{makeup} | Raleigh Child Photographer

Here is an honest confession…I am Target last night about to have a meltdown because I have to find “ruby red” blush and “ruby red” lip pencil, face powder and waterproof mascara for Julia’s dance Gala photos on Saturday. I am almost in tears in the makeup aisle trying to figure this all out. “Is this Ruby Red? No, this is Ruby Red…” … obviously I am definitely NOT a Toddlers in Tiaras kinda mom…LOL…but we did a trial run tonight of putting her makeup on and I think it came out alright. But I am in *serious* trouble in regards to her hair. I need a tube of gel and a bunch of “How to put your daughter’s hair into a bun” YouTube videos to save the day. 🙂

It’s hard to believe but this is the first year my kids have colored Easter eggs. I knew they would love it because they love doing crafts so much. I love the colors they achieved. Hope you all had a blessed Easter season.

{music} | Raleigh Child Photographer

Music was  a HUGE part of my family life growing up. I play the flute and even got a music minor in college. It was not too unusual over the years for our family to hold mini concerts with flute, piano, trumpet and french horn. I suppose it was the one common thing that brought my family together.  Just today I spent an hour with my daughter watching YouTube videos of everything from classical ballet accompanied by classical music, to jazz performers, to clips from West Side Story (a personal all-time fave). My son has taken piano lessons for over a year and my daughter wants to take violin lessons. It would give me so much joy if my kids love music as much as I do.
