Auuuugggghhhhh....MISSING FINGER TIP!!!!

Okay so its actually not the whole finger tip, but somewhere between a dowel rod (see picture) and a piece of cabinetry is Mat's finger tip. He had this nice hole in his finger tip. Poor guy. It happened on Thursday while he was working and we've been doing follow up hospital visits all day today. The dowel rod went straight through his finger and into the hole in the cabinet with the glue and PINNED his finger to the cabinet piece. He had a MINOR surgical procedure to to push the bone down cause it wasn't lying flat and used a tiny stitch to minimize the exposure of the bone. They can't really close up what's not there anymore so his skin just has to grow back. I'd post a picture but I haven't gotten it yet, Phil has it. Anyhow, just posting about my poor baby.

THIS IS WHAT WENT THROUGH THE TOP OF HIS FINGER AND OUT THE OTHER END. THANK GOD IT WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO THE MUSCLE, NERVES AND TENDONS!! I'll have to post a picture of the cabinet part--he did keep that!


Well I'm off to dinner with my sisters--Olive Garden!!

Lina

Happy Birthday to Lina!! She's 17 today so I had to get at least one picture done just for her. This is my favorite of the bunch! The rest will be posted on my Sneek Peek Blog later this weekend. Enjoy!

Aren't we handsome?

Well he is at the very least. We went out a did a shoot--just the three of us. Me, him and the tri-pod. This is one of my favorites from the bunch. If you click the pic you can see some more.

Hark! A Lark! Flying through the Park!

Yahoo comes up with the best subject lines! This is my continuation to become more photographically minded. I must have sounded really interesting-- stark [adjective] in the bathtub asking for my camera. My feet and back were hurting so bad from walking barefoot and being tense while I work on sewing my first dress. Which is quite an adventure in and of itself. I promise, more thread has been undone and thrown away than actually sewn onto the dress itself. I hope it's wearable. So after this I wanted some...."relief."

Ashaleeee

Ashley is probably by far one of my most favorite people to take pictures of~she's super relaxed in front of the camera and manages to come off sahweeet! Anyhow I took all three of the beautiful ladies out the other day~ you can see their pictures here (they're totally fun to do pictures with!!!), and picked out this image to do a play out with textures, vignettes and all that jazz.

In an effort to become more blogger and photographically minded...

I've decided to participate in the 26 things challenge. Yea me!! So here are my first efforts (haha no pun intended) at my first 26 things. # 6: Effort! The backyard is being done right now and so this is my interpretation of the word. Enjoy!
