Easter Pictures

I forced my kiddos out for their Easter Picture Session. I made them wear their Easter clothes, even though Mattie was freezing, she had on her jeans on under her dress and as soon as it wasn't her turn in front of the camera, she would put her shirt on over her dress. We got plenty of comments from on lookers, which really doesn't bother anyone, other than Jake, who then thinks that they are now friends. Here is a sneak peak, for some of you, there may be an Easter card coming your way and I would hate to ruin the surprise :)

This is for the grandma

Seal Beach with the Cousins

Todays Beach Outing

After Mattie finished up with her homework, we headed down to Crystal Cove. We had a ton of fun, and as a bonus I found some great spots for pictures!

Spring Pictures

I am doing Spring Pictures at a pre-school by our house, so yesterday I busted out the blue paper and bench I plan on using to practice some and of course I had two very willing and silly models!

Did you know that Mattie doesn't like black and white photos? I showed her my earlier post, and she asked can't you make it pretty with you know colors? So here is one for Mattie, I plan on printing it for her room.

Ballerina Mattie

Mattie's Ballet exams are coming up soon! She had to go in for her exam practice.

Last year she did really well on her exams, she only got marked down for not smiling, I think we may have the same problem this year :)

this is only a test blog posting. my blog is being weird :(
