love in a belly

And who doesn't love belly shots? I had so much fun with my friend's belly shoot. It went pretty well although it was so hot out there, but we managed to make some good memories for the new parents to be. =) More photos of this shoot on my other page.

It is always an indescribable feeling 

expecting the arrival of that little precious being 

for any new parent.

the rose garden

This is one of those places that I love to visit whenever I get the chance to. Every time I make it here it's like escaping somewhere far and the drive is only 15 minutes from home. I love it's peaceful atmosphere but the the heavenly and sweet fragrance of this beautiful and captivating place is what keeps me coming back.
My mom came with me for the first time the other day and she loved it. Just the feeling of being surrounded by so many gorgeous flowers makes any one's spirit sing with joy.

Since I was behind on my 52 week project, I decided to catch up today by posting one more photo.
This one was supposed to get done before valentines day, but things always get on the way- so I thought why not still upload a photo that resembles L♥VE, right?  After all, every day is love day... we all need love in order to breath better in life.

happiness...

To me happiness is... having my mom and my daughters always by my side.

It is a dream come true and prayers answerd to have my mom living very close to me now,

instead of 500 miles away. I feel thankful & very blessed!

Dreams...

my little pocahontas....

can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
(I know, cheesy right)lol.
Well, the reason behind the title is because my daughter was born around the time when the Disney movie of Pocahontas came out. So for her 2nd birthday, can you guess what her party theme was? That's right, Pocahontas! I sometimes called her (when she was a baby) my little Pocahontas because of her copper skin and beautiful soft hair. :)

Every time I look at this beautiful shot of my girl, for some reason I relate it to the movie character of Pocahontas. And the other thing I love that makes it look so interesting is that beautiful out of focus background. For this shot, it looks like we went somewhere far, but in reality we were at a nearby neighborhood with some pretty dry grass and a lovely pond.

winter love with my loves....

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be.
Now put foundations under them.

today I woke up to a winter wonderland ♥ 

Chirstmas....

a wonderful time to celebrate with family & friends...

there's no better place like home for the holidays.....

Welcome to my home! By request, here's a peek at what my home looks like this year for Christmas. At least, this year we'll celebrate merrily. Last year was a little sad because my mood got stolen by that horrible Grinch, but I knew I was not going to let that happen again this year. I always have to have a natural tree, because I grew up smelling the lovely pine scent and I am not willing to give that up for a fake one. Sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings. :) I also joined this linky party called the Christmas Tour of Homes 2010 at The Nester. Be sure to stop by and visit some of the homes that are being featured there. I got lucky I made it, being the last one.... like always, late for every party! Anyways, let's not forget that Jesus is the real reason for the season. Let's celebrate with joy in our hearts for the promise of salvation. May your Christmas be filled with lots of Love, joy and happiness!! Bienvenidos a mi hogar! Por la petición de algunos, así es como mi casita se ve este año para las fiestas Navideñas. Por lo menos este año celebraremos con mas alegría ya que el año pasado el ánino mio se lo robó el Grinch, pero yo no iva a permitir que eso pasara nuevamente este año. Siempre me ha gustado los pinos de verdad y no lo cambiaría por uno artificial. (Perdonenme si les hiero los sentimientos a alguien). :) No nos olvidemos de Jesús que es la verdadera razón de la ocasión. Celebremos con regocijo en nuestros corazones por la promesa de la salvación. Que tu Navidad esté llena de mucha alegría, amor y gozo!! Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift! 2 Corinthians 9:15
