Katie helped me string the lights.


My lights came in the mail yesterday.  Katie and I hung them on the umbrella just like we saw at Pottery Barn.  I just adore twinkle lights so I just took a little leap and bought them.  Now I need those little outdoor candles to keep the buggies away.



This is from our trip to San Francisco to see Patrick Jr.
Muir Beach. 2010.

    I just laid Sophie down for a nap and enjoying a little bit of quiet time. How fun are those twinkle lights?! Now you just need to have some company over. : )

    Happy weekend!

  8. I always love your family portraits!! :)
    I have a camera question: I am going to Turkey and Greece. I have a kit lens for the Sony A55 or something like that (It's a pretty good digital camera), I have a Tamron 18-270 (I think that is right), and a 50mm. If I were taking two of them, what would recommend? The Tamron and the 50mm? I think two would be enough to keep track of...if you knew me in person, you would agree. :)
    Thank you for any advice!!
