Snow in March? {Wisconsin Photographer}

Wisconsin Senior Photographer

How about that weather?  In the midwest we are enjoying the continued visit of Mr. Winter.  I thought it was after the first day of spring already…apparently everyone didn’t get that message!  The ground is still covered with snow and frost is on my car windows in the morning.  Don’t get me wrong I love snow and winter…I live in the midwest by choice after all.  But there is a time and place for winter and right now I feel like it is stepping on Spring’s toes.

With Easter coming this weekend I have a hard time picturing myself in anything but a winter coat and sweater.  Do you remember wearing those cute little dresses with matching hats and shoes?  I ache for those warmer temps right now and these two girls know what I mean!  At least they were good sports on putting up with the cold.  It’s hard to believe that one has never experienced weather below 50 degrees!  Poor thing…I feel like someone should have warned her that Wisconsin and winter can be brutal!

Are you planning on Easter dresses or Easter sweaters?

Prince Turns 9 {Round Lake Beach IL Photographer}

Today my kitty turns 9!  Trust me I’m not some crazy cat lady, there will be no birthday party or presents given (unless you count extra kitty treats as gifts), just a little moment to think about these past 9 years with my little man.  It’s funny to think about all the lessons he’s taught me.

  • Meeting new kitties / people can be scary at first, but in the end they can turn out to be your best friend.
  • Trust his instincts on guys…I could have saved myself quite a few heart aches if I would have taken his cue and ran when a few guys came to my house.
  • Enjoy desert for your main meal.  There is always room for kitty treats.
  • Naps are a key part in life. You feel so refreshed and spunky after a little shut eye.
  • Nightly snuggles are required in any relationship to keep the love flowing.
  • He is my personal alarm clock that is not effected by power outages or vacations.
  • Find joy in the little things: glitter balls, empty boxes, sun rays, freshly cleaned bed sheets.
  • Don’t be afraid to speak up when you think you aren’t getting enough attention.
  • When mom says “No” always ask dad.
  • Everyone needs some unconditional love in their life!

Happy Birthday Prince…let’s hope for another 9 years!
