“He opened the jar of pickles when no one else could. He was the only one in the house who wasn’t afraid to go into the basement by himself. He cut himself shaving, but no one kissed it or got excited about it. It was understood when it rained, he got the car and brought it around to the door. When anyone was sick, he went out to get the prescription filled. He took lots of pictures … but he was never in them.”

Father’s Day is almost here, can you believe it?  I better figure out something good since I will be in Denver at a photography workshop on Father’s Day this year…AND it is our anniversary, too!  Oops!  :)   Maybe this cool custom Daddy Tag Necklace?  LOVE it!  I asked hubby and he did, too.  It has a manly, dog-tag feel to it just for the man in your life.  Women get to wear necklaces with the names of our kiddos on them, carrying them close to our hearts.   Don’t you think your hubby would want to do the same?

So, with that in mind, Sophia Pip is generously giving away one of these handcrafted necklaces to one lucky winner (the giveaway necklace will have one customized tag–a $42 value!!!).

More teasers to come!!!

We had oh-so-much fun this weekend at the photo shoot for Finley + Oliver’s newest collection.  Six kiddos under the age of five, an uber-fab location (check out the chicken and those huge grapefruits!!!) and fun clothing made for an amazing morning.  Our {mod babe} contest winners were absolute naturals in front of the camera and I just wanted to squeeze them both they were just that cute!!  They both have the most stunning eyes, don’t you think?  I adore the newest tees and girl’s tunics from Finley and Oliver–they are so comfy and perfect for your little one to play around in or for a photo shoot.  They are so versatile.  Thank you to everyone for a wonderful morning–more sneakie peekies to come!  ;)
