Avery Montage

Ok, ok... so I know I just posted the annual video and that's probably what you're here to see (it's below), but I couldn't resist sharing a quick montage of Avery from last week at 2 mo 3 wk old. She's growing at warp speed!!! ~ Runtime: 2 min.

Life a la 2008

This year was pretty eventful, life-changing, insert-epic-adjective-here! Here's the re-cap with some fav tunes from this annum.
Runtime: 18 min.

Family Road Trip

Every year about this time we take a trip up to Sedona. The air is crisp and hiking through the red rocks quickly cleanses the soul. This was also Avery's first time in the snow... Her cold weather get-up made her look like a new Dr. Suess character! (as always, click on the pictures to enjoy them up close!)

A Diaper Reprieve

2 years ago I painted this tree in the nursery of a wonderful young family. This year, they asked me to duplicate the whimsy on some children's furniture for Christmas. Having not picked up a paintbrush in almost 3 months, it was a fabulous timeout from my baby responsibilities. Not to mention some sweet side cash to help fund Matt's desperate need to be Blackberried! * wink *
