happy monday.

i am sure i'm not the only one who has had a stressful and busy summer! it feels like it is finally slowing down a little bit, and for that i am thankful. i had the honor of taking some more photos for my family this past weekend. little ethan is now 5 weeks old! this is one of my favorites from the shoot - my brother's college ring was so big, we were afraid to put it on his foot! i'll post more as i get them edited. my brother couldn't believe i took almost 200 pictures... but that's the beauty of digital. take a bunch of pictures and you up the chances of having more usable photographs.

i'll be creating some announcements for them soon as well! i've been eyeing these silhouette machines... this would be perfect to make little cutouts of his name to go in the envelope or something... but with all the big purchases we've made this summer (car... camera lenses... etc) i just can't justify purchasing one. do any of you have one? do you absolutely love it? i'm going to put it on my someday list...
