Miguel and I, as well as my Mom and Dad, are all trying to stay faithful to the low carb lifestyle. Over the Valentine's Day weekend we all went a little crazy and fell off the wagon. But we are back on with full force.
Just now, my Baby surprised me with bringing me the low carb burger from Carl's Jr. How sweet! It was really good just to see his face in the middle of the day. We both think it's really unfair that our jobs keep us away from each other during the day. We wonder why we can't just get paid to love each other. The most favorite part of our day is getting home and spending half an hour just kissing and cuddling and drinking each other's presence in as much as possible. Anyways, it was so nice and thoughtful of him to come by and bring me lunch since he knew I didn't take a lunch today. What a sweet husband I have! I'm so thankful.
I love you Baby. You are my life.

Adventures in Deviled Egg Land
Ok, I just made that up. But I've been meaning to post these for awhile. It seems every project, holiday, gift, pet, or person is now subject to a random photo op. So without further ado I give you......my first attempt at making deviled eggs. Miguel said they were way salty, but I thought they were fabulous. At least they look fabulous.
Heart Shaped Yumminess
Here are a few pictures of the cookies I made for Miguel for Valentine's Day. I have yet to take a few moments to set up a shoot for all the cool and nifty gifts he got me. But they are all so colorful that I absolutely have to! I promise I'll do it soon for all my faithful readers....Mama...
Photography is so great! Now everything turns into a photo op!!!

Feliz Dia De San Valentin...
I am one of those many women who love Valentine's Day. It is Valentine's Day in our house every single day though, so what makes this day any more special than the rest? Nothing. Nothing makes it more special than every day we come home from work and drop what we're holding and fly to the bed and "do the cuddlies"; Oliver following shortly behind us. This day is just a great excuse to buy heart shaped chalk candy with funny and romantic phrases written on them...well, most of them anyways.
I feel sorry for those people I've heard say "Oh this day is just a commercial trap to empty people's pockets and steal our sanity. If you really love someone you'll love them 365 days a year and not need ONE day to prove it." I feel sorry for these people because I can't help but think that they WISH they could love this day and spend it with someone who cherishes them beyond belief. Miguel and I jump on any chance to show each other how much we care, so Valentine's Day is such a great way to do that.
Miguel and I were so excited to share with each other what we had come up with for each other that we opened everything last night. It was like Christmas morning in our house! And let me tell you, the tears were flowing....on my part. Miguel calls me Mary Magdalene because I cry at the drop of a hat. But I will have to post pictures of his gifts tomorrow since it is already dark outside and I have no nice lighting inside our house.
Today I am posting pictures I took on my lunch break the other day. I had set up the scene the day before and got out my camera and realized I had forgotten to charge my battery. Doh! So Friday afternoon I snapped these in the afternoon light. I am quite pleased that some of the things I'm learning have actually sunk in. Of course I'm no professional yet, but I feel I'm getting more of a grasp on photography basics.
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
