Project 2 {Project Future}

My husband is my best friend.  We enjoy evenings with no tv and dinners together with great conversation.  The talks of the new year have all been about our future.  This week's image is a cocktail napkin from a dinner a while ago.  Note taking and list making is one of my favorite things to do.  We were sharing our knowledge and philosophy of education over a few drinks.  I would love to be a fly on the wall to watch the giggles, smiles, and butterflies that he gives me every time we are together!

Project 1/52 {Project First to Bed}

Here it is...image one out of fifty-two!  I am excited to share my weekly photography project with you! My favorite image from each week will be posted here with a witty name...
Project _________.  

Of course Winston gets to start the show.  He runs the show around here, right? lol  (for new followers, Winston is our only child, or Jack Russell Terrier!)

We had just put new sheets on the bed and made the bed and not just *maybe* five minutes later I go back into the room and Winston had left his new favorite toy on the bed.  I know for sure this is JRT speak, leaving something there to tell us he was the first to lay on the neatly-made bed.  What a hoot he is!  He was no where to be found of course! He just wanted to mark his spot for later.  Love that guy!

2010 Favorites!

Wow...where did the time go? I cannot believe we are moving right along into 2011.  Seems like the 1900s were just yesterday! 

With hillary d photography, Josh and I have been so blessed to have such great clients.  I tried to go through my galleries and pick a few favorites. 

*spur of the moment New Years resolution* 

make a template of more than 15 favorites to share before the end of 2011!  

 A few highlights that I can name quickly this year were the Amarillo College Suzuki String students, Amarillo High School Orchestra banquet, part of the Senior Classes of 2010, junior high slumber parties, Pet Portraits in the Park, 1980s UN-GlamourShots, Holiday Mini sessions, 
and Holiday Portraits at le Chateau Pet Resort.


A sincere thank you to everyone 
that was involved with 
hillary d photography in 2010!

Thanks to a friend, Ronda, we were introduced to the wonderful people at

Le Chateau Pet Resort in Amarillo.  

Our furbaby, Winston, just fell in love with the daycare at 

Le Chateau immediately!  They offer so many fun, and spoiling services for your babies that have four legs!  They have condos for cats and playgroups for pups.  Winston knows the road trip to Le Chateau now.  As soon as we turn onto Coulter off of Arden Road, he jumps up at the window wanting to hang out!  That right turn onto 77th off of Coulter is what really gets him excited!  He KNOWS where we're are headed then!  The scenic drive down 77th is always a chore for the driver in our car!  We have to keep W from jumping out of the window, while he cannot contain his enthusiasm for his friends at his playgroup! 

Join us at Le Chateau on the 6th for some pet portrait fun!  

Have an afternoon off while your four-legged babies hang out with friends in their gym! 

Gorgeous Kiddos [Amarillo Family Photographer]

The M family is always so great to work with! Such cool kids! I am so happy I will be able to watch these two grow up to be a beautiful young lady and a handsome young gentleman.
