Busy, Busy weekend

I can't get over how busy my weekend ended up being. I didn't have to work this weekend, but that didn't matter. On Saturday was the Scrapbook convention. I go every year or in this case twice a year. This is the first time that it has been in Phoenix. What this meant is that I would be driving much farther than normal to check out what they considered the latest and greatest. What really happened though is the vendor faire was full of things that I had already seen in the local stores. I took three classes and they were all good. This year I took intermediate classes, next year I'm only taking the advanced ones. Not that I'm that good, but just that they were still too simple for my tastes. I did still manage to buy a few things, but I promised myself that it would only be what I hadn't seen in the stores here.

I did manage to get some knitting done inbetween my classes though. I made sure to take the Sheep Tote with me. I had a four hour break between two classes and Elisabet was meeting me for lunch, but I still had time to kill. While sitting there knitting, I met a lady who had come up from Tucson for the convention. Turns out she had worked at the preschool that Jared is going to now. Talk about small world. This one is even better. In the last class that I took, Prima Got Flowers, there was another TA in the class who looked awefully familiar. About the middle of the class, we both said to each other that we looked familiar. Turns out we had the same teacher for 5/6th grade. How funny is that???? Now if only I could get my mom to find my class picture from that year.

On Sunday, I met up with Elisabet, her sister and niece for some photo opportunities. I've been wanting to do some photos of a little kid on a bridge and they were up for it. Here is how it came out: What do you think of it? I only have 150 more pictures to proof, hahahaha. I got a lot of relationship poses with Maggie and her mom. I'm a casual shooter, not into poses. They never seem to work, especially with little ones.
