Session Nine Photography

I LOVE Session Nine Photography! They have photographed some very special moments for my family over the past year and I cannot wait till we have our next session. We have pictures taken by Session Nine framed all over the house. Jason and Jessica are friends of ours and are so talented. They have photographed many of my friends families and events as well. Right now they have a summer special going... $100 gets you a Lifestyle Session if you book and complete your shoot on or before September 30th. This is an AMAZING deal. The shoots are SO SO MUCH FUN, the pictures are great, AND they give you a CD with your images to print wherever you want! (I like to use MPIX) I know there aren't many openings left so if you are interested book them soon!

Here are some of my favorite pictures they've taken for us...

Time for Something New

Well, It's been awhile. Awhile since I've posted anything. And I've come to the conclusion that I think I want to start blogging. I think. It has been something that I think about every once and awhile, when I want to share a cute picture, fun idea, craft project, recipe... ANYTHING. Or, when I want to just write, talk, vent, think, share... but I have never really gotten around to doing it. Part of the reason why is because so many of my friends have these wonderfully creative blogs that they do a pretty good job of updating regularly. I'm afraid that if I start blogging I wont be able to keep up with it, but now I'm to the point that I don't care. So, I might blog every day one week, and just one time the next. Who cares? I don't! ;) With that being said, right now, I'm going to start blogging! (Actually, our computer is broken (and has been for about 6 months) so I will be using Chris' as often as he brings it home from the office!)

What to write about first...

Jackson is in swim lessons right now. He is going to be 3 in November and for the most part has always enjoyed being in the water. But, after seeing his friend Baylor swimming like a pro he decided he wanted to "jump in and swim like Baylor". Luckily his buddy Hudson had just taken swim lessons and learned a ton so we knew exactly where to sign him up at. Mrs. Parker's house. He calls her Mrs. Mrs. Parker. We aren't quite sure why. He LOVES his swim lessons. Every day he practices floating on his back, diving for rings, scooping the ice cream with his hands and kicking his feet so hard he splashes everyone. His FAVORITE is jumping off the diving board. He talks about it all the time and requests to do it while there. My FAVORITE is watching him get thrown into the pool, turning around, and climbing out all by himself. I am so excited for him and proud of him. I just can't believe how big he is getting!

Here is a video of him getting tossed in and jumping off the diving board.

East Valley Young Lives Tea & Silent Auction

Here are a set of dish towels and an apron I made for the East Valley Young Lives Ladies Tea and Silent Auction.  Young Lives is an amazing organization that works with pregnant teens and teen moms.  Women walk along side these girls showing them God's love and mentoring them.  The ladies tea is a fundraising event that sends teen moms to camp during the summer, where they can be teens, have wonderful volunteers love on their babies, be served by others, and learn about Christ's love for them.  If you would like to learn more about Young Lives visit www.younglife.org/YoungLives.  Or email me at sewlexi@gmail.com for more information on how you can get involved in Young Lives.
