15 Minutes of Fame

My daughter-in-law went to a "Fame Party" and had the pictures below taken of their beautiful family. They are incredible. I'm not sure if this is available everywhere, but this is such a great idea. It's sort of like a Tupperware party, but with a photographer. Each family gets 15 minutes with the photographer and you purchase the whole CD of photos to do whatever you like with them. You can also purchase prints. Here's the link: Fame Parties.

Pictures! Pictures!

I realize I haven't finished all my postings for Dannielle's skydiving competition and I just uploaded tons of Halloween pictures. For now, here are slideshows with all the pictures. I'll have stories later. The slideshows have some little videos in them, by the way.

Best Handicap Parking Photo Ever

The weather was fabulous today. Bonnie, mom and I met Cory and Jamie and Ava for lunch at Geo Burrito, then went shopping.

We shopped for Halloween pumpkins at the Methodist church, Thanksgiving decorations at JoAnn's and Kohl's and Pumpkin Spice Lattes at Starbucks.

The best part of the day, however, was stumbling upon this fabulous site in the Kroger shopping center parking lot...

Thank God for cell phone cameras. You just never know when the best photo op of all time will be given to you like a little gift all wrapped up with a sunshiney-day bow. (Click on the picture for a better view.)
