Mother's Day

so i had a really nice mothers day yesterday, and i hope all you moms out there did as well!

my day started with my girls at friendly's for breakfast (oh yes!), where they promised they would get along ALL day in honor of mothers day. poor things tried, but couldn't quite come through. lasted all of about 10 minutes. but it's the thought that counts right? and then we enjoyed the rest of the day puttering around the house, painting rocks and just spending some quality time together. i couldn't ask for more than that! AND they got me some GORGEOUS flowers from Studio 539 located right in Providence. it is seriously the most beautiful bouquet of flowers i have ever received. the next time you are in need of flowers, definitely give them a shout.

and because Madison forgot her mothers day card at school, i got a little extra mileage out of the occasion and received my card today. i just had to share, how sweet is this?

hope you all had a great day!

Flower Power

i love this time of year....it seems that all of a sudden, flowers are sprouting and trees are blooming, and the promise of my favorite time of year (summer) is approaching! it is not often that i take the camera out to photograph something other than people, but today i did. i photographed some pretty flowers, and flowers really do make me happy!

this next one just might be my fave. i love the light shining through!

then again, these smelled soooo good. i don't know what kind of flower this is, but i would love to have a bunch of these in my yard!

how can you not love flowers? mothers day is sunday (for those of you who may have forgotten), and moms always love flowers. but if you REALLY want to impress mom, you'll get her some flowers, AND a gift certificate form KM Photography! just sayin'.

Happy Mothers Day!

just an ordinary day....

most of you know I work from home. there are lots of benefits to working at home.....working in your pajamas (which I never do), being home for the kids (which I am) and ummm....i don't know, I'm running out of what's so great about it. come on fellow home office peeps, you know what i am talking about! i love my job because i get to go out and photograph some wonderful people, but there's lots of stuff that needs to be done on a computer, which people don't sometimes realize. and this is my typical desk and lunch.....(now don't be jealous!)

i'd love to be in office or studio working with someone....it can get pretty lonely here at the kitchen table. so i am announcing my goal.....i'd love to be an office or studio by....well.....when the right opportunity comes along. Until then....I guess this will have to do. and if you hear of an opportunity - give this macaroni and cheese eating girl a shout......

and because i think blogs are so much better when they include an great photo:



from a recent first communion session...super sweet!

i'm back!

so it has been forever since i have blogged, and really i wish i had a good excuse. but i got nothing. i just fell off the blogger map. and honestly, now that i am sitting here actually typing one, i realize i have missed it. so here i am, baby! i'm back! and i am bringing to you something great in this blog, since you have been long-awaiting it. i can think of nothing better to show you than some truly adorable children!

i am pretty sure i have said before that i sometimes favor the out-takes, because well, it shows true personality.....and this would be one of those times. the reaction this little guy has to his sister's kiss? LOVE it.

a little bit of silliness never hurt anyone.

same goes for a little bit of tickling.

and my fave of the day:

these two were so much fun. how could i not love this job?

so like i promised, a couple of cute kids. and one last promise....more blogs to come!
