her pictures again this year (surprise)!

If anyone would like me to take casual shots for them before prom on Friday night, let me know and we can figure out where to meet! I know we are planning on going to the river again like last year, and I found a couple of neat backroad places to go as well.

Quote of the day

Children Learn What They Live

If children live with hostility,
they learn to fight.

If children live with ridicule,
they learn to be shy.

If children live with tolerance,
they learn to be patient.

If children live with encouragement,
they learn confidence.

If children live with praise,
they learn to appreciate.

If children live with fairness,
they learn justice.

If children live with security,
they learn faith.

If children live with approval,
they learn to like themselves.

If children live with acceptance, and friendship,
they learn to find love in the world.

The kiddos on Easter

Yeah so its almost 2 weeks after Easter! What of it! lol

Natalie's two seconds of fame.... so far!

On Tuesday I recieved a phone call at school asking if Natalie could take part in a television spot the local news channel was doing on math in our schools. Of course I said yes! The story is here: http://www.13wmaz.com/news/local_story.aspx?storyid=77623

Watch the video story and you can see her! :)
Of course, you only can see her for about 2 seconds when they are speaking with Mr. Derzi.
