Bienvenidos a Panamá

As a many of you know, I was in Panama for a week. I need to say that vacation time just ROCKS! The very first day I felt worried because I was doing nothing! But I got used to it pretty quickly and began enjoying my stay at the Cameron Royal Hotel. It was all food and drinks inclusive- NICE!


Panama is just gorgeous! I wish I could go every year. I thinks it reminds me PR. It's really nice, humid, rains all the time and the people are really cool. I came to realize that my family, friends and I we all are really Loud and Noisy, BUT really really funny. We don't stop laughing all the time. A lot of Fun.
Finally this is the most exciting part: I TOOK A LOT OF PICTURES!!! The places I visited were the Panama Canal, Valle de Ánton: Zoo and Termal waters + city, Penonome (city), Parara Púru Indians, Panama City Old world and New World. So if you would like to see all the pics just scroll down - we have a trip to Panama right here in Hutto, Tx.

I hope you all enjoy the pics. You will see:
  1. Panama Canal
  2. Titi Monkeys on El Nispero Zoo
  3. Kuna woman (indigenous) on Market selling Molas
  4. The Canoes to get to see the Parara Púru Indians (YES I WAS SCARED)
  5. The jewerly that Parara Puru made
  6. Parara Púru kid on his house

My Trip to Kansas

Yep, I'm a Kansas girl. Have been summarily given the nickname Dorothy on occasion and been asked, "Where's Toto?" more than a few times. I don't mind, heck- I'm proud. There's no sky bigger than a Kansas sky, no place you can get so excited about tornadoes and no place better to watch the wind blow cloud shadows across the prairie grasses. I just got back from an awesome road trip there and thought you might like to see some of my images. While it was great to see my friends and family again, I'm glad to be hard at work back in Texas!

Cabin Fever cured!

After being stuck behind the computers for weeks, we diagnosed ourselves with cabin fever and decided to find a cure. We hopped in the car and headed to a Texas town we hadn't been to yet- Fredericksburg. It is a gorgeous town with the cutest shops. We'll definitely have to go back soon and check out some of their festivals.The drive is beautiful, too with many roadside vegetable stands and artists' booths. We came across a herd of deer on the way- so pretty! And we had to stop at the Circle E Candle showroom- they have about a million scents. My nose is tired just thinking about it. Cabin Fever cured!

The Dollar Theater Rocks!

We just wanted to take a moment to say... we LOVE Cinemark 8, otherwise known as the Dollar Theater. How can you not love seeing movies for, at most, 2 bucks? If you haven't been there, you need to go. Movies on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday as well as Friday matinees are $1.50. Weekends are $2 and Wednesdays (our new favorite day of the week) are only $1. Yep, one dollar. Yeah, the movies have been out a while but if you wanna change of pace from seeing a rental on your TV at home, there's no better place. Click here to see what's playing.

Our Lastest Adventure




Hello everyone!

It was a very sunny Sunday! All the energy was there for her senior shoot! The day was perfect, the only thing was missing: GAS.

On Sunday our latest high school senior from Hutto High School, Jorden ran out of gas on the way to the studio. Right after she called, we were on our way to rescue her and have the first adventure of the day! Her shoot was amazing, everything worked just right: wardrobe, location and most Important: Jorden. This girl is a Blast and you will soon see it in her pics!

The Boardwalk on the Jersey Shore

Our friend from Hallmark (the photography school we went to, not the card company) invited us to visit her in New Jersey. We didn't get to stay long enough but she definitely showed us a good time at the boardwalk on the Jersey shore. We rode the rides, ate pizza and had so much fun that we didn't want to leave. Thanks, Angela! Come see us sometime soon!

Fall!

I woke up yesterday, opened the back door and thought to myself, what is this? Could it be.. yes, I think it is- fall! So thrilled was I that I made a cup of coffee, opened all the windows and sat watching the sunrise and thinking thoughts of tiny ghosties and goblins, frosted pumpkins and turkeys. Fall not only brings crisp morning air, cozy evenings with friends and warm apple cider, but it brings also the promise of holiday cheer and the celebration of the greatest miracle of all time. I know, I know, the weather man says it won't last, we'll be back to hot Texas summer before long. But for now, I will drink my cappuccino, light my pumpkin candle and enjoy the open windows.
