Finally Another Layout !!!

I completed another layout for a scrapbook challenge last week with the topic of "Love". I couldn't think of a better subject then my two favorite boys in the world.

This picture was taken about 10 hours after Hayden was born and it just melts my heart when I look at it.



I seriously need to start scrapbooking again but just can't seem to get back in the groove.

My Little trooper...

Hayden let me do a mini photo shoot with him today after school...He has been such a good sport about all of this that I think a trip to Toys R Us is in order this weekend.

Here are a few of my favorites....











My first class is officially over and I survived !!! It was actually a great class to start with because it covered all the basic parts of photography which in my opinion is the key to being a successful photographer.

My next class "Intro to Digital Photography" starts on February 26 and I can't wait. I really think this is something I might consider doing as a career when Hayden goes to school full-time.

Stayed tuned for more pictures...when Hayden will let me take them !!

Photography Course

My first photography course is coming to an end and I can't believe how much I have learned but I know I have so much more to learn. At least now I'm not afraid to pick up that new fancy camera that Faruq gave me at Christmas.


Here are a few of my favorite pictures..

Downtown Calgary at night


A great shot just after one of the recent snow storms we had last week.



And of course my favorite subject "Hayden" ... although I think he is starting to get tired of the camera in his face because all I hear now is "NO MORE PICTURES MOM".







And my favorite picture and I think my last for awhile.....




I have a week off then start course #2 - Intro to Digital Photography. Stay tuned I will share more of my favorite picks from the next class.

Faruq and Hayden are doing great...Faruq has volunteered with the local Running Room store to lead one of their running groups and work is busier then ever but he is loving his new job and all the challenges that it offers.

Hayden is busy, busy, busy...school is great and we have decided to send him 5 afternoons a week next year which he is very excited about.

Gymnastics is going so well...I can't believe how much he has improved since I was there the last time.

The Train Show is this weekend and the whole family is planning on attending...the boys went last year and had a ball.

We are hoping for warmer weather but the forecast isn't looking great for the next few days...I'm so over this winter it has been far colder then last year

That's it for now !!!
