Swing batta' swing!

At the end of every summer or early fall, we treck down to Palm Springs for the annual softball tournament held by Sempra Energy. It's a complete blast to watch and Jorge participates every year. What kind of wifey would I be to not follow along and sis-boom-ba my hubby while he's on the field? And now with our little one? She must learn the trait of pumping Daddy's motivation and heart of sports. Ah, little grasshoppa, you too shall learn.
 In the desert heat, we'll be there Dad!! And for those who really know me, this is utterly and completely a love thing! Heat + Paola = Disaster!




Ok... seriously... who runs like that? My hubby. That's who! My face would be so contorted and retarded looking while trying to attempt Mach 4. But no, he looks purrrrrrfect!


BooYah! There you have it. Mah man! You go boyyyy!


{Family Portrait Session} ~ Pop's Shoot

You have how many people in your family? I was glad we were on chat in FB when I thought this outloud because if she heard me, there would have been a hint of exhaustion tone in my voice. But I grapped my "big girl" underoos and said "Sure thing! Anything for your family!" And seriously, on the latter part, I would do it willingly because of the love I have for my fellow WaMu-ians. Only a select few, like the Delta Force, would get that. Let's keep it that way.... =D




This is Pop. He turned 74 and his request was to have a photograph of all his children, grandchildren, & great-grandchildren. Isn't he & Ma sweet in these next few photos?





More to come in another post with more photos from this shoot. Stay tuned...

{Family Portrait Session} ~ Eddie + Christine

Near and dear. These are the first two words that popped into my head as I thought about this family. They're my extended family. And anytime you have an extension of something, especially people, you know it darn special. Enough said... do you want me to break down to tears? Ye-ah... I'm sure you do! Not gonna happen!! Well... maybe just one tear...








I love you, my family, with all the emotion you could possibly drain out off me. Times spent with you is always so magicly delicious! And speaking of delicious - Boiling Crab. You (3...) and us 3. Anytime after 3 (apparently).


{Family Portait Session} ~ Glenn + Maria

The weekend we came back form our honeymoon, hubby and I decided to go house hunting. Not at all anticipating that we'd find one we'd commit to for at least 10 years. Story in a nutshell. (Look, I'm in a nutshell. What am I doing in this crazy nutshell?) We were in our spankin' new home in less than a month. The woman handing us our keys? None other than the incomparable, Maria!
Thanks, Maria, for helping us get in to the house we've now made into a home. I hope our photo session captured the essence of your family and the warmth I felt when I was with you all.









{Maternity Glow} ~ Mistica

Can this be at all fair? How can anyone be this stunning while in her third trimester. She rivals any celebrity and, in my opinion, beats any of them in the fiercly fabulous corner. Excuse me for my little hint of resentment... I know, it's not a good trait. It's downright dirty. But really??? I was, well, a WHALE OF A TALE. Gi-normous!! They said it would be "all baby." YEAH! RIGHT! Without further adieu, here she is:








Told you.... Absolutely stunning! Watch out world! Their baby girl is coming & if she's anything like her Mama... well... let's just say, "Sorry Dad!"
I GOT IT FROM MY MAMA!! (yup... I did it... I threw it in there!)
