(For the entire month of February I am photographing my children each day. This is a personal project dear to my heart. Thank you for stopping by!)

This is what happens when a photographer’s child is done taking photos…you end up with a photo true to their personality.

It’s time for another episode of…

+ Click it: New music…I’m really loving Jesus Culture‘s new album, listen to Rooftops or My Soul Longs!

+ Click it: New adventures…my sister and I are embarking on something amazing, something crazy and something so important to us. More on that later…yep, you’ll want to see :)

+ Click it: Florabella actions and templates. I downloaded her free Valentines cards and I’m in love! Next up is trying to get some of her actions :) I love that wispy, romantic feel to her photos. It definitely pulls at my heartstrings. Visit this link to be entered into her giveaway.

- Crop it: Sick Kids. The kids have been sick for what seems like weeks now, then their cousin got it from them and it cycled back around. The house has been at a standstill! It’s not fair that their little bodies have to endure big coughs and fever chills. One pro…they are especially cuddly.

Thanks to my amazing husband who at 1am last night helped me figure out what I wanted to call this post today…I present to you “Click it or Crop it”! So the idea is that I really enjoy posting about my favorite things of the week, and I love reading about others’ favs. But in an effort to be a little unique and not just call it “my favs” or “these things rock” or something like that, we’ll “Click” the shutter on things that we love and with the rest we’ll do our best to “Crop” out the bad and find the good in it. Finding the joy in things is very important to me, even when things around me don’t feel so great. Are you with me?? If not…oh well at least I tried :) :)

+ Click it: Pinterest…it is a really fun new website. It’s kinda like Houzz meets Etsy meets Tumblr all in one. I love any and all design sites, especially ones that you can compile your favs to come back to later. This one also lets you add clothes and other items you find interesting.

+ Click it: My 20×30 canvas from Simply Canvas that arrived yesterday. I’m so excited about it because I needed something really large to hang above my bed in our master bedroom. The canvas is of the first photo from this blog post. When I put it up in my bedroom I’ll take a pic and show how nice and big it is! (Actually, it could have been a lot bigger!)

+ Click it: Haircuts. No seriously. I don’t do a lot of things to pamper myself. I dislike pedicures and manicures, I can’t stand massages and don’t even get me going about facials. But haircuts I can do…if they are cheap and quick. I got one this week. I feel like a new woman. Really. It’s cute. You should see it.

+ Click it: Booking sessions before 2010 was even over. Talk about exciting…this year is going to be so much fun :)

- Crop it: I had to let go of sending out family Christmas cards this year. I ordered them and already had stamps and envelopes…and the time just flew past. We’ve never done that before. So if I received a card from you, and you should have had one in return…I apologize. I seriously had to take a second and just let it go.  There is always next year! The good in it? The cards were free and I saved stamps?? :)

*Thanks for stopping by! If you post a list of your clicks & crops, come back and let me know!
