It is so easy concentrate on the bad, what isn't going our way or what we don't have, especially in our current economy. But today is a day to remind us to be thankful for the good in our lives! I want to send a big THANK YOU to each and every one of my clients! Thank you for realizing the value of photography, in capturing yourselves/families/children and especially for in trusting me to do so! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Most little kids have a blanket or something that they carry around everywhere with them. For me it was snoopy. My Dad got me this little puppy dog when I was about a year old and we were inseparable! He went everywhere with me and it shows (That scare under his eye isn't because of a bad attitude or fight)! Snoopy had to be repaired a few times, as he started out as a beanie baby type. At some point snoopy was MIA for quite a while and reappeared as a Christmas gift from my parents having had a little plastic surgery (don't judge him)! By this time I was in High School so Snoopy has stayed in this better condition and hung out in my room ever since we were reunited!

Last weekend my very talent friend Cheryl, her Mom and a few others had a art show. Her Mom was selling some VERY adorable little animals that she had made and I saw this little guy!

Well, he reminded me of a new modern version of my little snoopy! I just had to have him for the baby! Because let's be honest, I'm not letting the baby have MY snoopy! :) So it feels like a new era with the baby coming and a new "snoopy".

I also spotted this little owl that the baby just HAD to have! :)

 

There was another owl just like mine available but bigger, another slightly different "snoopy" and LOTS more goodies to check out if you're intersted. You can check out Cheryl's etsy page for lots of goodies or contact her through it to find out more about the little animals her Mom makes. :)

  1. so cute kelli! i had the very same snoopy when i was little. i can't wait to show my mom the photos you took of her little animal creations. she's going to love it!

    Actually, your Dad bought you Snoopy as a newborn but I think you didn't notice it until a year later. He was your faithful friend & I hope the "new" Snoopy is as true a friend to LT (Little Taylor)!

    I had a Snoopy too! But most of all I loved my Holly Hobby blanket that had many surgeries…I even took the blanket on my honeymoon and sewed a piece in my wedding dress for "something old." Yes – kind of dimented. Cute post :-)

    OMG-so cute! Lucky little baby :)

 

This handsome graduating high school senior, Dylan, used to be a cute baby that I used to BABYSIT for! Ugh. I feel old. How does that happen? Time goes by so fast! Enjoy your college years Dylan, they will certainly fly by! 

 

 

 

 

Thanks Dylan, Good luck and get that drivers licenses already! :)
