Bella

Bella (pronounced "Bay-ya" as in the spanish word/pronunciation) is our dog. I believe I posted about her soon after we got her. She is a whippet, which is a small greyhound. I wasn't so sure about owning a dog...especially an "inside" one!! But, I've decided I like her a lot. I think we'll keep her!!! ;-)

I was trying to get some photographs for a flyer I am creating for the Brown Dog Foundation's Celebration "Pawty". I thought I'd share some of my favorites!!! (Isn't she cute!!! You may insert your own "oooohhh's" and "aaaaaahhhhh's" at appropriate moments.) :-)

Scottsdale, AZ

While I was in Arizona shooting Becca and John's wedding, I had a day to hang out in Old Town Scottsdale. I took a few pics and thought I'd share. It was my first trip to the west...I enjoyed it!! Can't wait to go back and visit another time.

Briar Lee Rickman

My cousin, Brandon, and his wife, Amy just had a baby boy. Congrats Brandon and Amy!!

Briar Lee Rickman was born May 11 at 12:45 p.m. 8 lbs, 9 oz. He is precious!! My brother, Guy, and I got to go meet him tonight at the hospital...it was great!! Amy is doing wonderfully, and it was SO awesome to see her and Brandon. I think that they are going to be awesome parents!!! I can't wait to get to see him again...

John & Becca Preview!

John and Becca were married in Scottsdale, AZ last weekend. What a fun, pretty wedding!!

I actually worked with Becca back in the day when she was in the youth group at CCC. I was so honored when she asked me to be a part of her special day. I hadn't seen Becca in, oh, about 5 years. She has grown into such a wonderful and beautiful young lady. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting her husband, John. He is funny, sweet, and totally in love with Becca...so he gets my approval!!

Enjoy a preview of their pics...
