Keeping up with the holiday schedule!

Hi!

We're back from New York! We had an awesome little getaway filled with fun, food and fab shopping... i, of course, snapped all kinds of cool pictures to scrapbook...
(um, i suppose i can catch up on that sometime while i'm sleeping - right!?!? ...lol)

Thought i'd let everyone know that the fall limited edition is almost filled up!!

Friday, the 17th has a few spots open... 11:30, 12:30 & 1:30

and Saturday, the 18th only 10:30 & 1:30 are open!

so anyone that's interested needs to act fast ;)

they wont be open for long...

also. watch for our Holiday Limited Edition posts coming up.

we've already started booking...

(people are just on top of things this year... hallelujah!!)

no body even knows what the backgrounds are going to look like!

HA! don't you just love it?!

Nov 1st we're planning our "Formal Christmas"

so think fun Christmas attire or cutie patootie PJ's

Nov 8th will be our "Snow Day!" or "Snow Angels"

(back by popular demand)

so start pulling out the cool hats and scarves...

oh... and don't forget the mittens too :)

those are always so cute!!

If you already know that your wanting to schedule for either of these days... i wouldn't wait.

give me a call 225.603.4414 or email me cherish@cherishedportraits.com

and let's go ahead and take care of that... i have a feeling that some will not be able to get in.

and of course i want everyone to get the "best times" for the little ones...

...attempting to capture a "happy baby" in the middle of nap time isn't usually my idea of fun ;)

here's a few pictures from the New York trip! i really do have SO MANY that i wanna post.

i'm really having to hold myself back!

(we spent a day in Pennsylvania too, driving through the Amish Country...

...and marveling at the simplicity that they live in.

here's one of the favorites)

(love this one with the skyline... click on the image to veiw larger)

(catching up on some MUCH NEEDED yoga time)

(before lunch @ Serendipity we walked through Central Park and stopped to take a few pics... love this one)

(Dinner @ Buddakan with my lovely Auntie Myra & Uncle Drew ~ aka the best people to tour the city with!)

Thanks Auntie M & Drew for showing us such A WONDERFUL TIME! really, ya'll ROCK!

things that make me, me.

I AM … so blessed.
I WANT… to sleep for an entire day and not feel bad about it.
I HAVE … a lot of things that I enjoy doing.
I KEEP … the fridge stocked with sugar free red bull and string cheese.
I WISH I COULD …make myself be a morning person.
I HATE … to drive in the rain.
I FEAR … I forget to make time for the important things.
I HEAR … the music that’s always in my head.
I DON’T THINK … that I’ll ever be able to wake up and make the bed regularly.
I REGRET … that I don’t work out like i should.
I LOVE … russ & all of the little quirky things that make him, him. Chili’s chocolate molten lava cakes. When I walk in the door and here “cherry!!!!” from little voices.
I AM NOT … going to be upset about not being able to sleep in tomorrow. or the next day, or the next.
I DANCE … not often enough.
I SING … really, really loud. Like, all of the time. Not only when I’m by myself.
I NEVER … watch commercials, thanks to our trusty tivo.
I RARELY … skip out on sushi.
I CRY WHEN I WATCH … other people cry. Or when I get really mad.
I’ M NOT ALWAYS … on time.
I HATE THAT … when I give blood or get a shot I always pass out. Never fails.
I’M CONFUSED ABOUT … the whole “do as I say, not as I do” rule. Who came up with that anyway.
I NEED … to make grocery shopping a regular thing.
I SHOULD … really wake up early everyday and drink coffee while watching the news or checking email. But, do I really think that will ever happen? Um. Probably not… but, what a wonderful idea.

Out of town!

We'll be out of the studio... yes, again... the 3rd - the 7th...

All calls & emails will be returned when we return.
