Taking Pictures And Making Memories

So here’s the question….Who’s the “picture taker” in your family? In my family it’s me, whenever there’s an event where pictures are being taken I’m usually the one behind the camera. I enjoy it; trying to get those moments with the cute smiles, funny faces or just the right shot to showcase a special moment is important to me because … Continue reading

Recently, I had to find a picture from about a year and a half ago, for a friend of mine.  I have an amazing program called Memory Manager from Creative Memories; it’s so amazing, that usually I can find pictures from years ago in minutes with just a few clicks of the keyboard.  Imagine that you are looking for a picture of your daughter … Continue reading

Growing Valentines

I’m having growing “older” pains!  No, there’s nothing wrong with me physically, but the mental pains of my children getting older strikes home periodically.  Today while uploading some Valentine’s Day school cards onto my Etsy site, I asked my youngest if she was going to hand out Valentine cards to her friends this year. Her answer felt like a shot in the heart….. ”Na, I doubt … Continue reading
