Happpppyyyy Sppooooky Halloween!!! Go be wild like lil monkeys!

It's close to Halloween, and I had a photo shoot with Estela Creations and Jetfuel Creative (website/creative connoisseur).....I just had to share because these little monkeys can't just be left to the website itself, nope... They are so adorable and fit the mold for so many decorative options (get it, fit the mold...maybe I just laughed at that one) that I had to show this off!  Estela was so fabulous and cool with whatever I had to give a shoutout anyway! These ceramics are no more than two inches tall and three to four inches wide, but they are super fabulous with such detail, I already have an eye on several.....She told me it started when her sister was having a baby shower and she used these as decoritive pieces later giving it to her as a present....What an idea!  This idea spread like wildfire and soon she was finding herself making a website and catalog!  Here are some of my favorite monkeys...I bet you can custom make these guys, just give her an idea and she will make some of the cutest monkey guys you have ever seen!  If you need any info contact me at orthobej@hotmail.com .  Oh and Happy Halloween. BOO!

.....Annndddd Happy Holidays everyone!

A Friend's First Child

We ate leftover turkey at 1 am at her folks house in highschool....We walked together after lunch to her history class and my spanish class at Male High, we cranked called boys in college, ate dinner with (her now husband) from Stonewood and watched Alias (yes, this ages me). Were apartment roommates with our other great childhood friend Erin. Danced around like fools at concerts, shared hardships, left annoyance messages (like your applesauce is moldy toss it, or if you cut Marcus's hair make sure you wipe off those pesky hairs before putting the towel in the washer)...I was there eating dinner when she called her cousin (the first night she met her husband) and told her that he would be hers soon (paraphrase but with such confidence!)...... I was there for the wedding.  Now God blessed me the opportunity to see her first son in his first moments!  Hudson is so handsome and from what I hear came out smiling (I have no doubt he did!)....Three days later, I took some pics of this new addition.  Introducing, Hudson Michael Qualls....no doubt a blessing!  I am so blessed to have some of the most amazing friends, such an inspiration and I love them and their family sooo much!!!  Hi Hudson, welcome to the family.

Over by those Indian Rocks....In Florida

I love the fall in Florida....if anyone were to get married in the sunshine state, your best bet for true 'sunshine' would be in the fall months...September through (ahem) December...yeah yeah, I know it's not fall by mid December, but tell Floridians that.  So, on this wedding.  A beautiful couple, with a great love for each other.  (By the way they had been together for 10 years on 10.10.10!!!!)  It was super sunny on this Sunday, and I think everyone was ok with that!
