Little Lincoln

Well, it is the start of a new week!  This weekend we had a nice relaxing, stay-at-home, let's finally finish our taxes kind of weekend.  We were talking about how this month last year we expanded our family because "Coco needed a playmate." Good excuse right?... It is funny how much things can change in a year - so I have accumulated some of my favorite photos of Linc over the past year.  For those of you who don't know, we have two long haired chihuahuas. Coco (the princess) is our laid back, snuggle bug and is going to be 6 years old this summer.  Linc (the crazy man) is the playful puppy that gets into things and chews everything he isn't supposed to, but boy does he make us laugh!  

The first time we met him, we knew he was going home with us.

And then we got him home and he was so scared he just hid under the bookshelf! Poor guy.

He had the cutest markings and ears way to big for his head :)

He would (and still does) follow Coco everywhere...she tolerates it.

He had to get comfortable in the bag because we travel on airplanes a lot.

 

He slowly started losing a lot of his dark makings...

But luckily kept his awesome handle-bar mustache!

There is no one he loves more than his sister...

Yep, he is a total ham!

Yosemite

Hello!

I am so excited to share our latest west coast adventure with you! This past weekend Tyler and I drove to Yosemite National Park to stay in a little cabin in the woods :) We had the pleasure of sharing the cabin with our friends and their sweet baby girl. In contrast to the pictures I posted from Muir Woods, these photos have not been touched in photoshop or lightroom (except converting to B/W).  It just goes to show the true beauty nature has to offer. 

I was in awe of the massive rock structures with stunning waterfalls streaming down them.  We could not have asked for better weather - clear skies, sunny in the 60s, but still had a crisp breeze.  Then, Sunday morning, when we woke up to leave, it started snowing! It was so beautiful and made for some wonderful wintery wonderland photos! Here are some of my FAVORITE shots from the weekend...

On the way into the Valley

I think I'll frame this one for the house :)

 Hence the name "Mirror Lake"

 Yep, the puppies got to come along too!

A pretty picturesque way to say goodbye.

I am already thinking about when we can go back :)

Whitney Alyssa Product Shots

Yay, it is already Tuesday! Can we just skip right to Friday this week?! So, I am working on getting out a line sheet, which is a packet I can send to prospective stores so that they can see the wholesale/retail prices, style, and descriptions of products.  I got together with Patricia Rossi (yep, another HUGE thank you to Patricia Rossi Photography for the wonderful product shots!) to get some great detail shots of the new Spring/Summer Collection.  Here are a few of my favorites!

And if you like these, be sure to check out the Whitney Alyssa Facebook Page to see all of them!

Enjoy :)
