Happy Birthday to Me!

On Saturday I celebrated my birthday by attending a photography seminar, ALL DAY! I'm talking 13 hours of seminar! It was great. My Dad came and I met up with my photog chicks and we had a great day full of inspiration and breath taking images. On the dinner break, Dad treated me to a sushi dinner and we attended the evening program hoping to score some great prizes. We didn't win anything, but we were in awe of the main speaker, Darrel Gulin's work! This man is amazing!
He travels the world photographing all sorts of animals and people and he also grows butterflies in his kitchen for photographing! If you get a chance, check out his work, you won't be disappointed!

The kids managed to stay up until I got home. I was surprised to see Kaylum, I didn't think he would make it, but he did! They were so excited to give me their presents. Things they thought of all on their own! And they were great ideas! I really got spoiled.

Keira was insistant that she get me a mug. And what a great choice!

Sean said Kylie could only get this if she used it to massage me! The girls have already run the batteries out, using it on themselves!

Kaylum knows the way to Mommy's heart!!

And the cherry on top!! YAHOOOOO! My dream lens!
