Morgan's First Day of School...

Morgan started kindergarten full-time on August 18th. This was also her 6th birthday! She was extremely excited, and is loving school with her new teacher. I didn't tell her to pose for this either...what a ham! :o)

Maddox Photo Exhibited...

Hi Everyone,

The photo above I took of my nephew Maddox is being exhibited at the Iowa State Fair in their infamous Photography Salon. Out of 3600 photos and 1200 photographers, only 800 photos are on display from 545 photographers. I did not receive an award however the fact I had one out of four I submitted on display is an honor.

Take Care & Best Wishes,

Shannon

Planet in Peril...

Take a look at this link to a CNN special:

Think...What can you do to help? What are we doing to ourselves?

I think we need to make as many people aware, aware of what this REALLY means! This effects everything, and everybody. No one is left out!

Can you post this link on a blog or your own website, can you donate a small sum or your time to help out a special cause? What can you do to help? Think...think...think

Fun Times...

4-5 Weeks...

3 weeks old...

Baby Owen at 3 weeks old, and growing already so quickly. In my opinion, he can't wait to play with his brother and sister and cousin's so he's trying to grow as quick as he can. He started "officially" smiling last week. I wasn't for sure at first, but when he would make eye contact with me, it was undenyably a perfect smile. They come and go pretty, quick and randomly right now, so I'll work hard at trying to get a picture. His doctor told us at his two week appointment that this is possible...and study's have show newborns can mimick faces right after birth. I think he's also going to pass up his older brother aka "The Manimal or Tank" as he's already weighing in at 9 lbs. I about couldn't believe it when they put him on the scale!
