Pumpkin Patch!

Ah, my favorite time of year.  Those crispy orange and brown and yellow leaves.  Those cool temperatures.  Kids in their adorable costumes or fall outfits.  Of course, since we are in south Texas, the only way I get to experience any of these things is in the studio when we have our Pumpkin Patch event. 

This year we had a great bunch of kids.  Fun and cute as pie.  And we brought in bags and bags of food for the San Antonio Food Bank.  Thanks to everyone who participated!  The lab is processing all your orders and they should be here on Monday (although a few of you had add-ons and those will be here Wednesday). 

Here are just a few that I had a chance to resize for the web... and of course, the last one is our setup model Charlotte.  ;)  I have more coming so if you don't see your sweet baby on the blog, he or she will probably end up on the site.  We are updating slowly -- once again, we've had server issues -- but check the site for new images within the next couple of weeks.  And if you are still interested in participating in our "Night Before Christmas" event on November 2 and 3, we still have a few appointments left for Friday the 2nd.  Give us a call asap to get on our calendar!

Also keep in mind that sessions are booking up quickly for the holidays.  My weekends are booked into late November, and we are trying to work people in wherever we can but there are only so many places for wiggle room.  We DO still have weekday appointments left, and remember that I always keep a couple of appointments open during the week for newborns and last minute maternity sessions.

Rummage!

Hey, y'all.

Things are finally settling down from Christmas and I finally got to actually talk to a few of you on the phone this week -- instead of us talking to each other's voice mails.  ;)  To all of you who have called or emailed, I am catching up!

I wanted to share with y'all something I'm doing this year.  I have been working with the Junior League, and now we have finally gotten to one of our big annual events -- the Rummage Sale.  It's like a huge garage sale, but you can find some amazing pieces.  Working in the warehouse, I have already seen five or six (or seven or eight) things I MUST have for the studio, and I have also seen some great clothes and shoes and housewares items come through as well.

The date for the sale is March 1-4 at Freeman Colesieum.  BUT, as I know this is a "fresh start" cleaning out time of year, if you have some items you'd like to donate to the sale let me know.  The deadline to donate is the end of next week, so if you'd like to get things in to me I can take them to the League.  They accept clothing, furniture, kitchen stuff, appliances... just about everything.  Call me at the studio if you'd like more info.

And thanks!  I hope y'all are having a great week and enjoying this beautiful weather (and cedar laced air).  ;)
