Lots to post today! =)
Well, Miss Tina has tagged me to list 5 weird things about myself. =) It's hard to list them because I know I have a ton of odd things that I do, but I think it's normal KWIM? I'm sure you all will think I really need therapy after you read them! LOL!!
1. I vaccum my house every Wednesdays and Sundays! It never fails...it has to be those days. And if for some reason I don't do it....I feel weird about it. LOL!!
2. I honestly think that I can sing! You all have seen those people on American Idol that try out and the judges have this complete dumb-founded look on their face like "what on earth are they smokin"?" That's me....I sound good to myself but to others, I sound like a bandsaw! =)
3. I cannot...I stress cannot sleep with socks on! =)
4. I'm a list maker freak....I write to-do lists all the time...I write a to-do list to write a to-do list! LOL!!
5. I LOVE peanut butter, jelly and banana sandwichs! Hmm Hmm GOOD! =)
So, now you guys know I'm a complusive/obessive person! Please send money to my paypal account so I can afford to go to a doctor and get some help! LOL!! =)
Now...hmmm, who am I going to tag? I think:
Frederique
Alisha
Jennifer
Amy
Julie
Now, I can't post without posting photos! =) We got Gracie's Sam Squaredance skirt in the mail the other day and I LOVE it! I want one.....I picture myself vaccuming on Wednesdays and Sundays wearing it! LOL!! Just call me Mrs. Cleaver! =)
And...drumroll please! All you guys that asked for a self-portrait about a decade ago (ok,maybe not that long)...well here ya go! The best I can do...it's hard to set up and do all that stuff and then run in front of the camera! =)
And of course...Gracie got in on the action! =)
Notice how SMALL they are....HEE-HEE! =)
Everyone have a wonderful weekend! =)

Ha, brenda, I love the pictures of you and miss G. How did you manage to get focus? All my attempts were blurry. What f-stop did you use?
Oh and thanks for...tagging me..and for your comment on my blog!!!

i'm luvin' that skirt too! too cute!
i'm curious about the self portrait shot too? mine are usually blurry as well!
Hi Brenda...just wondering if you can share how you set-up your backgrounds. your white and black backgrounds always look so good. i am wondering what they look like before you ps them and what you do in ps to get the so black/white. Any help for this newbie would be appreciated.
Brenda...are you joking me? YOU ARE STUNNING!!!! Now I can see you..What a great group of photos..I love them...
Oh my gosh. How cute are you Brenda. Glad to finally see your face.
I can see where Gracie gets her looks.
Love the interesting facts about you. I wouldn't say you are OCD at all. Just a little eccentric...HA! You're absolutely beautiful and your gracie looks so much like you. I should have already known what you looked like. Of course it's so nice to put a face with your photos.
Not sure if you tagged me since I know there is another amy that comments, but I will take it as me and answer away.
Love, LOVE, the pics of you and Gracie. I tried a maternity self portrait the other day and I pale in comparison. It's hard to focus, pose and click in front of the camera!!
*cat call* hot stuff!! ;)
thanks for indulging us!!
lol, I LOVE pbj&b sandwhiches too! yumm....
Great pictures, fun blog today!!

i am also wondering about your self-portrait tips and about your black and white backgrounds. what are you using? they look great!!! thanks!!
Your blog is so fun! I LOVE that skirt! Where did you get it! It's great!! Your pictures are so great and I am super greatful that you share them with all of us!

i am loving the photos of you and little miss gracie! it's so nice to put a face with your work. :) i can see where gracie gets her cuteness! gracie's skirt is too fun!! and...i'm with the other amy...not sure which one of us you tagged, but we'll both play along, just for fun. :)
Love your pics and reading your funny quirks. I've got to add mine to my blog and tag some people. I'm a little out of sorts as we just tried to get my husbands whole side of the family's pictures taken - and Savannah was HORRIBLE! I put her in the car, buckled up, and lectured her the whole way home about ruining the family pictures. I HATE getting my pictures taken - but you look great!!!
you look totally different to how I imagined! Im not sure what I pictured you to look like but its the opposite of what you do, you look great by the way :-)
Oh and I cant sleep with my socks on either! why is that!?!
Nice to see you! LOVE the skirt - I gotsta get me one of them!!!
I love the shot of you and Gracie facing the camera - you pull the exact same face! ;)

I dont think your crazy..sadly it was a lil mirror like for me..LOL. I used to clean our house top to bottom on a Thursday night. and then pick up and bathrooms on Sunday night. (this way.. I would get up and go to work friday and come home to a perfect house for the weeekend. :) no jobs! and looking good if anyone dropped in. Now I clean Wednesdays and Sundays (most days in between) and vac at least twice a week (I am cutting back from daily)
the one of you 2 kissing is adorable! I just love it!!!

I'm a list freak too!!!
And you are such a cutie! I see where Gracie gets that cuteness from. Well I am sure dad is cute too...haha, but I haven't seen him.
How do you take pics with glasses? I couldn't do that. LOL!
Brenda,
I LOVE seeing the pics of you and your daughter. Having a face with a name is nice! I also was wondering how you were doing, missing your comments! I hope you are feeling better and I love your blog. Your writing is very down to earth....I love that! Thank you for the inspiration that you give to me and so many photographers. You are a blessing.
Terry
You look like Jennifer Garner, defined arms and all!

Had to edit my comment. I mean how do actually see and look through the camera eye piece to take the pics while wearing glasses. Kind of sounded like I didn't know why you wearing glasses for your self-portraits. LOL! Didn't mean that.
Nadia...LOL!! I know what you meant...I actually take them off, I can't do it. It's a surprise that I get anything decent at all...when I went to the eye doctor she pretty much laughed at me and asked me how on earth I functioned everyday...my eyes are really bad. =( And I refuse to wear contacts...they freak me out! LOL!
Lambie,
OK...you're the 3rd person that has said that...that's so cool! I wish I could kick some butt like she can though! =)
Terry,
Thank you so much...that was awfully sweet too say! =)
Love your self portraits.. beautifully done..
