laykin was sick a couple days last week and so she went to my moms during the day.
she had 5ths disease... after having hand and foot disease in december. i tell ya. i sure am loving this whole "school" thing GRRR. :) hopefully we are done with the sicknesses now for at least a month. anyway, she told my mom that she needed a project to do... and then decides that she needs a board. so, my mom gets her a board (because my mom is ALL kindsa crafty and just has random boards laying around)
heehee anyway, on with the story.... laykin makes me this board with my car on it and the word "keys" b/c she says "my mom can never find her keys" lol
check it out. this kid is genius!!


i am so excited about this ginormous image that just came for my hall~

project that is less than 2 weeks old. i will waive the session fee and you will
get 50% off any prints you wish to purchase~
so, if you or someone you know has just had a baby...
have them email me jamie@lifeasaphoto.com i am taking the first person to contact me.

also, if you have a gallery up on http://www.lifeasaphoto.com/
from 2008~ i will be removing them all to free up space
for my 09 sessions. i was extremely lenient last year on the
times i left them up and this year i won't be able to do that.
so~ you will have one month to make your selections.

recently, there's not been a lot of new sessions to blog about. sorry,

last night jessi and i went to the 4:20 showing of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
it was SUCH A GREAT movie... BUT when you go to watch a movie @ 4 in
the afternoon.... wait.... when you go and watch a movie based in the 1930's @
4:00 in the afternoon.... so do the people BORN IN THE 1930's.
what an experience.
we heard... "i should have brought one of my hearing aides..... "i have to go pee pee"
and A LOT of "what did he say?" "are we in a draft of something, it's cold in here"
and my favorite... "is she gonna swim NAKED?!"
there were about 10 ppl in the theater and we were the youngest 2 by @ least 40 years...
great movie, great times! you MUST go see the movie BUT wait until later in the evening ;)
