Photo of the Day - January 17-21, 2011

I recently decided that I need to take out my camera for more than just client shoots, weddings and snapshots of my kids.  I needed to get back to shooting for myself.  My goal is to practice some new skills and pick up my camera everyday.  And so was born "Photo of the day".  Here are my photos for this week along with the stories that go along with them.

Last week was my 30th birthday.  I know...I'm old.  I bought these flowers and just loved how they looked when I arranged them in a glass.

You know when you have a day when you just need something sweet.  This was one of those days.

I'm very involved with a charity in honour of my neice.  We sell these to raise awareness for Angelman Syndrome and to raise funds for an accessible playground.

Maria picked these flowers out at the market.  You'll notice she's checking out her reflection in the mirror on the opposite wall.

William was playing in the window with my kitchen utensils.  I couldn't resist.  He's just too cute with his big eyes.
