GOOD NEWS!!!! Bella returned my sisters car keys and her daddy will not be grumpy on Christmas because he had to pay $100 to get new keys (please see comments from my Monday’s With Bella Post). Yayyyy Bella! Actually, it was really wierd. Sara was cooking dinner last night and she said Bella came in the kitchen with keys (Sara didnt really pay attention to which keys) and she said “oh no little missy, you’re not getting a hold of anymore keys!” and she went and put them on the table. Well, later that night Ryan asked Sara where she found her keys…Sara said she hadn’t found her keys…Ryan said, “then why are they on the kitchen table?” SO Bella had handed Sara the keys earlier, but Sara didn’t realize they were the missing keys!!! That little stinker!!! It’s like she decided the game wasn’t fun anymore and just decided to give them back. I will always wonder where she hid them. I will probably think about it all day today…I seriously searched their entire house. oh well!
Sooooo the past two weeks have been those type of weeks where you feel like you can’t catch up, you forgot to return that email, you had to redo a letter plaque because you got paint on it, your phone is acting like it’s on crack, you realize you don’t have any clean clothes, you understand what over extending yourself means, the only thing you have in your apartment 100 calorie snack packs because you already ate all the good stuff, you get really annoyed with really healthy people real quick, you realize the reason you have no food is because your never home so you haven’t been to the grocery store in about 2 months, you thank God that you are never home because that means your business is busy, you realize you forgot to return emails to friends requesting dinner or lunch dates, you are so excited for Christmas that you can hardly work on anything else, your editing pile refuses to shrink, you realize you really need to start working out again but working out takes time away from editing so you settle on just not eating a few meals here and there…that will work, right? ;)…you decide it’s okay because you haven’t gained any weight…but then you remember that you were wanting to lose weight…., you had plans of going to the store and getting real food to make real, healthy meals and then you say “screw it!” and order Imo’s, you finally discover that your elliptical machine did not get stolen…it was just hidden under all your summer clothes that need to be put away, you call your siblings and make them put their children on the phone because you think talking to toddlers is a blast, you keep putting off touching up your gray hairs, you spend 95% of your day on the computer and about 30 minutes of that day is spent on Facebook because it sucks you in and then you feel like crap because you just spent 30 minutes on Facebook when you should have been editing and on and on.
But then I think about it all again and I decide people think about things way too much and they usually forgot how to just enjoy life and be cute. Be cute like all the people I see through my camera :) I spent the next 45 minutes looking through past photo shoots and I’ve reaffirmed my obsession with cuteness, sassiness, feet and hands. People really are naturally cute and sassy… some people just hide it deep down and it’s hard to bring it out. But when they do, it’s always everything I’ve always thought it would be and more :) It might require an alcoholic beverage or two, but you gotta do what you gotta do! Most of the time I have to try and bribe it out, but it’s usually when they are laughing at themselves and how stupid they feel…that’s when I get the pictures I like. So here are some “people being all cute” pictures. If you haven’t noticed, I always pay attention to their hands and feet. I firmly believe that what people do with their hands and feet (when their not thinking about it), says a lot about how they feel :)
They’re cute….
I LOVE how she is grabbing their toes :)
I remember hiding behind my dad when I was little & shy. This was actually when another little boy showed up for his shoot and Briley decided to be all shy (even though she knows him). oh man I just love it! So cute and curious :)
This picture is priceless!!! If you know Jackson and Ellie…then you know what I mean :) Little Lincoln has no idea what he’s in for. Actually, he absolutely loves these two and he get’s really excited when they’re around.
My mom and I are in love with this picture. His pigeon-toed foot is what seals the deal :)
CUTE !
This picture makes me laugh because they were talking about how the “arm around each other” picture is what they call the Buddy Pose. So I made them do it :) The whole time they kept saying, “Hey, buddy!” and laughing, but I think they got some really cute pictures out of it.
I had them discuss their wedding colors :)
oh man! Here is the picture that gets me every time. Sooooo many thoughts pop into my head. Papa really loves his babies, his stroke and how lucky we are, how awesome he is, how he really is the best dad ever, if my kids will know him as well as Jackson and all the others do, how lucky we are to have so many grandbabies in our family, how much him and my mom love being Grandma & Papa, how much we love being smart a$*’s around each other :) and I could go on and on. But you get the picture :)
Ellie loves her baby brother so so so much. Just look at her chubby little hands being so gentle and careful with him. awwww.
who doesn’t love a sassy pair of heals?? and yellow at that! If you don’t own a pair…go get some pronto!
This picture makes me laugh for so many reason. 1- i was trying to take engagement pictures of Kaitlin & Zane, but it turned out looking like a family picture, 2- Ellie is being so dead serious about her flower girl job and she held those flowers like it was nobody’s business 3-it was absolutely freezing and no one has on coats, 4- Zane is trying really hard to keep Briley happy 5- this will be Kaitlin and Zane in about a year :)
I love this next set! These are pictures I took of Kaitlin & Zane this past summer before their wedding. This is a perfect example in which drinks were needed in order to be this cute. Zane might have been tipsy, but he did it and he was funny in the process. It was a win win situation for everyone :)
So now I will go back to working and you can go be cute :)
P.S.- Make sure you check out my previous post about Christmas orders!

Keep thanking God each & every day for that talent.
Allison says
were we supposed to read into that comment of Kaitlin and Zane “being here in about a year”
missprissiness says
No- you weren’t. That’s just generally the way it goes in our family.
Allison says
Are my pictures almost finished? :) You know since you have all of this free time to post past shoots…(jk)
missprissiness says
are you kidding me??? I will hit delete on your ENTIRE picture file…don’t put it past me :)
Allison says
Aren’t I hilarious!
Kathy says
I love you guys!
missprissiness says
I love you too :) But I thought I should probably point out that there are two different Allison’s commenting on this post. Allison Tonsing (Braun) was the one joking with me about finishing her pictures…because she is mean, ha!
Beth H. says
Lissy, you are so funny and CUTE! I love your blog, especially this post. It totally cracked me up. I love how you describe your thought process, I can totally relate! Way to keep it real! You are so talented and I wish you the best of luck and success!
Barb Abernethy says
I am going to say the keys were either “deep” in the toy box or they were just always in an obvious place and Bella was thinking “duh….why can’t you see them?”.
We are looking forward to Kelsey’s senior pics next weekend and I will send you the pictures of the outfits tomorrow or Monday. A couple casual, a couple of fun. Kelsey is worried that she’s not a good “poser” but I am sure they will be great!
See you Saturday!
