March 14, 2008 by desireehayes

I just hit “go live” on my new website so my old one might be jacked up for a while until it goes live.  Just thought I’d throw a head’s up!  It should be live within 36 hours.  I also have ANOTHER new blog! HAHA  I wanted bigger pictures and I wanted it hosted on my website so here is the new link: http://www.desireehayesphotography.com/blog/It was designed by the fabulous Holly McCaig from Pink Ink Studios.  She did my new splash page too!  Thank you Holly, you rock!

Weather if finally getting warm again!  WOOT!  Not a huge fan of winter…so bring on the sun! LOL Anyways (yeah I ramble…sorry) decided to hit up an ice cream shop on the way home from picking up Jevin from school.  Here is one of the little ice cream monsters (the other ice cream monster is in a picture hating phase which is why you dont see him often these days.) img_1328resized.jpg

March 3, 2008 by desireehayes

Yesterday morning Denise Kramer (of Wine Country Photography) and I met up for coffee.  We are working on a new project together (info coming soon!) and decided to run around and take some goofy shots of each other.  Denise, you rock!  More to come….here is the first batch…ahahaimg_1153resized.jpg

Killing time at starbucks

February 29, 2008 by desireehayes

I took Jevin to school this morning and while waiting for his awards thing we had about half hour to spare so we went and got some goodies at Starbucks (thanks again Levi and Kelsey for the gift card! Smooch!)  I chose fruit and Daphne chose cookies of course.  When she saw grapes were in my bowl she decided to steal them all.  img_1063resized.jpgThe bucket of fruit is kind of weird because the grapefruit overtakes all the other fruit.  So the grapes taste like grapefruit, the pineapple tastes like grapefruit…they should just sell a bowl of grapefruit and save themselves some packaging time. LOL Daph was not thrilled with “grapefruit grapes” so she proceeded to spit them all over the table.  She ended up happy with her cookie choice.  LOL 

Peek-a-boo!  She likes the under the table shots. HAHA

Go Jevin!

February 29, 2008 by desireehayes

Today Jevin got the science award at school.  His teacher was praising him for his “very inquisitive mind.”  My husband and I were laughing about that because sometimes the question after question after question is enough to make you crazy.  I find myself saying  ”I dont know, Jevin” like 14 times a day.

Weekdays at our house

February 27, 2008 by desireehayes

Look a little something like this…….

Messy:

img_0992resized.jpg

 The video game boy (see, he’s totally fine with getting his picture taken IF it can be where and when he deems fit. LOL )  Oh and SOMEONE taught him to notice that there is a “hot chick” (his words, not mine!) on the video game.  Every time he gets to that part he comes and shows me “I got to the hot chick!” and laughs hysterically because he I tell him “you are FIVE!  You arent supposed to talk like that!” 

img_1001resized.jpg

Apparently we like to jump on the bed.  Oh and we like polka dots.  LOL  We detest that bed skirt though…..hideousness at it’s finest.  LOL (Hint, hint….Jon…read this…build us a bed…if you dont…I’ll have to hit up Ikea!) And please remember….it has been cold here…..hence the pasty white legs. HAHA 

img_1033resized.jpg

and the outtakes (a little too much spinning for Daph, she collapsed.)
