I hope everyone had a great Christmas weekend and is ready for the new year!!
Lance and I spent Christmas at his parents’ this year and we finally took some pictures together so I can update a couple picture frames at my apartment. Yay!
No photo shoot at their house is complete without one goofy pose.
Me with Lance’s family – yes, I tower over all the girls. I probably should not have worn my heels for this photo.
Kayla was so much fun and SO easy to photograph – she’s got a great smile but can turn it off in an instant for a quick serious pose. Not many girls can pull that off! And to top it off, she can look great in SUPER cold weather. I was wearing my down coat to keep warm, and she was wearing short-sleeved shirts and tights!!
Kayla – Thanks for being a rockstar – I admire you for willing to take pictures in such cold weather! Honestly, it took me a couple hours to completely warm up after our session!!
Nancy and Rachel – Thanks for being a great team and helping out with outfits, shoes and keeping warm in the car. :-)
For those of you who received a package from studio lb from mid-September through October, I’m sorry.
I received a box from my mom yesterday and I asked if her stamp stash was running low after sending me that. “What are you talking about?” “Mom, half the box is covered in stamps!!”
I had no idea this is how the Post Office put postage on packages.
It looks like sticker art from my 3-year-old nephew.
So there it is. $7.05 in 44- and one-cent stamps.
Welcome to the first editon of “laura loves…” where I share a few of my favorite things that I currently can’t get enough of!!
Feel free to share some of your favorite things in the comments below! :-)
1. Jayme Dee – She’s so adorable and she has SUCH an awesome voice!! I am hooked on her covers of Cooler Than Me and Baby It’s Cold Outside. Both of which you can download (for free!!) on the link under each video.
2. Ingrid Michaelson – I have downloaded lots of her songs from iTunes, but my current favorite is Parachute. You can download the acoustic version of the song by liking her facebook page, going to the ’12 days of Ingrid’ tab, and clicking ‘download!!’
3. My new roll-top desk!! It’s so pretty and has so many cute little drawers. And I purchased it for only $150!!! Deal of the year. (Thanks, Shannon!!) :-)
4. The Proposal – Sandra Bullock is my FAVORITE actress. And Ryan Reynolds is always a pleasure to look at. And Oscar Nuñez (Ramone) is toooo funny. I finally purchased this movie a few days ago and so now I alternate watching this and…
5. Elf – “Buddy the Elf, what’s your favorite color?” “SANTA!!!!! I know him!!!!” “And to finish, we’ll snuggle.” “Francisco! That’s fun to say! Franciscooo.” “Is there sugar in syrup? Then YES!” “I just like to smile. Smiling’s my favorite.” “He must be a South Pole elf…” Yes, I could quote this movie all day long if you let me… :-)
6. Christmas bows make presents look so much prettier!!
I hope everyone is having a nice Monday!
And if not, here’s something to make you smile.
Me. About twenty years ago.
