Squeaky Friends

We had some new friends come in today!  Aren't they adorable?

Profile Picture Night - The Results. Have you been blogged?

We had an awesome turn out to our meetup and profile picture night, and met so many new people, saw a lot of people in person and met many of you for the first time.  We seriously think we will be doing this again!  Here's a few sneak peeks from the night.... a big thanks to all that stopped by!

Those that wanted to come but were not able to come by - we will see you next time!

An Eagle Scout Project - How YOU Can Help!

My next door neighbor is working on his Eagle Scout project.  If you have been around scouting you know this is no small feat!

I wanted to share with you this project, as it not only important for the Eagle Scout-to-Be next door, but also the troops that will eventually filter through the base that this project will benefit.  If you would like to help this troop out, I am happy to collect the DVD's and forward them. Here are the details of the project from my neighbor:

Eagle Scout Project

 

Troop 27

East,

Peoria

IL

 

My Eagle Scout Project is to collect used or new DVDs to send to our military service men and women overseas.

 

They need the DVDs because it is not safe to go outside for off duty activities because of snipers, bombs, mines and other terrorist activities.

 

Our goal is to collect 250 DVDs to make a video library.

 

How you can help:

 

 Donate new or used DVDs beginning July 1, and ending August 2, 2009.

 

Please let me know when you are ready to donate the DVDs and I will plan for pick up of your donated DVDs.

 

My Troop plans to mail the DVDs by September 1, 2009.

 

Thank you for helping with this Eagle Scout Project and supporting our Troops.

Lincoln's 200th Birthday Celebration-Bloomington!

We are so excited about this fun event that will be going on here in Downtown Bloomington on Sat, July 18, 2009. A representative from our studio will be at this event taking pictures of the children on the Lincoln memorial bench; located on the side of the McLean County Museum. We are so excited to be a part of this fair and to see all of the fun events that will be going on.

Some of the events at this fair will be tours, games, music, dancing, exhibitors, and Abraham and Mary Lincoln reenactors. There will also be horse drawn wagon rides, storytelling, scavanger hunts, and the Upper Limits climbing wall.

We can't wait to see what a fun even this will be and we hope to see you there. Don't forget to stop by and get your picture taken on the Lincoln bench!

Celebrating the 4th of July

In celebration of Independence Day I have a cute image to share that we did yesterday at the studio!

Photographed for an event coming up later this month, we welcomed into the studio a young lady and Mr. Lincoln, and here is an adorable storytelling panel that speaks for itself!

Old Times, Fun Times

I was talking about old T.V. show favorites, and came across this portion of an episode of Laverne and Shirley, and old favorite along with Gilligan's Island, Happy Days and Mork and Mindy.  Here's a clip for you!

We are looking for some new little faces to feature for an event we have coming up at the studio.  In particular, we are looking for 2-3 individual girls aged 5-12 and a sibling group of girls in the same age range.
