Meet Jennie and her Shop!

My best friend Jennie found her passion and love of sewing, and lucky for us, she has opened her very own Etsy shop called YellowPlumBlossoms! She makes great things like Crayon Roll-Ups, Custom Blankets, Burp Cloths and Bags.

Go have a look...

Make sure to check out Tasha's blog at Dot Dot Dot and see other fun things that are featured.

Homan Sisters | Fullerton

Shannan and her Sister Stephanie wanted to surprise their mother with some updated pictures for her birthday this year. It's a good thing because, the pictures they have hanging up are almost 10 years old. I love that they wanted to get all dressed up and take some great original shots. It was fun following these beautiful girls around downtown Fullerton, and watching everyone's head turn to catch a look.

Jesse - Senior Pictures | Redlands

My handsome neighbor Jesse is graduating High School this year and I was so honored when his mother asked me to take some pictures, marking this time in his life.

This young man has his priorities in order! He is involved in A.V.I.D. and already preparing for his future in Mechanical Engineering. He is doing well in his classes, is a great brother to his two younger sisters, and just recently got his Driver's License.

Congratulations Jesse!

               

Smiles

The I Heart Faces contest for this week is "Smiles". Of course I have a ton of pictures of people smiling, so it was hard to pick just one.

This is my young neighbor Corrie. She has the most darling smile and sweet personality to go along with it.

Happy Birthday Nella!

I began following Kellee Hampton's blog a while back. Her story just captured my heart from the get go. If you have a minute please check it out and click on the tab that says "Start here If You're New". Grab your tissues.

Her beautiful daughter Nella is turning one this year, and the Hampton Family have set up a fund raiser on the National Down Syndrome Society Website. Her goal is set at $30,000 and she is already up to $16,180. She has until January 22nd to complete this totally attainable goal. If only her followers donated just $5, her goal will be beyond reached, and would help the NDSS in their mission of creating "a culture that fully accepts and includes the 400,000 Americans with Down Symdrome".

I challenge you to donate just $5 or more if you wish, to Nella's ONEder Fund.
