I asked Sydney to pick some pajamas, put them on, then brush her teeth. I guess I should have been more specific about which pajamas...

This is a street light I saw - just at dusk when it was almost dark. Through the trees against the blue sky...

A wonderful woman who is a beacon to her family and everyone who knows her turned 90 years old last weekend. The entire town turned out, as well as family from at least four states attended a party to celebrate her life and acknowlege the impact she's had on all those who know her.

Sydney got her first big-girl bed. She wasn't very thrilled about the whole thing until we "remembered" that her cousin has a big girl bed, too. Then she was so excited, and said it made her feel very happy.

The last game of the season for the Borah High School boys basketball team.

This is another b-ball game at Borah High School. I love the way the floor is so highly shined that the boy's shoes are reflected almost perfectly.

This is the captain of the Borah High School basketball team. I attended a few games to document these amazing young men.

Sydney found my headphones and sleeping mask, and decided to try them on - and immediately went to sleep listening to the music.

Sydney - kicked back in her chair talking over her plans for the day with her teddy bears.

I couldn't decide if I liked the shoes better in gray or pink, so I thought I'd post both. I just love the look of high-heel shoes. (Maybe it's from spending too much time with my husband.) The lines and shapes are so great. If only they were easier to walk in....

These are wooden puzzles that I've never been brave enough to take apart - I just know I'll never get them back together. Those of you familiar with them will know there's a fourth to the set - that's been laying pieces for a couple years now on my bookshelf, just waiting for the inspiration to hit that will get it back together.

I had a little more time to play with my post for today - I think it turned out kinda' cool. I've had some say it's too freaky - that the eyes are scary, but I think they're so pretty...

Another picture of Sydney - she's decided that anytime I get out my camera it's time to take her picture.... I wonder she could have gotten that idea??? :-)

So, I've been continuing to work with the product photography for my sister's business - here's another shot.

... and finally... my last post of the photos I've been shooting but neglecting to get posted in my Gestures365 project. We got a little more snow last night - just enough to leave the yellow grass peeking through.

This is Nathan. I haven't seen him since he was a teeny-tiny. When I saw him and his dad again this week, I swear I would not have recognized him - what a handsome young man he's going to be - and such a sweetheart! I hope to have more photos with Nate and his daddy soon.

My sister and her husband have started a new business called Creative Addictions. They make hand-turned "distractions from the humdrum of every day". Those of us not in the know have called them pens, pencils, letter openers, bottle stoppers, etc.... I've been experimenting with taking photos of some of their products - this is one of their pens.

Sydney again - she picked her own outfit and got dressed all by herself. Of course, including her favorite pink hat....

In contrast with the "soft" girls I've been shooting lately this one struck me...

Adorable little Lily - she just keeps getting cuter and cuter! The look on her face - I love it! Who says the "twos" are terrible??

The beautiful lines and simplicity of the profile - made even more striking by the shadow behind....
