Jayden’s Day Out

“Let the little children come to me,
and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
Mark 10:13-15

Playing around with texture overlays…been so intruiged by them. Finally got a few minutes today to try some. We picked this photograph and loved the results so we decided to post the before and after for you…
When a bride and groom hire us they not only hire us for our time, our equiment, our skill and creativity but also for the art work. That all takes time but we love it and when the album is designed it is like giving it all a beautiful home.  

Don’t you just love before and afters??? I love them…even tho I liked the before alot I really like the look of the after…

Last night I prayed that our extended warranty
had not expired for our car.

This morning I am giving thanks! The warranty is indeed covering it!

Well we left Monday morning with Dave Kelly and Jayden for an overnight trip for some rest and relaxation before the next wave of weddings…didnt expect for the computer in our car to die and leave us stranded in Lake Tahoe as we were getting ready to head out to the desert to find a spot we heard about for a shoot. That was thwarted the minute we got in the car this morning and found the car dead as a doornail. Good thing for Dave and Kelly that they left early and came in their own car. After spending all day trying to find someone to even look at our car we ended up taking it to the dealership there for someone to eventually get to…finally the repairman got back to us to say it will take 3 days to 2 weeks for the part to come in. It is the main computer for most all things electrical! So we left the car there and rented one to come home in…blah! Hope you had a much nicer ending to your weekend…but hey tomorrow is a new day!

Uh oh!!!

Had breakfast with Jayden today! We went to Awful Annie’s and was it good! Jayden sat in a high chair and had so much fun looking at everyone and everything there. We had fun passing him around too, of course!

I just love his smile….

An interesting thing happened to me about a month ago. I got a call from a woman who said she bought my CD at a local Christian Bookstore. I was like wha???? After speaking to her for about 5 minutes we got it figured out. Back in 2003 or so I recorded some Cd’s. I got this inspiration in the middle of the night to make these CDs. I told Mark about it the next morning and within a week I had my first one outlined and Mark got things together for me to record soon after. In case you are thinking wow I didnt know Kerri sings! I don’t. I actually made these for listening to while meditating. Its scripture with music. So back to the phone call. One of the Cd’s made it to a bookstore via someone bringing in their copy and used it in a trade in. Well this woman found it in the used shelves and bought it brought it home and shared it with her sister. They were so blessed that they tracked me down. When she finally got ahold of me she was so pleased and asked if I had any more. I said I did I had made 3 altogether. She was ecstatic! It got me all excited again. I always felt God wanted me to make at least 2 more. Well Mark found them on the computer after much searching. He found some of my first photographic forays into flower photography and used them to make covers for the Cds. He just finished them and I am so blessed.

Here are Volumes 1-3
Vol.1 is Comfort & Hope Vol 2. Temptation and Discipline  Vol. 3 Verses of Love 

I hope to make more in the future as I find time to outline the others. Wohoo! 

Anyway isnt that just a trip!? Now to find the lady’s phone number to tell her I have them done!     

Some quick shots to show you…
