Totally random mess of a post. :)

Hi, there.

I have a totally random post for tonight.

First up…

A few months ago, I was able to knock something off my bucket list: A photo session with Erin Cobb. I have admired Erin for years, scrapbooked her kids lots and gotten to know her over email. And one thing was always clear to me: Erin is one of those angels God has walking on this earth to make others happy. And boy, was I right. She was amazing in person, magical behind a camera and just simply gorgeous. And, of course, Colin was a booger that night and wasn't playing along well, but she still was able to capture great shots. If you have a chance to get in front of her lens – do it. I bought all the images she took, but just happened to be ordering huge prints of these two gems today…

  • Check out THIS blog post – lovin' Kelly's great buttons.
  • Oh… and watch the blog over at Hero this week… I will be hosting. :)
