About Me

My photo
This blog is about what happens to a former newspaper photographer when she becomes a mama and moves home to raise her kids. I'm a wife to my best friend Michael who is a photographer for the Tulsa World. I am a mama to two beautiful girls who make me laugh every day. I was born and raised in Oklahoma and I think it's a wonderful place to raise our children. I was a newspaper photographer for 13 years before leaving to stay home with my girls. One of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. I am blessed with the ability to stay home with the girls mostly but also freelance photography some. Sometimes I can't believe I'm actually getting paid to do something that is so fun! I recently heard someone say "I spent my 20's thinking I knew everything and I have been spending my 30's proving myself wrong." I relate so much to that because I realized a while back that I spent my 20's thinking mostly about myself and my career and I have spent my 30's mostly thinking about our children and how I could stay home with them more and work less.

My crafty friends strike again!

I have so many creative and crafty friends. I wonder why that is? I think I'm just attracted to these kind of people. They are so warm and kind and just overall happy people. I think all of us have some craftiness in there somewhere.
My good friend Christine Pirtle is making these ADORABLE necklaces and selling them for $25 that includes 3 charms with whatever saying you want stamped on there. The charms are oversized so it's a very chunky and cool piece. Like my Sonnie charm is 2" wide and the "love" charm is 2" long. Love it!! Email her at ctuzz2002@yahoo.com if you want one for yourself. Great mother's day gift huh?
