Laguna Beach

On Sunday we spent the day at 1000 steps beach in Laguna Beach. Every year Jeff's Aunt and Uncle rent a beach house right on the corner of PCH and Cress. There entire family came down this year, including Meagan, Eric and their girls who live in Ohio. Ethan loves playing with all the girls. There are five of them, ranging in ages from 12 to 7. We played at the beach and had a wonderful BBQ in the evening. It really is a beautiful place!

Jessica Sprague

If you haven't discovered Jessica Sprague's site yet, check her out! http://www.jessicasprague.com/ I have been following her BLOG for over a year now. One Friday a month she devotes her post to what she calls Photoshop Friday. These are great tips and tricks for using Photoshop. She is a PRO! She also has wonderful editing, hybrid and digital scrapping classes. For her two year anniversary of her site and her amazing classes, she offered a free class for photo editing. It is a two week long course. I unfortunately was on vacation during the class, so I am doing it after the fact but here are examples of the masks, brushes, tints, and frame ups from the first five days.

Huge Fan!!!

Ok I am excited! I am going to see Harry Potter VI tomorrow and I can't wait! Yes I am a huge fan. So I had to do a shout out! If Ethan had been in town we would have been a couple of those nutty people in line at midnight last night!
