mimi and the girls

What's up friends?

I have been a sucky blogger lately. And I'm working on it. I had e-v-e-r-y intention of posting a delicious recipe yesterday for chicken marsala but then, well, shit happens, you know? I am feeling slightly depressed, or maybe just stressed? I'm not sure. I think I need to be taking more photos. (my poor Nikon is gathering dust). But then at the same time I dread taking photos. Maybe I need some new equipment. Or maybe I just need to obsess over some new equipment for a few days and then NOT buy it.

Yes, that sounds like the perfect solution. I think I'm going to go shop for a new Nikon D600.

saturday

My niece, Samantha is here for a few days. The girls and I went shopping today and then they played "spa" when we got home (put on masks, painted their nails, and straightened their hair). Now we're watching the Justin Bieber movie. (you guys, it's good!) We pretty much haven't seen Camden since school got out. He plays outside ALL. DAY. LONG.

So I LOVE this picture. Charlie has just (finally) started kissing!

Charlie. Wanting to go outside. He LOVES to go outside.
