Wow… have I been MIA on the blog for a while, or what. I’m going to start with my trip to Portland and Seattle as my excuse … my excuse for falling behind on everything at the end of September. But no fear, photos will be delivered soon and I’m gearing up for my busiest October yet! October seems to be the most popular month of the year for family photos … something about the fall color, and of course Holiday cards : ) Which speaking of, Liz and I will have some new designs ready mid-month and will be sending out an e-Blast and Blog post for our new 5×7 card designs for 2009. They’re going to be pretty sweet!

Also, in a couple hours I will be pulling a lucky winner out of my blog comment jar for a $50 GIFT CARD! You may remember this little contest to say Thanks to all of you… leave a comment, win a gift card…

I’ll also be jamming the blog with new shoots over the next week… but for now, here is lovely Seattle…
(where, by the way, I ran into Kate Hudson and A Rod at a Starbucks! Sure did. Actually, what I told my husband when he came back from the bathroom was, “I just ran into Kate Hudson and some guy.” (ha) Figured out later she was with A Rod as the Yankees were in town).
