This weeks iheartfaces photo challenge is Best Face Photo of 2011. This is one of my favorite pictures of my daughter. We had done a little back to school photo session. I brought along an apple as a prop. She kept smelling the apple and before I knew it, she dug in..all I could do was snap away. She makes me smile!!!!

Childhood

2012-01-06T14:38:00.000-08:00

"In the eyes of a child...there is joy, there is laughter... there is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future..."
Author: Air Supply

This was such a fun set of textures to create. I created this set a bit more Shabby Chic and it was a little more challenging for me I must admit. My girls helped me name some of the textures. I enjoyed their input!! For more information on "Childhood" click here.

Created using "Create" "Laugh" and "Angel" overlay.

Venice

I absolutely fell in love with Venice. We spent two days in Venice and I could of stayed a few more. We had our best meal in Venice. My son Chris found this tiny little family owned restaurant and they treated us like royalty. We stayed for hours, eating, drinking, laughing and talking with the family that owned the restaurant. What wonderful memories...
