things Elisha has learned about life

If I eat too much cheese cake, I feel sick.

I think my husband is a rock star.

If I don’t get my tea in the morning, I morph into a monster.

I like to talk about photography… alot… all the time.

My sisters think I’m a little odd.

I think my husband is super man.

I like weddings.

I shoot people for a living.

If I dance too much, my face will look like a tomatoe.

Too much nitrogen makes chamomile grow.

Helicopters are exhilarating.

Writing takes deep personal reflection.

It rains in Oregon. A lot.

Getting $6,000 + and going to David Beckstead’s workshops in Idaho would be a miracle.

My husband is amazing.

I like photographing weddings.

Helicopters, beach, food & a movie…what could be a better birthday?

Yesterday Elisha, Chantel and I went to Seaside for Chantel’s birthday. It was awesome! All of us took our first helicopter ride, ate good food at the Old Spaghetti Factory, and saw Harry Potter. How many cool things can you fit in one day?

Us in front of our Bell Jetranger chopper!

Food’s up!

The idea came around when Ian and I concocted a crazy dinner tonight – we’d been planning it for weeks, and we finally found the time to get it together. When we finished, we realized that we should capture our masterpiece in all it’s glory – with a photograph! So, enjoy our baked chicken stuffed with feta, Parmesan, fresh spinach and sun-dried tomatoes…mmm! Recipe available on request.

me with the dirty dish…eww.
