merry 2010. + happy 2011.

2011 is here.  The years sure do fly by faster as we get older.  Yes Mom, you were right.  hehe.

Here is a bit of my crew over the holidays.  Gotta love 4 kids…I cannot get them all to sit still.  Oh and you will never guess who the 2nd most difficult is!  ha.

2011 will be bringing all sorts of fabulous over at White Linen…I know we keep talking about it…but it is going to be very much worth the wait!

enjoy.

Kylie :: Boudoir

Things have been a little quiet around here.  We are prepping for the holidays and I thought it would be fun to throw in a late November surgery, I am always trying to spice things up…hehe.  Hence, the blogging break.  Lots in the works for business goodies in the White Linen world.  2011 is going to be an incredible year!  For now, we will  focus on getting through December and catching up with 2010.

Be sure to head over to White Linen for the latest.

Of course, I cant leave you without a peek.

Fresh For Friday.

Massive Neglect.  Yes, that is what my blog is suffering from.  It is actually a good thing though.  The reason for the neglect on my personal blog is due to the major shift in focus to our joint business.  For those who are not aware (where have you been?  hehe), Michele and I have joined forces to bring you an even more fabulous level of all things photography!  Yay.  Am I excited?  Umm…I cannot even begin to tell you how thrilled I am to be taking this step!!

So, back to neglect.  In focusing on White Linen we are doing all sorts of wonderful things.  Working on the studio space, getting our thoughts in order, booking the 2011 season and … eeeeeek. … exciting … getting our BRAND together.  We found the super duper fantabulous Karrie Pyke of Posh Paperie via the equally incredible Jackie Wonders.  Oh, we are so beyond lucky to have come across such amazing people in this industry…who in turn introduce us to amazing people.  It makes me want to get all sappy and start drying puffy hearts in the air.  ha.  I am so dorky.  Although I have to admit, we wanted to keep them all to ourselves…dont judge.

As for my personal business…it is business as usual.  Michele and I will continue to run our own business’s for other bits and pieces that we do.  Of course, dont mind the odd “hey check out my super cute baby girl rockin’ the potty photo”.  Hint hint.

Yup, I warned you.  30 months old and FINALLY taking to the idea that Elmo diapers are not a permanent fixture.  I am so so very proud of my little lady, this was not an easy task!  Today is her 1 week potty anniversary and I plan to celebrate her efforts with a new pack of panties.  ha.  Life is good.

enjoy.

gamma gam - so proud of my youngest granbaby. keep up the good work isla.

Becky - I can't wait to see what you girls have up your sleeves for branding! Love following you guys on White Linen and reading about the potty triumphs on your personal blog! :)

BunkUnc - Awwwwwwww she's growing up sooooooo fast!! Let her know that Bunkers is Proud of her!!! Love ya

Lila - Love it! And no potty would be complete without a Yo Gabba Gabba sticker:)

Simone - Yay Isla! Nice new undies! Has she eaten you out of smarties yet?

rebecca sehn - Yay for White Linen and yay for potty!!!
