Please...and THANKFUL.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!



...a few things I am thankful for...



An art I love
...sometimes hate,
strive to perfect,
and am inspired by every day.




Thinking local.

I have always loved to cook. But not
until after reading this book had I put
much thought/effort into seeking out
foods that are good to the masses
and great for my family.

Long Beach has many wonderful farmer markets and I'm
able make better choices for my family
far easier than I'd ever expected.
Food for thought. 




Technology...if I have to - and I do.

I was ignorant to the amount of savvy I'd need
to start my business. I always say I'm more of an artist
than I am a business woman. That is quickly becoming 
a statement of the past.
I am so thankful for all the patience my friends and 
 family have shown me as I race along the learning
curve of a digital business owner.





Keith.
Thankful is not even close.
I adore you
I learn from you
laugh with you
dream with you
life 
is 
better
...with you.
Thank you for loving me.





Finding a balance.

24 hours...after sleep, emails, phone calls,
editing, working, and shooting there isn't much time left.

Without my husband I would be a crazy person. Thank you
Keith for giving my life balance when I can't.






Coffee.
Dear Lord, THANK YOU!!!



Family.
Love you all so very much!



The Lafko Family Holiday



Hello little tooth!











My hubby Keith was a great help!
He adores this little guy
and honestly can't keep his paws off him : ) 



This costume was a fantastic find Joyce! If not for daddy, 
he would have just look like a sad little roo (not a fan
of mommy's 'great find'). Bruce always can
get Sebastian to laugh : )



Oh Sebastian...could you be
any cuter!?
