new talent and more family pics

I never did understand why photo studios can charge an extra $20 or more just to click the black and white button on their screen or for that matter why they can charge $40 for one 8x10. Then I realized its because we are all suckers! When we see those pictures of our cute little bundles, our common sense goes right out the window and we agree to pay hundreds of dollars every 2 or 3 months for pictures of our kids who refuse to smile anyway. Well... I have decided its time to stick it to the man! I recently purchased a cheap version of photoshop and enrolled in a class. I also found an awesome girl who not only takes pictures, she also edits them and gives you the cd at no extra cost! jackpot! So here is my latest photoshop creation of our first family pictures. eat your heart our "professionals"!:)

Babysitting anyone???

Ok I need your help here. I have randomly been offered a job... kind of out of the blue...and I would really like to be able to take said job! Here's the catch... the hours are Monday 8-5 Tues 8-noon and Friday 8-5. I have Fridays all taken care of but I need a babysitter For Monday and Tues. I don't know anyone who is available during these hours who doesnt already have other obligations. If any of you know someone in Logan who would be willing to do this PLEASE Let me know! I have to give them my answer by tomorrow evening (10/24/08). I have checked around and most daycare providers charge around $20 bucks a day. I would be willing to pay $30 per day and $20 per half day. thats $200 a month for 1 1/2 days a week. I really don't want to put Kenadee in a traditional daycare if I don't have to! So if you know anyone in Logan who would be a good babsitter and looking for a little extra cash please let me know ASAP!! Thank you all!!
