PPI Fall Conference 2008

Just got back from the 2008 PPI conference held at the Holiday Inn in DSM. I am always amazed at the amount of knowledge & talent that is out there!!! Sheessh, OVERWHELMING!! I have tons to learn & am very humbled by it all!

I am very excited, all 4 of my prints were nominated (is that even the correct way of sayin' it?)

2 honorable mentions:

Then these 2 received a 3rd & a 2nd place! I'll take it! I was REALLY stoked when the judges told me that these next 2 prints were actually tied for 1st!! OH well, i'll still take that!! YEAH!!

Just wanted to share my excitement!! Thanks!!!

Miss Maggie!

Here is Maggie Weltha, one of Winterset's beautiful seniors! We had a lot of fun & i drove her all over the country side! Thanks Maggie!!

A few of my sistas!

We just had a little get-together at my step-mom's house last Sunday, & here are a few shots of our time together! I'm the dork in the middle! My beautiful sister Jen is on my left & the other beauty is Rebecca!

These little girls are Jenna ok, sorry Jenna, you're not so little! (Jennifer's daugther) & Angela (Rebecca's daughter!) who IS only 5, so she does qualify as "little!"

Here's a few from Jen's son Jimmy's 16th birthday party...

These 2 goofballs are my son Jake (in front) & my nephew Caleb, doing the egyptian in the background!

Jake looking stunned that he has his adorable cousin Emily on his back!!

Becca & Angela "excercising"! TAG, you're it!

This is my hunny bunny of 19 years, dream weaver! Ok, his real name is Brian.

The Boys looking very GQ!
