Fun With My Phone Monday

I missed last weeks link-up with Savanah over at What Makes Savanah Smile... so I am back at it again this week!

My friend Tara and I have made it a habit this summer to go to the most amazing sno cone place EVER, Mam's House of Ice - seriously NOTHING beats a sno cone with a scoop of ice-cream, best. thing. ever.

So every time we go we always eat them in her car, (hello Texas is in a drought and it's hot I'm eating my 'cone in the AC..) and it NEVER fails we see some of the most, we will say "unique" people walk up. This trip was no different, this lovely lady nearly showed us her Britney at the sno cone place....not something I was to see while enjoying my summer treat.

Also if you follow me on Twitter or on Facebook you know that my hubs started school again last week. I told him that I needed to take the obligatory "first day of school" photo, initially he was against it but then rolled with it before he left, all of our friends got a kick out of it

...and here is is class schedule

...and my hubs' newest addiction...thankfully the DVR has cleared up a bit - although we decided that one day we totally want to buy property in the Dominican Republic one day

Saturday I played in a benefit softball tournament and this is how hot it was...it felt hotter

and after the first game my knee and shin felt like this...
at least my leg looks tan? Ha!

Go check out more phone fun!

White

The theme over at I Heart Faces this week is "white" so I decided to share another photo from Tara's Trash the Dress session. This is definitely one of my most favorite sessions to date!

Black and White Wednesday - Miss Eileen

This past weekend was a LONG one, and I think it took me a few days to recover. I had soccer boot camp on Saturday at the gym for almost 4 hours, then had to go shoot a session/birthday party for another 3 and back on the field for Soccer on Sunday morning - and it was HOT. 

Although I was insanely tired, oh and sore I had a great time at Miss. Eileens sunshine themed birthday party! I have not seen a birthday party with cuter decorations, it was so adorable! Here is Miss. Eileen enjoying her day!

Hey, Its OK Thursday

Another Thursday is here, so I am participating in Amber's Hey It's OK Thursday!



Its Ok Thursdays


...It's OK that I put my ice-cream in the microwave for a few seconds before I eat it, hellooooo trying to get a spoon is hard work when its frozen solid



...It's OK that I am still staring at a load of clean clothes that are waiting to be folded

...It's OK that I could eat a really good sandwich everyday vs anything else

...It's OK that I wasted a hour and a half of my life watching "The Wild and Wonderful White's of West Virginia"

...It's OK that I am pretty sad that the MTV Challenge season finale is next week

...It's OK that I am pretty excited about all the new clients I have been booking for photo sessions

...It's OK that I am seriously over the repeated 105 degree days, I love summer but it's pretty ridiculous

...It's OK that I am over the insane heat, but I hate winter

...It's OK that Hubs is starting school on Monday at Rice and I am already ready for him to be done (he will be done in January - yay!) He will be a...

Fun With My Phone

Another week starting, which means another Fun With Your Phone Monday over at What Makes Savanah Smile. 

So this past week...

My shin splints have been AWFUL, pretty sure there is some scar tissue up in there. VACATE PLEASE!

I bought this fun prop for some upcoming engagement sessions I have!

My friend Tara and I had this amazing brunch and a delicious frozen mimosas at one of my most favorite places - Onion Creek

This past weekend I nearly ran out of gas - OOPS!

Had this for dinner - clearly hubs was not home, and I did NOT feel like making anything

I was also a good wife and bought some of hubs' favorite beer....ok I wanted this


 so I had to bring something home for him too

Eyelashes

About a month ago my friend Tara and I were talking and got onto the subject of weddings, she mentioned that she never took bridals so we decided that since her dress was still crumpled on the floor that we would do a "Trash the Dress" session of sorts.

So me, Tara and my cousins girlfriend Kelly grabbed our venti starbucks and headed on over to the Heights area and got to shooting. I wanted to get some "normal" bridal shots and I really wanted to get this shot. I LOVE eyelashes, especially when they look like this.

This is probably one of my most favorite shots to date, I know you love it too!!

Fun With Phones Monday

I am participating in a fun new link up with the fab Savanah at What Makes Savanah Smile this week. She started a new "phone photo linkup" which is pretty self explanatory - share photos that you took with your phone. Now if you follow my blog you know I am an avid photo taker, so of course I had to participate in this!

So over the last week I have...

ordered these adorable 5x7's of my awesome nephew for family

...discovered a yummy new beer - if you like grapefruit, and beer try it!

...used these adorable flip flop coasters - oh and if you read my previous post about my newest wine obsession casal garcia wine, yes that wine was in that glass

...I also stopped and had a grande iced coffee with 2% milke - YUMMM, its not wine, or vodka but it will do!

...and lastly I received this in the mail from Celia at...just trying to find my way. It is my first Scentsy product and I love it!
