These are a few of my favorite things.

Kudos to the person who coined the word "tablescape".  What a great concept and creative outlet.  I have all of these objects that I love and now I can put them together in creative ways and make them into art.  This is my first one.  Ta Daa!  It definitely incorporates some of my favorite things (just like the song), china, seashells, rocks, crystal, light blue, and two of the beautiful nosegays my mom made.  Aren't they loverly?  Yes, I am a big fan of My Fair Lady.   Anyway, hope you enjoy the first of many to come.  By the way, I am a very amateur photographer but hopefully I will get this lighting thing down with practice. 

One of My Favorite Places on Earth....

that I have been to is Williamsburg in Virginia.  Unofrtunately I was not able to go on this particular trip but my brother took some amazing photos.  Here are a few favorites.

Please Allow Me to Introduce.....

Emma (on the right) and her best friend Lady Jane.  Emma is a very precocious bear of eight years of age.  She has very sophisticated taste for a bear so young.  Both bears enjoy having tea, listening to classical music, reading Winnie-the-Pooh repeatedly, I believe for the 58th time,watching the Travel Channel, and planning their first trip "across the big pond" to Europe.  They haven't quite decided whether to make their first stop Buckingham Palace or to go directly to Paris.  However, given their ages they have some time to decide.  To indicate their commitment as BFF's they both wear a strand of pearls.

Forecast: Cloudy with a Chance of Excitement

When a thunderstorm is rolling in, it makes for a dramatic photo, don't you think?

One (Ocean Picture) Crazy Summer

One summer, my kids and I spent almost every day at the beach and I became obsessed with taking pictures of the ocean. My favorite times to take pictures were right before a storm and at dusk. When the waves were high, it was a lot of fun to snap pictures like crazy and then go home to view them and see how they turned out. Hope you enjoy.
