Witches Tea Party

Every year my friends Claudia and Julie host a "Witches Tea Party". This year it was eight of us and lost of delicious things with plenty of Halloween decor.

I was "Flora" for the party, that was my Witch name...

Montage~Deer Valley, Utah

This month for David's birthday

we stayed at the Montage Resort in Deer Valley.

 We had a wonderful time and the place was beautiful

with breathtaking views of the valley.

No detail was left out when designing this resort,

it really offers everything,

 but the most appealing for me is that sense of peacefulness... 

and tranquility..at least for now.

Pretty soon it will have their busy season

...ski season.

Utah Latinos Vol II

This year my picture and Bio 

were included in the Utah Latinos Vol II.

 A sort of photographic essay of a small group of Latinos.

This site is dedicated to celebrating
the Latino spirit by showcasing a small number of Utahns
 who have contributed

to the state of Utah

in an effort to bring about greater awareness of the role played by Latinos in our culture. 

 A great accomplishment in my professional life.

Girls...

As soon as I see the girls talking and relaxing in our patio

I'm outside with my Nikon...

I'm learning about angles and natural light ,

 it is really so much that can be done with the right lens. Beautiful daughters

are a great inspiration for photography.

Ladies retreat 2011

This week is my retreat with my girly friends.

 This is with our group of ladies that I've been scrapbooking and card making for about 15 years,

 we started our retreat 4 years ago.

First for a weekend,

 then we added a day and this year we are going for 5 days...

We are going up to a cabin in Tabiona, Utah. 

 We are leaving Wednesday morning and our first stop will be Archivers in Orem, from there to Midway for a bit of more fun shopping and then to our final destination.

 This picture is of my little project that I'm bringing for all the ladies to make,

 it goes in a square black frame,

makes a darling gift..
