Yellow Shoe Studio

My crazy schedule the last couple of weeks has been from me traveling to Charlotte to help my sister out with painting and also a big commercial job she had at the Bank of America building downtown.  They asked her to design 4 living rooms for a leasing party they were having in their gym on the day of the NCAA tournament.  It was a big project and she needed my help!!!  Each room would have a theme...grandma, tailgate, modern, and man's room.  Each room would also be divided by big flat screen TV's.

My sister, just so you know, is an interior designer that runs her own business called "Yellow Shoe Studio"  The name came from her wearing a yellow shoe and brown shoe to church one morning and she did not realize it until she got to church.....no comment!! LOL

Anyway here are some pictures of her work the day before the event.  There were only three of us to move and set up all of this stuff.  It was fun but exhausting and only took us 8 hours!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Grandma's room

 

Modern Room

Tailgate Room with coolers and a grill as tables!

 Man's Room

This is what each client saw first when they walked into the gym!  That mirror was HEAVY!!!! 

This is me and my awesome sister on the 26th floor I think....what a view!  We were excited we were done!!!  Love you Jeanene!!!!

What a Gift From God....Newborns

So it has been forever since I last blogged!!! Sorry!!! So much as been going on but I am glad to say it has been all good!
In between my crazy life I was able to take some pictures of the new addition to the K family!! I Love newborns and how precious and little they are!! I can't get enough of newborns with hair either!!!!

So a dear friend recently gave birth to her second daughter and she let me in on their changing world to capture little "R" just 15 days old! It was nice to just hang out a little with my friend and capture some sweet pictures of her little one too. Here are my favorites...

Little "R" loves to sleep with her hands near her face or above her head and she loves being in mommy's arms!!

I love this next picture of her smiling!  Best part of newborns...being patient and waiting for an expression like this....

The last two I just love!!!  Mommy giving little "R" a sweet hug and mommy holding little "R" in her hands.  Showing just how small and precious she is and also a reflection of how Jesus holds us in His hands!!!  Thank you Karen and Kev. for letting me capture so many sweet pictures of "R" and getting another glimpse of how wonderful and amazing the gift of newborns are from God!!!
Till next time....J

Mommy Monday with Grandma "G"

I am so happy to say that I have both my grandmothers living still.  Both are in their 90's and healthy!  Why do I say that...?  Well, because I love them and also because my kids get to spend time with these two amazing women!!!
My Gandma "G" may be 92 but she acts 16.  She is a master at playing cards and you have to be aware at all times...she may try to pull a fast one on you if you are not paying attention!! LOL!  She has the best attitude and loves God, her Family, and Life!!
She is on her 4 month southern tour to see family and it is our turn to have her.  The girls love her dearly.  She plays with them and reads to them and she always has a hug and kiss for them.  So before she leaves I wanted to take some pictures of her with the girls.  Here are my favorites from our picnic adventure....

Lunch looks good!
































Grandma and Bria

 My Favorite!  She is so sweet to Grandma...priceless

The weather was prefect and the company was even better.  We will only have Grandma for a few more days so I need to play some more cards and hopefully this time I will win....Grandma seems to always figure out how to win...we love you Grandma "G"
