I recently had the pleasure of taking photographs at a concert for The Michael Morales Rockstar Academy.  I have to say, I was so inspired.  I was inspired by live music, which I haven’t been to in ages.  I love live music.  I was also inspired by kids who are following their passion.  We could all learn a little something from kids, right? :)  Here are a few images of a few different acts.

You don’t have to have the typical background and cheesy smiles!  :)

I can’t wait to see what Meghan Boyer, Maryland Lifestyle Photographer has for us!

Go check out what Misty Setzler has for winter.  Even though we are both in Texas, her winter’s are much different from mine!  Then you’ll want to check out Everything Bloom to see what’s going on this week.  Have a wonderful New Year’s weekend!

Next up in our circle is the amazingly talented Liza Hall.  Make sure you follow all the photographers’ links to check out all the interpretations for the week.  And then hop on over to Everything Bloom to see what the other groups are doing.  HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

He got into the hot cocoa and then while the kids were at school he actually made it and drank it :)

I hope you are all having a wonderful Christmas season.  Enjoy it!

And, since I’ve been sick, I’m still playing catch up and trying to get ready for a birthday party this weekend.  So this is what my kitchen looks like right now!  The dishes on the left are dirty and the ones on the right are clean (and there’s even clean dishes in the dishwasher).  Can you believe I’m even posting this and admitting what my kitchen looks like?  Sheesh!

Well, now you can go see what kind of goodness all the other ladies have posted.  Go see Meghan Boyer, Maryland Lifestyle Photographer.  Her images are always yummy!  And check out all the cool things happening over at the Everything Bloom blog!  Have a wonderful weekend.
