Jake has a very cute habit, at the moment, which tends to bring on a wide smile.
When ever he is given a treat, like a sweet, he shreaks in the most over-exaggerated and over-enthusiastic voice.... "WOW WEE!" (insert huge excited eyes) that it makes my heart have hysterics.
While editing Trevor and Vivien's wedding, recently, I came across this one and just thought of Jake screeching "WOW WEE!".
I am not sure how I previously overlooked it for the blog selection, although, it was kept aside in a to-post folder, a little late, but, here it is. . .
Its been a scorcher of a week, here in Johannesburg, which means sprinklers and chardonnay!
These photos are absolutely beautiful - you're so lucky, you know how lucky you are don't you? xx
(01.15.09 @ 12:57 PM)Yep, count my blessing every day, and I DO try and appreciate the small "unimportant" things...although this week has been a particular bad week in counting blessings.
(01.15.09 @ 05:35 PM)In between the school holidays, SantaMan and everything else, I did manage to shoot a wedding; that of Brenda and Joe, at the Westcliff . I am afraid I do not have enough "sane" time at the moment, where I can sit quietly and write a more descriptive account of the day and feel it unfair not to post their pics.
A couple of highlights, which do stand out, was Joe surprised Brenda at the reception and pulled out a guitar so that he could serenade her, plus, the surprise presentation he put together, digging out all her old photos.
I have kept it black and white, in an effort to attempt to move out of my comfort zone and my obsession for colour. . . I have also finally found a black-and-white conversion I truly like!!
On another note, it seems my "Out of Office" does not go out to all incoming emails - not sure why? But, just to remind you I'm still on leave and officially "in the office" as of Monday 12th January 2009.
Here you are Brenda and Joe, apologies for the non-descript post
The light streaming through the windows in the seond one is just WOW! I'd love to see more of these...hint, hint...
(01.07.09 @ 04:30 PM)Although a little late with this one, I would like to first thank all my blog followers for actually visiting my "humble portal", adding your valued comments and truly reading what I am mumbling on about.
Here's to 2009 and let's hope this year passes in less of a flash!
Much to my disbelief, I have made a couple of resolutions for the year.
Nothing too hectic or painful, so the wine and chocolate stay for another year! These resolutions revolve around "me", so it should be easier to abide by them.
One: I am going to organise my personal pictures, PRINT them (that's the biggie) and put them into my bare albums. I have a backlog of note that I am too ashamed to announce here.
Two: Project 365: A personal project where I aim to document our lives for an entire year. Almost a blog post with an image a day, except it will be more like a private journal - no fancy scrapbooking stuff, just a journal.
Three:Shout less (at the midgets) and stop a little to smell the flowers (the first part was already broken on New Years day; a two hour resolution).
Another smaller resolution: there will be no post without a picture, so here is Liam at the park (with bits of chicken in his teeth)
Hi Andrea, when you master No. 3 can you let me know your secret please? :-))
(01.05.09 @ 10:09 PM)...what makes it even worse, is that with Christmas over I have lost a fraction of authourity...I can no longer threat them with "Santaman is watching"
(01.07.09 @ 02:47 PM)The kids got their christmas stockings filled with sweets this morning... nothing like sugar intoxicated midgets at 7am... the joys ...fa la la la la la!
Liam had his red and white cane in his mouth running up and down the passage shouting "sucker" "sucker"...except with his limited vocab skills, he replaced the 's' of sucker to a 'f'.
Off to the folks to celebrate Christmas eve.
Wishing you and your loved ones a blessed Christmas.
Love the newborn shoot of the twins ... gorgeous! Loving your new blog layout too! Happy new year!
