A Can of Worms

My co-worker showed me the new Miley Cyrus music video today-- Can't be Tamed.

Apparently there has be controversy about it it. Mainly her outfits, but I would venture to say it's probably more about the subject matter and the dancing.

Disney Girl Gone Wild? I tend to think she's getting a little older, and is wanting to express herself as a young woman apart from the sweet as pie persona of Hannah Montana. I actually think that the video itself has an interesting concept and is well done, but I'm curious to see how parents of young girls who idolize Miley will will react. Any thoughts?

Whole Foods coming to the OKC!

Holler!! I am soooo excited! Buzz about Whole Food coming to OKC has been wafting through my workplace the past few months, but saw this News 9 story, so you heard it from them, not me!

This is seriously going to hurt my grocery budget.

Now They're Giving Away a Kelly Moore Bag!

So my last post was about the givaway for the workshop. Everyday they're doing a new giveaway for the day, and then each day you enter for the giveaway you're put in the BIG giveaway for the workshop. My last blog they were giving away a UNO resource, which looked cool, but I was more interested in the workshop.

Well NOW they are giving away a Kelly Moore bag. I've talked about them on this blog before, they look fabulous. And I wasn't going to annoy you with another blog post entry, but if I didn't win the workshop spot, the bag would be a nice consolation prize!

But here's the question of the day: If I were to win, which color would I choose, the grey or the yellow?? I'm so indecisive, what do you think??

I'm leaning toward the yellow because it is so fun, but the grey is pretty classic. Any suggestions? You can go check out the Kelly Moore site, they have some really nice bags for guys, too, wouldn't Ryan look cute with this one:

Fingers and Toes Crossed!

For about a year, I have REALLY been wanting to go to a photography workshop. I've been yearning to connect with other photographers, specifically women photographers, and to learn from others and get little tips from people who are more experienced than I am. I am not prideful, I will take advice from anyone who has life experience on me.

But usually these workshops are pretty pricey because they include hotel time, dinners, etc. Plus, many of them are far away, so it's hard to get the time off to travel. So the past year I have been focusing on buying equipment and have put a workshop on the side burner until next year.

BUUUUTT one of the bloggers that I follow, Davina  that I follow (who has great articles and interviews about women in photography) is hosting a workshop with 3 other talented ladies called Love Affair,  and they are running a contest for a seat at their next in DALLAS! With in a hop, skip and a jump from the OKC! And by blogging, I get an entry. So here it is. Wish me luck! And you can try, too (even though I would be insanely jealous if you won :) Check out http://www.loveaffairworkshop.com! They’re giving away prizes & a seat to their workshop on the blog this week! Go enter to win

And because no blog is fun with out a pic, here are some sweet little toes of our friend JJ's baby.

Best Evening Ever!

When I got out of work, this is who was waiting for me in my car:
And this is who the table I came home to:
My husband knows me well:
And what was playing when I walked in the door (Miles Davis):
This was the new necklace from Traci I was wearing:
These pretties were from the wedding last night that I got to bring home. They took up almost every vase I had:
 

And this was my tasty meal:
Prepared by my yummy husband :)
Who gave and planted these pretty flowers to grow on the pergola:
And the best of your birthday-- you can wear whatever you want:
And now we are 22 minutes into the Blind Side ad we are both already crying.
