Martha Stewart in a Can

I am breaking my strict "once every three months" posting rule--but at least this one has pictures. After being extremely proud of our Martha Stewart moment (nevermind that this is the "anyone can do it idiot version" gingerbread kit found at costco) I found the camera and tried to use it for the first time in forever (I’m not good at being a girl. I don’t ever think to take the camera, and when I do, I don’t think to use it. And when I make it that far the battery is usually dead. Or the memory is full. I’ll work on it.) So in the mean time, enjoy the phone pictures of our project last night. Sydney did this all by herself. She is a genius. And she can count to ten.

Photography Business

For the past few months between my work and Shawn’s school and work our little family is all in the same room for about 15 minutes a day (Shawn: if you are reading this I am pretty sure I forgot to push the water pitcher thing all the way back into the fridge so there is a real good chance the floor will be flooded again when you get home. Sorry. And your Mom called. She’s good.) So in lieu of family pictures, Sydney and I took a few self portraits with my cell phone. I think I am really getting the hang of this photography thing. You can almost see both of our heads in that last one. And it’s close to centered. I’m thinking about starting up a business. Maybe a glamour-shots booth in the mall if things really take off. But call early if you want your picture taken. I have a feeling that I may be booked real fast after everyone gets a look at my superior skillz...
