idle chit-chat, gossip and (gasp) scandals

Monica {Senior}

Monica didn't know what she was in for when we met each other for her senior pictures.  We had so much fun stomping around down town and then I got the bright idea to go over to the tall grass by Kemper Arena and take some pictures there.  We finished and two people approched me and said they saw us taking pictures and that if we wanted to stick around we could because they were getting ready to burn all the grass and it is quite a spectacle.  I asked if I could put her near it and they said they didn't care and I could do whatever I wanted.  Cool.  Well let's say it took all of about two minutes and it was done.  Monica was such a trooper because it was HOT.  I mean, so hot I had to keep looking away because it was hurting my face.  I can't even imagine what her back felt like being closer to it than I.  I wish we had more time to play with the fire, but such is life.  She rocked it.

FUN Times!!

If anybody is interested in playing some volleyball this weekend, Paul Mitchell is having their annual volleyball tournament.  Last year this baller actually played in the championship but unfortunately lost to some team that played quite well, very intoxicated.  It is a lot of fun and it all goes to a good cause!

Dani {Senior}

I am beginning to think that along with the crazy weather we have been experiencing lately that we also somehow are now going to be know as Kansas City, the windy city.  Wind, wind, wind.  I am so tired of wind!!  I just want it to be waaarrrmmm (that is my way of expressing me crying and throwing a fit).  This is just not ideal conditions to be shooting senior girls! 

This is the month of the year in which "senior frenzy" has begun.  So much to do in so little time!!  I have a lot of blogging to do so here it begins!!

This is Dani.  I once knew her when she was just a little one when Michael and I lived in good ole Tonganoxie.  It is always so fun to see people that you haven't seen in ten years and then look at them and say "WOW"!  We had a lot of fun stomping around her property and battling the wind.  And who doesn't love to end with a monster truck!!

30ish

How wonderful can a birthday start but at a hospital watching a new life come into this world.  The only thing was she came 8 minutes before my big day.  She did make it although we don't get to celebrate the big day together.  She is beautiful.  McKinnon Kaye Fireoved, 6 lbs. 14 oz., 183/4 inches long.  Life is good.

Megan {Bellies}

Oh, blog I have so neglected you and I apologize.  I really really have thought of you, but I discovered a new friend, Facebook and I have been horrible to you.  I promise to give equal time from now on.

Things are starting to look hectic again.  It is April frenzy when all hell breaks loose and seniors have put off taking their pictures and need them by May!!  It is always so much fun!  So look for some great seniors to be blogged about!!

First up is Megan.  She is due any day now and since she is my sister-in-law I have rights to post a few pictures of her and her beautiful bellie with baby McKinnon snug as a bug in a rug.  So here is a few without embarrassing her too much!
